Chapter 5

Roman's POV

I took a deep breath, &

My way towards her table.

I cleared my throat, she looked

Up at me and smiled. What's a pretty

Girl like you, doing alone? I asked her.

Well, I was suppose to meet Jon. She explain.

He stood you up? I asked. No, Roman he's not

Like that, she said slapping my leg playfully. Fine, fine.

I said putting out both hands in front of me, as if a sign of

Surrender. At least let me buy you a drink. I offered. Fine.

She giggled. You know what we should do? She asked. What?

I asked turning to look at her. Play pool! She exclaimed. Do you

know how to play? I asked. No, do you? She asked. A little. I told her.

Great, let's go! She said pulling my hand. Ok here's how it works. I began.

If you hit a ball that has a low number on it, Hit all the balls with low

numbers on them & then hit the eight ball to win. Same thing if you

hit a ball with a high number. But, if your opponent hits all their balls

First & the eight ball they win, I finished. Ok? I asked her. Yeah, I think

so she said nodding. Ok show you how to play. She grabbed a cue stick,

I got behind her to help her guide the stick, since it was her first time

playing the game. Um.. What I do now? She asked. & for a moment our

eyes met, & the only thing that seemed to matter were us. Then we both

looked away. um.. just target & hit I said helping guide the cue stick for her.

These two best friends spent the rest of the night playing pool & drinking.

Although, these two friends were happy, there someone that who wasn't it.
