The Coffee Date

                        -Mohammed Jabalpurwala

I felt like it was destiny

I saw you and you saw me

Yet again it was a rainy day

You told me "should I go first if you may?"

At the coffee counter of course

"Should have said Hi," I said in remorse

I then went ahead after you

With not the slightest chance to ever see you

But there you were yet another day

Sipping that coffee gazing the rain

"Hi, do you remember me?"

Tears in your eyes, I did not see

"Shouldn't have said it that loud you fool"

That's how I started sinking in the overthinking pool

Disaster, distress, debacle this was

Wait, why am I panicking without a cause?

"Hey, I am sorry why are you crying?"

In my head, I thought "please please please don't reject, I am just trying."

But then a big laugh came out

"Wait did I say that line out loud?"

She said, "You still got ink stain on your face!"

how did I not see that in 2 days

But that was a great start to a conversation at last

The rains grew loud and the wind blew fast

Now there is complete silence, what else to talk I wonder

Suddenly the sky roared with thunder.

She gasped and I held her hand,

"Hey don't worry the chaos of the sky shall not touch the land"

"Hey in any way help you need might?"

My broken grammar made her confide.

The reason for her tears shall I not say

But I gave her a smile that lasted for the entire day.

And we met again times many more,

Happily ever after is true after all

T'was the rainy day of June 8th,

This was our first coffee date.
