Orlando Bertino(22)
I finally settled in Viramontes. I really doubted that I would return here after college but here I am. My apartment is not completely furnished. I am saving money to be able to pay the rent. Starting out with my career leaves a lot to wish for.
I managed to get a date via the web with Alexa Thor. She too is a new transplant here in Viramontes. When I first saw her I thought she was sexy, confidante and just the girl I was looking for.
She and I did the ritual of getting to know each other. We asked the questions that all beginners ask. We decided to continue forward and have a quick lunch.
Silence is not always golden. This is the stage that I hate the most. I hate sitting here and hoping that the person next to me is not bored to death. I even fear that she will get a magical phone call that will excuse her from our date.
We saw each other a few more times. It was bound to happen that we would begin to get on each others nerves. It was just not working out between us. The newness of this thing had worn off and we both realized that it was over.
We said our goodbyes. There was nothing that could be salvaged and of course we did not want to become enemies.
And now I sit here in my living room looking out at this world that I dont know whats next. For now I guess it will be to get stable at my job and find my true happiness.
