placid

Today was a tad more relaxed compared to the last time. Everyone seemed to be more placid and quiet, keeping more to themselves. The music is very dancey and techno, and the relaxed atmosphere is almost uncomfortably out of place. Due to the contrasting mood and music.

There is a young fellow of about 25, Donald, sitting alone. He is wearing a dark grey cotton t-shirt and he has a very melancholic temperament. Almost nervous. He seems to be awaiting someone's arrival. Perhaps a date? A friend? I pass by him and smile, he seems a tad shocked that I do, but kindly returns the smile. He scrolls through something on his phone, while tapping his finger on his thigh.

I follow my gaze as I stand in line, to a young lady with dirty blonde hair and a white and grey pin striped shirt. She is lounging casually on the love seat scrolling through her laptop. I order my apple cider and take a seat above everyone, on the second floor. I see a young man sitting across reading a book, I see his very invested expression on his face. He's very unaware of how into the story he is. It's very inviting. You want to read what he is reading. He has dark brown hair that is pushed back and large framed glasses, he is sporting green cargo shorts, and a grey DC shirt. (Not the comic DC)

I look around and I see a young couple sitting across from one another. They're smiling in a shared moment. I notice they seem to be very flirtatious with one another. Perhaps a new couple? or friends, acquaintances who have a mutual attraction? They sip their drinks and continue to banter about whatever it was they were talking about beforehand.

A girl sitting besides the happy couple, Beki, is wearing a maroon Aggie shirt and black sweat pants, her hair is in a top not and she is reading something quietly on her laptop. She seems to grow somewhat irritated, then she packs up and leaves bursquley.


A new couple walk in hand in hand, the girl has wavy dirty blonde hair and a sanguine disposition. The male is tall with a black baseball cap backward on his head. She is doting on him and smiling, as he doesn't seem to be aware of her admiration of him. He orders something as she stands next to him in a state of bliss. She seems utterly head over heels for this fellow. They sit in the area with a few seats and wait on their order, the girl is laughing and smiling and the boy smirks. He leans in and kisses her and they sort of stay in front of each other's faces pecking for a bit, til the server calls their order. They grab their drinks and walk out hand in hand once again.

I see the other couple standing up to leave. As they depart I see them go separate ways without a kiss or any form of physical affection.

I look out for the young man, Donald once again. He is with a young girl about his age, with her dark hair in a low ponytail and button up shirt. He seems a bit at ease but still with a bit of tension in his back. The girl is smiling as Donald is explaining something, and gesticulating nervously.

Soon I check the time and see that my next class starts soon. So I finish up my apple cider, and head out the door.
