May 2nd, 2002 If you could freeze a moment in time, what one would you pick? Oh I don't know, don't make it complicated...just pick one - anything. Ok, I'll go first... It would have to be about a year ago or so. Some Saturday morning, Union Station, killing time before a bus would take me away for a couple of days. Standing in the open area with all the white and black marbled tiles, by that windy staircase. I had my weight shifted to one side, knee bent, my index finger carelessly placed at the edge of my bottom lip as he walked over slowly, taking his sweet time as usual. I tried to put on a look of distain for making us late but couldn't help but hide the smile that kept creeping out. "Whooah. Hoochie Zara!" he yelled out at the distance between us. I quickly drew my hand away from my lips and straighted up tensing as if he'd said something out of place, a look of shock appearing on my face. "I mean...I DO have a serious girlfriend. Don't you be forgetting that..." he continued on. At that point I started to laugh, realizing the pose that I had placed myself in unconsciously. I laughed at myself, at the look he had as he closed the distance between us, at the way that he was able to ease his way into a situation like it was all his for the taking. As he came up alongside me I hit him on the arm, telling him to shut it. Jeez...the nerve of such an assumption! Eventually I picked up my bag and we walked out of the station, hoping that we weren't too late to have missed another bus. Yeah, that's probably my moment. I don't think I'd change it, I'd just like to relive it again, for a moment or two. Not sure why...it just makes me smile. Your turn. |
