Reaching the Unreachable

One day, I was walking into Starbucks  to get my normal, Tall White Chocolate Mocha please. I go into this Starbucks so much that they know my face, my order, and my name. Just kidding, I have been introduced by someone special thats how they know me.  Ms. I already know you order. The cashier said with a smile on her face. Thank you, I replied with a chuckle and paid for my drink. As I was waiting patiently for them to make my drink, I did a little people watching. A mixture of people were there. A business man that is constantly on the phone and furiously typing on his laptop, A woman reading by the window and simultaneously she would take a sip and contemplate about life, and of course there is that one man that is just there to people watch. The person he was watching was me. I did not pay him any attention.  Tall White Chocolate Mocha! the Barista screamed. Oh, thats me. I replied. Have a nice day Ms. I would say come back to see us but you are one of our loyal customers. We will see you again. I replied with a laugh and a slight thank you and walked off to my normal seat at my normal corner by my favorite window.

I started reading a book while taking a sip here and there. I let my eyes escape from my book for a quick second and saw the "people watcher" glance at me and then try to play it off. I laughed a little and went back to my book. I felt someone move to my table. He said,  "Hey, I saw you staring at me. I thought I should say hello." So that's how you get your women?, I asked with a smile. Only to those I am interested in. He replies. I laughed . You are only interested in something you see and not with someone you know anything about. That is completely logical.  He smiled and said , "You are one of those hard to get women."  I took a sip from my drink and replied, "I am not hard to get. That's just a game I play. I am unreachable."  "Unreachable?" "Yes, and you are one of those I THINK I can get whoever I want type of men."  He replied, "No! I'm not". 

The way you approached me gave yourself away. You came to me with a line to break that ice and you got passed the most important question. You know, "are you in a relationship?" or "are you currently dating someone". Which shows me that you do not care about relationships. You attack what you desire without asking about the full consequences. You try to reach the unreachable and take what does not belong to you. You are stealing away a lovers first love,but you are not the one to care.
 He replied," you observe to much about people." "I examine the truth of people" I replied. Everything I do here is a routine and that routine is around one person that is present center stage of my heart. 

 Explain?

I know the people who work here. Why? Because he used to work here. My drink selection is something he introduced to me. This book was bought by him for me to read.  This place is also the place we first officially met. The place where it all began. My lover used to perform here. He is a man with many words and a great ear for musically perfection. This watch and this jacket was given to me by him and he will be here in two seconds so you better run along to your "people staring".

Well, I am so sorry to walk on someone else's territory.

His territory was watched but not walked upon. You never got close enough and never will.

He shook my hand and rub it for a second and said "He is one lucky man to have a strong woman like you. You hold you own ground and walk to the rhythm of your own drum. Very attractive. I wish I had a woman like you."

I shook his hand and replied, "Well real women can not be duplicated. When you stop searching for the woman God made for you, that's when love shows up. And also I am the lucky one. I was just at the right place at the right time searching for nothing that later became something. Our eyes met and later our hearts connected. That something became a friendship that transformed into love. So my advice to you is to stop searching and please.. next time.. ask questions that will lead you out of a arkward situation.

He laughed and replied, " I understand you completely Ms." He walked away and went back to his seat.

I sipped on my drink and my lover came into the door. Hey baby. Hey sweetheart..
Who was that ?

Just someone trying to reach the unreachable but I held my ground. He is no longer but you are forever the one I will be interested in. So anyways, where were we?

Thats my baby. He kissed me on the forehead and then we continued the rest of the day sipping on drinks and exchanging conversations with laughter.


I love you more than life itself.. Dedicated to someone special..
