Chapter 1
It's the second week of August. It's hot as fuck in the streets, but the worst thing you can do a 12th of August at 7pm in Madrid is go into the subway. Fucking melting here. Plus, what the hell is wrong with people that sweat so much? Like, please… Anyway, I've been coming here every summer to work at the bar of my Spanish family for like 5 years. I know Madrid like the palm of my hand by now.
The thing about subway is that there's so many curious stories that you can read directly from peoples faces, or conversations… I was in my way to work, when 3 girls entered in the wagon, one of them was Spanish, the other two were very American… I mean, only an American would say "like" in the same sentence 68 times. The sat just right in front of me. Suddenly a boy yelled something to the Spanish one that apparently was called "Rachel". She smiled and went to say hi, tugging one of her friends with her, saying them that the boys wanted to meet them.
One of them went with her, but the other stayed put, with a "don't worry guys, you go.." and a little smile, then she looked at her phone. I was curious, why would she stay there, alone… Most girls of 21 years old would go and meet some boys, right? Even more if she was in a foreign country…
I went back to my book, but there was something that told me I couldn't just let this go. It was such a common scene… Any of you probably has witnessed something similar on the subway. I probably have already. It was something about this day, about this exact moment, about this girl, that I just couldn't let go. So I looked at her one more time, I closed my book, and moved to where her friends were sitting beside her.
And this is how the story began…
"Not with the feeling of meeting some boys?" I said with my arms crossed and just for her to hear.
She jumped a little, surprised that someone was talking to her "uh?" she said frowning and looking right at me turning her head a bit.
We locked eyes for a second "I mean, I totally get it. Believe me, I do…" I said laughing a little. She was so confused, I could tell. But I noticed the corned of her lips turning upward a little.
"Who are you?" she said curious.
I arched my eyebrows and smiled. It was on. "Not feeling to meet some boys that are friends of your friend, but you are up to meet a total stranger girl?" She laughed, and nodded. "I like it, I like it"
Just then an old man entered the wagon. Since all the sits had been taken, I quickly stood up and let him sit "Siéntese, siéntese por favor" (please, please sit..) I put myself just in front of her now, but stood up. She looked up at me with her eyes frowned again "Where are you from?" she asked.
I smirked this time, "Does it matter?" I said.
"Are you flirting with me?" she said with kind of a sensual voice and turning her head a bit.
I smiled "Oh totally.." I said laughing when I saw her friends were coming back and that my stop was the next. "Your friends are coming" she looked at them and then back at me again.
"Briiitt! Come and meet the boys, they are throwing a party tonight" I heard. Her name was something with Brit- Britney? Brittany? Brithan? Wait, did that name really exist?
We arrived to my stop, Tribunal, so I took her arm and said "Have fun meeting the boys tonight Britt." I winked and I left.
Hi everyone!
This is something that actually kinda happened to me, so I thought I'll give it a try and put it into words.
Chapters will be waaay longer if I continue, I just want to know if someone was a bit interested :))
