MY LIFE ISN'T THAT CRAZY, HOW YOU MIGHT THINK
My life is ordinary life like almost everyone’s in my age. I’m twenty years old grown up woman, who is working in very strict company, which offers help to almost everyone, who needs some type of help. It’s a non-profit organization, so I don’t have a huge salary, but it’s kinda making me feel happy, so that’s the main reason, why I’m working here.

Because I’m not a type of person, who likes to go on party, when the weekend is in the fresh beginning, I rather go to the library, where I love to spend lots of time on Friday afternoons. Today I had more time for the spending moment in the library than usual, so before I went there, I’ve headed to café, where I bought my favorite latte with two sugars. Since the moment I’ve entered the café, I noticed a new face there. It was young grown up man with brown glasses, green cotton cap, grey sweater, brown tight pants and his figure looked sporty. While I was standing beside the table, where my coffee was about to pop up, I couldn’t take my yes of his positive smile, which he had during looking into his phone. I felt like I was in another different world, because his personality charmed me. I was thinking, if I should go to talk to him and get to know him better, but I was too shy for this action, so when my coffee was ready to go, I grabbed it fastly, paid for it and tried to go out without him noticing, that I was staring at him and admired him for his look.

But as always, when you try to do something on purpose, something comes into the way and it ruins everything, what you’ve planned and it happened to me as well. When I was about to leave the café, some stupid tall man bounced into me – mainly into my right hand, which was holding the coffee – and in the end my whole coffee ended up on the café’s floor and my jacket.
,,What the heck?! Where were you looking, when I was going out of here?”
I became a bit angry and at the same moment I totally stopped paying attention to the attractive new man in the café.
,,I’m sorry madam, I wasn’t looking, who was in front of me. I just went straight to the ordering place here…”
His kind sound of his voice calmed me down, so I added something.
,,Well, next time, please, watch your steps. I don’t wanna be leached out in coffee again.”
After my words both of us laughed and second after one of café’s waitresses came to us and cleaned the mess under us. Because I was one coffee less, the nice man asked me.
,,May I buy you new one? I wanna apologize to you for my fault through this…”
,,Yeah, sure. It would be nice of you ammmm…?”
,,Jungkook, my name is Jungkook.”
,,Alright Kook, nice to meet you after all. I’m Sarae.”
Both of us smirked at each other and then I ordered my coffee again, but Kook paid for it. When I got my coffee, I came to him and said.
,,Thank you for it and perhaps see you somewhere again.”
,,Yeah, that would be great. See you Sarae.”
After we said goodbye to each other, I looked at the table, where the charming man was sitting and when I looked there, I saw, how he was staring at me without blinking. I just smiled at him, looked down and left the café. What I didn’t know was, that he was staring at me since the moment my coffee accident happened and he didn’t look away at all.

After I got home, because I needed to change, I played my favorite music in the background and didn’t pay attention to anything, because my head was full of the charming man and Jungkook, cuz after all, both of them were nice and I wanted to get to know them better, but no one of them gave me their socials or anything, so I had to believe in fate and hope, that I will meet them again.

After I’ve changed, I paused the music and left to the library, even though I didn’t have much time for reading, because it was too late and the library was about to close soon. When I got there, I noticed, that not far from the library was happening street concert, where at least one orchestra was planning and one band was preparing for their period of time, during which they were about to show their music style. Because I’m big fan of this, I decided to go their and for once not visit my lovely library.

Only a several minutes after I sat on the chair there, I noticed, that the charming man from the café, was sitting only two tables from me and he was looking at me again.
*my thoughts during that moment*
,,Am I only delusional or I caught his eye and he wanna get to know me? Oh shit, he’s coming to me…!”
I fastly started to pay attention to everything around me and I tried to pretend, that I didn’t notice him at all. When he was next to my table, he said.
,,Good early evening madam, how I can see, both of us love music, so I hoped, that you won’t reject me and I would like to ask you for a little dance over there, while the orchestra plays. Will you reject me?”
*my thoughts*
,,I'm speechless. He saw me once in café and now, he wants to dance with me in front of playing orchestra?"
I was shocked and it caused a few seconds of awkward silence, but after taking my shits together, I answered to his question.
,,Why not? I would love to, but I have to inform you, that I’m horrible dancer, so you have to be very patient with me, alright?”
He just smiled and then he handed me his left palm to inform me, that he accepted it and he wants to dance with me. I gave him my right palm, he helped me to stand up and after that he walked me on the parquet.

The song, which he chose as our song, was “At last” by Etta James. I love that song and it made me smile whole time. We were just swaying to the rhythm of the song and it was so peaceful and calming. His presence made me feel even calmer and happier. I was confused by this, because it was unbelievable, how one human being can make me feel like this, even though we don’t anything about each other. After the song ended, we didn’t leave the parquet. Next song, which the orchestra started playing, was “Can’t help falling in love with you “ by Elvis Presley. I started to feel shy a bit, because that was next love song, which they were playing and I was dancing on it with a total stranger. Because I wanted to get to know him better, I asked.
,,May I ask you, what’s your name? I really wonder, what you are up to with the total stranger like me, because we just met and now we’re dancing on love songs, so…”
Both of us laughed silently and then he answered.
,,I just was amazed by you in the café, so I’ve decided to give it a try and hoped, when we’ll meet again, you won’t reject me and you'll let me to get to know you, because you have something, what charmed me somehow.”
I couldn’t believe, that he was feeling same feelings like me. It had to be the fate.
,,You're completely expressing same thoughts to me, what I was thinking about you in the café few hours ago…I can’t believe, that you’re feeling this way as well.”
,,Well, I’m happy, that you feel it same like me. What about I keep you a company at the table, after we’ll be done dancing and we’ll begin with getting to know each other? I can see, that I caught your eye as well, so I won’t mind, if you aren’t against it?”
,,Of course. Change your table and I’ll welcome you near to me.”
His eyes showed me, how happy he was, so I couldn’t tell him no.

After the song ended, we headed to my table, but we found out, someone took my place, so we had to find different one and thankfully, it wasn’t too hard, so we fastly took our seats and then we started our conversation. During our conversation, he told me lots of stuff about him. For example he’s dancer and dance teacher, he’s twenty-eight, very active human being, who tries to make his own music, but he loves dancing more, so it’s his priority number one. I was eating his every word, which he let out of his mouth. His voice was like a lullaby for my ears and I felt really comfy around him. I could be myself, didn’t have to pretend, how happy I was, because my work was sucking happy mood out of me and I didn’t have much time for myself, so this moment was filling me with positive energy, which I really needed.

It was almost midnight, when I decided to look at my watches, what was the time.
,,Oh Lord, it’s midnight, I have to go to the work tomorrow…I’m so sorry, but I have to go…It was really nice to spend this amount of time with you.”
I was about to leave, when he grabbed my right wrist tightly, looked into my eyes and told me.
,,Please, give me at least your number. I wanna see you again, so thanks to that, we can plan it for some upcoming day.”
My heart fluttered, when he asked me for my phone number.
,,Oh, yeah, sure. Give me your phone and I’ll put it into your contacts.”
,,Okay, here.”
When he handed me his unlocked phone, I saw a pic of him and some girl on his homescreen wallpaper. My smile immediately disappeared, but because I didn’t wanna show him, that I was thinking about more than friendship in the future, second after my smile disappeared, I put the smile on my lips again. I opened his contacts, wrote my number there and saved it under nickname “stranger in the night”. After I gave him his phone back, I only smirked at him and left him there.
