Was it even real?
By : Alexendria Mccullough
Ring ring ring hello? You sleep? If I was sleep would I have answered?
Now before you jump to conclusions Jarrell had been calling for a second date for over three weeks now , however I just couldn’t do it . See lets rewind to our first date .
When I met Jarrell he was at La Fitness hitting the treadmill hard, Me? Let’s just say I go the gym for the cute workout clothes . Hey you! Hey ! Pretty lady ?! At this point I figured he was talking to me . Yes ! Can I help you? Your vibe is bitter with a hint of sweet can I take you out? Now normally I would have said no but it was something about him cool , smooth and sexy . So I obligided OK! When!
Now! I’m not even dressed ! You didn’t even break a sweat ! Well your not dressed! Anything to get out of it!
I’m going to hit the showers now be ready in twenty. My car or yours was his statement when we met back up in the lobby . You drive yours and I drive mine ! Ok ! Ok! Don’t be to Sassy !
Who does this guy think he’s talking to? Where are we going asking a question to dodge his statement . It’s a local bar right outside of town twenty eight minutes away follow me !
We exited hwy 1000 I chuckled to myself like who comes up with these names ? We made a right and we drove for what felt like hours that turned into days . We finally made a left drove up the hill and made a sharp right . We were here and here it was standing right there big as ever , right in your face like boom!
You like? Ummm ! Oooo ! Hmmmm! I’m not sure !
What do you mean your not sure? You either like it or you don’t . Imagine yourself walking through can you see it? Me looking confused? Um should I believe this ? I mean is this really here? Right here? Right now? Chuckles !!! Of course it’s right here you ready? At this point I was so stunned that I didn’t know what to say ! Hey miss Can I give you a glass of Merlot it will make it easier to understand ! The gate keeper or whoever you call the person guarding and catering to the guest only at the gate. Now I know right now you wondering where I am but that’s the thing I didn’t know. I knew that it wasn’t normal but for some reason this whole first date wasn’t normal I looked down and there was my glass of Merlot looking back at me ! I thought to myself what am I getting myself into? Is this weird to me? Would this be weird to others? They say aliens are real maybe this place is too why is everything so confusing ? I had only had water to drink before I went to the gym wait! So if I was at the gym why do I have on jeans and a T-shirt now? Somethings not right! I feel like I’m in another dimension . But how could I be?
I snapped out of my trance Jarrell I can’t do a round two of that . All of those unusual things the gate keeper the glass looking back at me! What was that? His answer? It was your mind relaxing and escaping all on its own . Me ? What? huh? I don’t get it?
.................. Silence then dial tone!
Hello ?! Hello?! Are you there?! Omggggg Jarrell ! No one was there. Was he ever there ? Then I realized It all started with a glass of Merlot .
