I caught a glimpse through the window.
The face was everything but pretty - sunken eyes, cigarette-stained broken teeth, and a puckered scar that compelled my gaze towards those thin cruel lips.
Yet this was the person I had to meet.
'Dammit,' I though to myself, 'never again will I let my mum organize me a blind date.'
As he approached the door I decided to hide in the toilet and after awhile I'll sneak out behind a waiter or something. As I finished thinking of my intricate yet simple and needlessly complex scheme I heard him call out my name, so i spun around i saw the most hideous looking face I have had my eyes lay upon.
"Danielle," it said. "Hey, I'm David, your mum planned this date but I already have plans today so here is fifty dollars for you." As he out down a fifty dollar note
"Also if your mum ask about us just say it will never work out," it said, then he walked away.
In that brief moment I felt as if I fell in love because i saw past his puss-filled face. Past his behemoth boils. Past his several infected scars. Past his bushy beard. Past his mangled hair. I saw the most mysterious eyes filled with what seem all the wonders of the world piercing me like the fog lights on a four wheel drive. 'I'm in love," I thought, 'even its hideous won't stop me.'
I ran out of my house yelling out his name. I ran like a cheetah down my apartment block. Across the street. Down another block. Into a cab still yelling. Cab driver yelling at me to quiet down. Out of the cab. Stop for a hot dog and a coke. Running up his apartment stairs. Banging on his door. Running down his apartment stairs. Into a public toilet. Running up his apartment stairs.
I saw him at his door as he looked towards me he ran back into his apartment. As I approached his door it was open. I called out his name to no avail. However the window was opened so i quickly looked out to see his splattered remain on the ground below.
After running so much I casually walked to the lift. Waited for the lift to go up. Waited for the lift to go down. Walked out and laid by his side, quietly sobbing away. Suddenly I felt drowsy as the police and ambulance arrived, then i felt someone shake up the i woke up.
I woke up to the same most mysterious eyes filled with what seem all the wonders of the world piercing me like the fog lights on a four wheel drive, but these belonged to the most beautiful face my eyes have ever laid upon.
"Danielle," he said, "Wake up"
As I sat up I asked "Who are you?" He replied "It's me David!" "Where is everyone?" I questioned him as no one was around in the coffee house. "Well you were snoring pretty loudly," he sniggered. "Well let's find another place," I suggested.
And they walked out hand in hand only for a out of control bus to run them over.
