I just downloaded the Booky app and a world full of BOTOs (Buy One Take One) opened for me. I was dumped a few years back and I find it difficult to start any kind of relationship since then. By seeing these BOTO offers, I wish I had someone to share these and save half my money. Oh well, this is my choice.
A few selection and voila, I decided to get myself a BOTO milk tea, one for me and one for myself. I left hell, I mean the office, for awhile and went straight to the mall.
It is so damn hot outside that I wish I waited a few hours more before giving in to my milk tea craving. But, hey, me and myself want our milk tea!
The cool breeze from the aircon of the mall cooled me down as I enter the automatic door. Clumsy as I am, I bumped into something, a man fixing his untied shoelaces. I apologized and went on. Our milk tea is waiting.
As I fall in line before the counter of the milk tea shop, the shoelace man(SLM) was standing in front of me. I assessed his physique from his back. A few inches taller than me, nicely trimmed hair, red eyeglasses, average body size, lean but not too athletic.
He ordered two Wintermelon Milk Tea, same as what I am about to order less the Booky promo. He paid full and went straight to one of the tables. I ordered, paid half for the two, and got myself a table, too.
I can see SLM from my table. He looked so serious and patiently waiting for someone. His order was delivered to his table but he did not touch them yet. I got mine and started to sip. He looked my way and just stared at me. I stared back innocently. I realized he is a lot older than me but his magnetic, deep-seated eyes say otherwise. His phone rang and that stopped the trance-like moment between us.
He answered it and let his caller do the talking for a couple of minutes and eventually ended the call with a "No worries, I will be fine. Bye". He got one of the straws, and started sipping his milk tea. I had finished my first milk tea, got the other straw and sipped my second one. SLM looked at me and grinned. I know he thinks I am fat because I eat and drink for two. The hell I care!
I finished my second as he finished his first. Oh my! I feel so full but satisfying. I put a smile on my chubby face and I know I feel happy. Fascinated by it, he grabbed his second and went to my table. I was dumbfounded.
