New Opportunities
Amara kept doing her job, wiping down tables, clearing plates, taking orders but all the while she kept glancing back at that strange boy. She notices him looking at something through a window, he wipes away the dust and Amara can hear a train go past, the boy obviously sees something because he gets up and walks out of the cafe.
He'll be back, he is the one who asked me out. She reminded myself.
Amara cleaned up and finished her shift, she grabbed her jacket and went outside, looking around for the boy but the only other person she can see is Mary locking the doors behind her.
"Are you alright hon?" Mary asked Amara.
"Yes, I'm fine thank you," she smiled in return.
"Well, I best be off dear but I will see you tomorrow ok?" She says, "You can tell me how that date of yours went." She winked and walked off.
Amara stood there for a while before it started to get cold she pulled her warm jacket over herself, she probably should have brought a warmer one.
She kept her eye out for the boy with his messy black hair and glasses but all she can see is a dirty subway station.
Amara sighed, "He's gone."
She still decided to wait a few more minutes but he still doesn't come.
He is a regular maybe he will come later this week and I can talk to him.
Amara turn away from the cafe and start to walk when she heard someone shout, "Hey!"
She turned around to see who it was.
"Hey? are you okay? you look upset and why are you waiting here? the cafe closed half an hour ago."
"Um..do I know you?" Amara said trying to avoid the questions.
"Oh! No sorry, my name is Noah Rodwell, and you are?"
"My name is Amara Caine."
"So why are you standing out here in the cold?" Noah asked as he started walking.
Amara faltered unsure whether to follow or not, what the hell? she thought to herself, I just got stood up what have I got to lose?
She decided to follow him, Amara replied to his question simply " I got stood up."
"Oh-" he said "How long have you known him?"
"Well I don't actually know his name but he is a regular at the cafe," She replied.
"Any guy who doesn't tell you their name sounds sketchy, it sounds like he was up to something."
" Right...up to something.." Amara trailed off a thought coming to her mind...
Noah checked his watch, oh crap! I need to be at my parent's place for dinner, I really got to go but it was nice meeting you, Amara!" He walked quickly away.
"Nice meeting you too!" She continued along the road until she got to her car and got in. She sat there forming a plan in my mind.
Maybe...maybe I should find information about that guy, I can surely find something. And he is a regular at the cafe so he may even come back.
Right, it's decided she was going to find out who this guy is.
