awaiting eyes

The waiter showed her the table. She sat down and ordered his favorite cup of tea and looked out of the big french windows, awaiting him. The shy and coy girl that she was, she surprised herself when she started thinking about him..so much. He wasn't exactly her knight in shining armor, her prince charming. But she was falling in love with him, she could feel herself blush whenever she remembered the way it all started..
Three months ago, when she joined this company, she felt like a little fish in a large pool of sharks. She was shy, but not dumb. She met him during the official lunch. He was heading the team in the other project, pretty big, pretty successful. His confidence instantly won her. She noticed how he looked at her and through time how he touched her in his own small gestures, sending her signs. The magical mixture of confidence and timidity in a man so powerful was irresistable. And finally, they spoke both through words and through silence. It was too good to be true, although he wasn't exactly like what she had wanted, it seemed almost like a fairy tale.
Like it was to happen, the dream came to an end, she was woken up, pretty roughly, a little rudely. He was there, with another girl, laughing, playing. As she walked up to him, he gave a wide grin. But the smile faded away from his copine's face. She gave a friendly smile and pretended to be just leaving.
She clung to her dream, she couldn't live in her reality. He had promised he would come, to see her at the coffee house where it had all started, at the seat where they had talked endlessly about everything from politics to philosophy. She just sat there, awaiting him..looking at every person passing through the door, searching every face on the streets. He would come, he would walk through the door and smile as he sat down. He would order his favorite cup of tea and get right ahead with a controversial discussion, tease her or just tell her his days events. She would wait, no matter how long it took her. Her eyes, they aren't tired of waiting..not yet..
