Beauty worth a Thousand words

I woke up and brushed my while thinking about international relations. As I wash my face I think about how I should've became a professional traveler, and that my plane may be the one to be abducted by aliens. So far its started off as a pretty good morning if I must so so myself. My shirts seem to be the only way I can express my style. Although; my friends say I've dressed comfortable my whole life, my 20 shirts and 20 pants have done me good throughout all of grade school. Dressed not impress I head out the door letting my music guide me through a world of its own. I see the 2 same people at my bus stop every morning. Martha is Kinda odd she wears a chef hat and often a matching dress. Steve is a tall dude that always has on khakis and tries to introduce himself to everyone, but he never gets much of a response. Probably because he carries that book around all the time.

"Hey man, cool headphones!!!" Steve yelled making sure I hear him.

"Hello Steve, If you don't mind I want to listen to my music."

"We go through this everyday." he says as he folds his arms

"Bro leave me alone." I exclaimed

We repeat the same process everyday, Just as I brush my teeth everyday, Steve continues to try and hold a conversation while I'm listening to good music.Their is a new girl named Asia, with beautiful chocolate skin and greets me with a smile worth dying for. No one seems to pay her the time of the day on the contrary she is all I can think about throughout my day, and I can only dream of talking to her. The bus arrives and like ducks we get on the bus and take our seats and enjoy the ride until we are forced to enjoy the labor. Wake, work, sleep and repeat right; What this very nation was built upon. As evening hits and the crew returns to the bus stop, without words we all go our separate ways. I enter my apartment "Tomorrow you gotta talk her!!" I said to myself. I ate a T V dinner and after took a shower pondering on if my neighbor is in the CIA. I say my nightly prayers and turn the lights out for the night. I don't have an alarm clock because the sun wakes me up. I woke up and brushed my while thinking about international relations. As I wash my face I think about how I should've became a professional traveler, and that my plane may be the one to be abducted by aliens. I put in one headphone prepared to talk to Asia. As I approach the bus I was shocked to see she was not their, but nevertheless Martha stood their with her stylish white chef hat and Steve with over annoying questions. Then I turn around at the tap on my shoulder. There she stood, her brown eyes melted into honey when it met the sun.

" Wake, work, and sleep right." She chuckled and said

" Yeah, I can totally agree on that on" I said lightly, but in my raspy morning voice.

She laughed and made jokes about my me and that is when I knew I was in love. Our encounters at the bus stop became my favorite part of the day. Our conversations would last longer and longer as each day passes. Our bus stop conversations turned into late night conversations on the phone. I would talk to her on the phone while hanging off the bed. When I talked to her I felt at peace, a warm soothing feeling that I thought only 90's throwback music could give me. Her voice became the best tune, soothing years of broken trust, and self doubt. Knowing I had to cease the moment, I woke up earlier to pick flowers in the field begin me. As I approached Asia, looking like "Krug" in human form. I felt warm, my palms are sweaty

"Asia Can I ask you a question?" as I hid the flowers behind my back.

" Noah you know nothing comes good after someones ask that question" she responds with a beautiful smirk.

I hand her the flowers and as time stopped I grab her hand getting engulfed into her eyes so saturated in the moment I nothing else seems to exists .

"Well, whats on your mind?" She says each word capturing me more.

My voice cracks and My heart beats out my chest and my voice raises.

" I've never felt this way about anyone before, The day you tapped on my shoulder was a day I'd never forge...." I was said before getting interrupted by Steve

"What are you doing?" He asks wearing a confused look.

"DUDE CAN'T YOU SEE I'M TALKING" I angrily respond.

"Noah their is no one there, Do you know where you are?" He asked as Martha stood staring.

"Are you dumb?" I asked, I didn't have time for his childish games.

As I went to ask Asia the question I've yearned for years. I was interrupted again by Steve.

" Noah, who are you talking to?" he asks

"I am obviously talking to Asia this beautiful women." I responded while looking back and winked as she returned a smile.

"Noah... are you okay have you been taking your medication?"

"Man, LEAVE ME ALONE!!!" I burst out frustrated ready to ask for Asia's hand.

I turned around and to my surprise there was no one there. My heart sank into my stomach at the realization that she was not around.

"where am I?" I asked softly, confused and frustrated.

"Noah you are at Sungly Psychiatric hospital. We've been working together for two years now."

I glanced up at a picture of a bus station on the wall, and a lady smiling. I guess a pictures is worth a thousand words.
