A moment of silence felt very uncomfortable with complexly knotted dendrites of unspoken expressions that she carried .
He did not look into her eyes, she could not look at his face either. Another moment without words. Then she spoke, "know what, I bought this new purse". He did not have a say, after a moment, maybe realizing the need of remark, he said, "you have a good choice".
She talked to him many times before. But she never could say what actually she wanted to say. Sometimes they fought. He did not talk a lot with her like he talked with others. Perhaps, he felt little awkward, everybody thought she was little weird.
She came to her balcony to see him, she watched him passing by, she waited to have a chance to walk with him but never could express herself. When he seemed stalking women in front of her, she always felt sad.
Now , she invited him so she must give him a reason, she felt. "I invited some other friends too, I was willing to through a surprise coffee party but nobody showed up, so sad. Thanks you came"
He said,"Guess I must go now"
She answers quickly, "Okay"
"Bye", He said as he stood, walked some steps and waved.
She watched him going, walking down the street until he disappeared. She did not tell him that she was leaving. All she ever spoke with him had no meanings. Now she thought that it was her nature and she was not comfortable with her own nature.
She wept.
She packed her belongings and called the taxi.
