"riiiiiing.... riiiiiiiing" I tried calling several of my friends, but none of them were available. The time was 12:32, and if I didn't find a friend to come with me soon, all the good lunch places would be closed. Unfortunately, everyone either had already eaten, or couldn't come. So, I walked down to the restraunt by my house- a hobees.
I feel a bit funny walking into a restraunt alone, but I definantly wasn't going to eat something I cooked today. But I still don't understand why some people were staring at me while I walked in. It's not like I'm a six-year-old going out to lunch on her own. I try to shake it from my mind when I get inside, becoming more and more aware of myself, and almost wishing I had just stayed home and suffered through one of my meals.
The waiter sits me at a table, and it's really awkward. I can tell that he's probably wondering why I'm eating alone- or something like that. It was making me really self-concience, people looking at me. I already felt a bit like a loser with the waiter coming to check on me around 5 times instead of the normal 1 time, plus another visit at the end to give me the check. After about the 6th time I asked him for a box to take everything I hadn't eaten home, because it was just too awkward! I don't mind being alone, just so long as people ignore me.
So I came up with a few anime versions. I'll just list one.
I sit down at the table, alone. A wistfull, lonely look on my face. A young man around my age- longish hair, but not too long... actually really pretty (for a guy, you know?) walks in, also alone. When the waiter asks if he's the only one he says no and walks over to my table. We talk a lot, and then exchange phone numbers/email/etc. XD
that would be so corny. I can't believe I thought of it! Yeah, now go ahead and laugh at the corny-ness/at me for thinking of it in the first place (I don't really know what made me think of it, because I'd probably be really shy/confused and not say anything if someone sat at my table.
