This should be worth my time. It's 2 hours before noon and alas, my friend gets to make it in time just to not leave her hanging. He took my advice of having to arrive at the same time as her as he waited in hiding inside a small café close by. Well, if your arrival coincides with each other, then goodluck will always ensure because it's like your fates are meant to be! I don't think they could ever recognize me under this new hoodie I bought and a safari hat that I had when I was still living rural side with my grandpa who loves hiking. They seem to get along happy! I just hope he doesn't, in any way, imply to her about having multiple exes. By the looks of it, she seems to be a relatively nice girl who looked like an old crush of mine during high school... unlike him. I still wondered how is such a guy like him able to get a pretty girl who dresses up unadulterated and flowery (it's what I view frilly clothes and long skirts anyways) but that also answers how he met his exes. Man, I kinda envy them. My co-workers are mostly old or fat women, with the exception of my seatmate and the front desk, but I never made a move on them purely because our interests seems completely opposite from what I "at least" observed.
I didn't think spying from a crowd would be this easy since I could just pretend I'm using my phone. Although, I still might have gazes on me since I looked like a suspicious person of sorts just sitting on a bench alone, but that's just what I assume. They go around shop-to-shop looking on some typical girl stuff that he probably can't catch a break. "A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do" so I told him awhile back. That look on his face absolutely looks like he's pent up but at least he's keeping his GF entertained. Eventually, they settled down on a boba shop where we can finally indulge ourselves. I still have to avoid suspicion so I sat further away from them, hoping I don't bother the 2 people who enjoys each other's company. I don't really need to listen, but I once again will have to say that I envy their relationship. I really don't know what to do in a sort of situation like he's in and yet he still approached me for a love advice, even though I don't have much experience with women. I started questioning if it's a good idea to spy on a happy relationship only to feel jealous of someone's success in the end... Eh, whatever! I'd prefer living a short life anyways. This world can just blow itself up including me, but not them. I make my own happiness, I make my own misery, in the end, it's all the same! I live right now because of the happy life I have in my apartment and no one can take that away from me. That is why I've been stuck in the same shitty company for years!
I don't want to contemplate on myself even longer. They are happy, that's for short. Suddenly, something felt strange as I continue looking at them. She started massaging her head and holding her mouth. I stood up from my chair to get a closer look on what is happening. As she also stood up from her seat, her chest started convulsing as if she's trying to puke. My friend showed less motion, but the look on his face seemed to express his concern for her. However, it didn't take long until her mouth bursted out a weird black liquid.
I wasn't supposed to, but I got to take a look at the disgusting waste she regurgitated. It was an eyeball, coated in mucus that is separating it from the black liquid. Her saliva is visibly floating around the eye. It's red veins also show to be expanding, but there was never a visible eye socket that it's connected on as if it was on its own.
His girlfriend started to look pale compared to before she was drinking that boba tea. My friend seems to be losing all his words to say and expressed a rather sincere disgust.
She ran at full speed, pushing aside the people in her way and often tripping. My friend, looking all distraught, didn't initially chase after her after he saw what happened. He looked at the boba tea she was drinking on and forcefully threw it on the ground, aggressively stomping out with a big expression of concern on his face. Nothing unusual came out from the drink. There were no eyeballs, no black goo, just tea and translucent edible pearls. After awhile, he started chasing after her out of grief.
That was quite a scene I saw. It was strange to think that an eyeball got straight into a drink, but how did it pass through her drinking straw. The thought only makes it worst, so I decided to head back home as fast as I can to recuperate. At the same time, strange things started happening not just in the shop, but along the way as well. No matter! This has to be a topic in the web and I wanted to know what the fuck is going on!
