Meet Me Halfway

With 0.138 KD in my bank account, I didn't have much to do today.
I didn't want to stay in the house and do nothing. Before leaving, I asked my sister for a book to read, thinking I'd go to starbucks and sit and read there. So I took the book, put on a pair of jeans, kept the sweater I was already wearing, wore a jacket on top of it, and grabbed a scarf, my bag and I was out the door.
Mainly, I left the house at 6 pm to be available to my friend who was supposed to see me around then. But typical him, he didn't call.
I went to starbucks mishrif, thinking that it would be empty. WRONG! I walked in, saw all these people sitting around, the only available seats are on the wooden chairs. I turned around and left. I was thinking, 'a place that's secluded and requires no dough'. I was on the street with the jam3iya on my right and the park up ahead. So I thought, 'hey, why not sit in the parking, switch off the car, open a window and read?', so that's what I did. When I got there, empty. A few parked cars here and there, but no other movement except the McDonald's commotion, but I had parked at the other end. I open the book and read a few pages. I notice that cars are coming in in couples. And the ones that aren't are the ones parking too close to the other cars. So I look up from the book, and turn around. I see a girl next to a Volvo talking to a guy in a Mercedes who has his door open and it seems like she's yelling and trying to grab his phone. I see an obese girl with her neon random accessories walking with a tiny shrimp-like boy in a dishdasha. I see a girl and a guy sitting in a car together. I see an Infiniti's break lights suddenly come on, parked next to a small Ford, but no other movement.
I turn back to the girl yelling at the guy. I open the back seat door so I can hear the conversation, since the book wasn't entertaining me so much as a lover's quarrel would. I hear bits and peices of the conversation, something about him talking to other girls and her demanding him to erase their numbers. Her going on and on about his "loyalty" (her word) to her, how can she trust him and devoted to him while he's talking to all these other girls? HOW COULD HE DO THIS TO HER WHEN THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE IN A SERIOUS RELATIONSHIP. It got boring and repetitive. The guy is SO obviously a sleezebag who really doesn't CARE about her. It's SO OBVIOUS I just wanted to SHAKE her and be like HELLOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Your "boyfriend"? The one in the green vest and nothing under with red trackpants?????? HIS A DOUCHEBAG WHO DOESN'T CARE HE JUST WANTS TO GET SOME AND YOU'RE OBVIOUSLY NOT DOING ANYTHING FOR HIM!
It ended up with her getting in his car for an hour, then running out and speeding off into the night. I don't know much else, and I lost interest. The thing that made me laugh, though, was the fat chick with her 3gaidi boyfriend who were temishying in the parking lot, noticing my open door (but not me) and saying "umbeeeh el bab maftoo7" hahahahhaa my face was right there and she couldn't even NOTICE!
I think I have discovered a new career choice, private investigator.
Overall, it was pretty peaceful. I stayed for about two hours and a half. I read a lot. I haven't read in a while, so it was good. =D

So, ttfn.
