“I think this would look really good on you,” I texted him. He responded almost immediately, as I continued to rifle through the sale vintage clothing racks outside the store in Osaka. It was a sunny but cool day, and the smell of street food wafted in the breeze.
“Yeah, I really like blue!”
Gee, I’m not getting much out of him right now, maybe he’s busy, I thought.My phone vibrated again, *oh, a double text.*
“So I’m looking forward to meeting you tonight :) You said you like whisky right?”
“Yeah, I’m really into Japanese whisky, isn’t that shocking?”
“Haha, well, I’ll meet you at the LiLo Coffee Roasters around 7, 7:30, okay? The train from Kyoto shouldn’t take too long, but I’ll keep you posted.”
“Sounds good, I’ll make sure to wear something cheeky underneath, but you probably won’t get to see it…unless…”
“I’m listening”
“I’ll see you at 7:30 :)”
“You’re the worst.”
I walked back to my hotel room, which was actually rather large for Japan, with two double beds pushed together and a watermelon mural painted on the wall.
