Two Extremes

Date: 2/3/2022

I don't remember the details but I was talking to some people in a group call. It was very strange because even though no one was near me I could see them as if they were in the room with me. Whenever someone spoke, I would see just their faces. I didn't question it or find it weird. I had no idea who the people I was talking to were but we spoke like some good ol' friends. One of them in particular was almost too friendly. She was extremely forward and we had a ton of banter before she asked me out on a date. It was so sudden and daring since everyone was listening in on this. I don't even think I knew her name but I admired the balls on this girl. Regardless, I accepted and she immediately asks what I'm doing later today. It didn't feel like much time passed but later that night, I meet up with my date at BP of all places. She was absolutely beautiful. Slim, very well dress, with gorgeous dark and curly locks. I also noticed she brought a friend? It was just some guy but he also brought someone. His aunt! Bizarre as it already was, I had to go with the flow. We all sat down at our table and I couldn't tell if these were all the same people I was talking to before but the guy and his aunt were somewhat familiar. They were nice people and very entertaining. However, my date was a completely different to who I'd thought she'd be. The extremely forward and brutally honest gal was gone. Instead she was very shy and timid. She hardly spoke and would not make any eye contact. I mean I didn't mind at first but there was just no conversation on our side of the booth. Every question was met with a one word answer or ignored. Any advancement at all was not reciprocated. At some point she started shaking. It was subtle but I couldn't help but think maybe she was cold. The random guy and his aunt were distracted laughing about God knows what so I leaned over and asked ms. Shakey if she was cold. As I'm taking my coat off, she shakes her head no. Politely, I insist and even tried to cover her legs at least but she scoots away from me, uncomfortablely. Message received! At this point I'm tired and confused. I excused myself to use the restroom. I needed to recover. Somehow I ended up back home in a blink. Right away I noticed my clothes were scattered everywhere on the floor. I quickly forget about the restaurant, the date, all of that. It was only after I finished picking everything up that I realize oh shit my date's probably wondering where I am. I wanted to go back because I realized how rude it must've looked when I disappeared. But it was too late because woke up.
