Emily wasn't aware that she had that feeling with her. All she did was ignoring that tiny lil calling in her that she really needs to meet Bill all the time. Not that Bill can solve all the problems or at least solve some problems of her at that point of time; the point is Emily just donno what's got into her that she needs to get that calm feeling radiated naturally out from Bill.
So this is how it inflicted.... two days ago, Emily was quietly reading her novel after going thru the whole rough day of her personal issues, she uncomfortably lean against the wall with the pillow & just went through page by page. Until suddenly her phone rang...... that is where it all started without Emily knowing that this had changed her slowly & quietly.
Bill was asking if Emily can help her to get the information from Emily's friend, Lynne, who works in an airline company, that is there any good deal for flights. Emily, without second thought, just said yes & rang Lynne up. Lynne was actually in Italy backpacking, & so Emily couldn't get her on the phone, so she thought perhaps call another day. Emily called Bill that she will catch up with another friend to see if she can get the information. Bill said ok, he will wait.
5 days had past, Emily didn't call. Bill got worried, because he remembered that he will get a reply before that day. Bill walked over to her house & surprisingly there's nobody at home. He thought then fine, will catch up with her another day.
While Bill is wondering, on the other end, Emily is actually sitting in the park, then walking back & forth on the jogging track. She knew she is anxious & probably clueless what has got into her. She realized that she gets nervous when she sees him. Her heart pounded so hardly that she thought she couldn't even breath each time Emily sees him jogging early in the park. She wanted to tell Bill a couple of days ago on the flight info, that how much it really cost. But the unknown thought of what is causing her to hesitate to meet him is mind boggling. She felt she is in contradiction with herself. To meet or not to meet...
Emily thought to herself: cummon' am just supposed to pass him the information; & why am I canceling my phone call to him each time I wanted to call him up. & why am I so restless. I just couldn't stare into his eyes, didn't I. I tried to, but I didn't. So wassup with you, Emily? What's wrong with you actually? Her mind wandered in the beautiful park, & then the graceful swan....not until she actually bumped into somebody & the coffee spilt on the floor. It is his coffee.......
What happened next? To be honest, as a narrator, I donno yet. Will let u all know how this story ends, in due time I promise.
