Chapter 3

Upon reaching the front porch to his apartment, Alfie realised that he didn't bring along his keys. Baffled at how ridiculously horrible his day could go, Alfie sat at the foot of the door, a crumpled figure of a defeated man.

'Had a lousy day? Guess the weather's not helping either huh? said a gentle voice. Alfie looked up to see the face of the landlady. She offered a towel to him which he gladly accepted.

'The word lousy seemed like an understatement though,' answered Alfie, while letting go a sigh. 'And I'm sorry to hassle you but I seem to have forgotten where I placed my keys,' said Alfie, faking a smile.

'I could get a spare for though, only if you tell me what happened to you,' offered the landlady, with a smile.

Did I just saw a gleam of curiosity in her eyes just now? mused Alfie. He hesitated at first but started to choose properly what's safe to tell her.

Alfie told her abt Rosette, Marie and Selene. Surprisingly, she didn't showed any sign of disgust, instead listening earnestly to his story. Alfie might have expected a much different reaction out of her htough. After concluding his story, they both heave out a huge sigh. Letting it all out did lightened up his mood abit. Had he kept it in him any longer, Alfie would have done something regrettable like kicking a trash bin or something.

'Tough being young huh? You have all these girls around you and they're all great but at the end, you have to choose only one,' said the landlady to herself, albeit abit too loudly.

Alfie gave her a rather lopsided smile, agreeing with her. He's kinda glad that she was of a great companion. By then, his hair's already dried, so he passed the towel back to the landlady. Checking his watch, he was surprised at how fast the time flew. 2 hours already passed since they started talking.

'Umm, by any chance, can I have my spare keys now?' requested Alfie, feeling the chill seeping into him. Maybe a change of clothings could shirk the coldness away.

'Oh! Yeah, I forgot about that. I'll get you your spare keys then,' answered the landlady, and started to stand up. Alfie gave her a helping hand. 'And, uh, it was nice talking to you. I'm Alice by the way, the landlady's younger sister,' said the supposedly landlady's younger sister.

Alfie was astonished at how uncanny her resemblance is to the landlady, except that she looked younger. No wonder he sensed something different with the landlady today. As he say there still amazed by the realisation, Alice made her way to the elevator to fetch his spare keys.

'Wait for me, alright?' shouted Alice.

After the news sunk in, she was already long gone. Alfie sat there patiently, waiting for her return.

'I guess it's quite a long way down to the counter huh?' mused Alfie. 15 minutes had already passed since. 'Maybe I should take off this wet shirt, it's definitely not helping me, what with the lousy weather tonight's been.' His eyes grew heavy as the time started to tick away. As he waited for her, his eyes closed shut.

30 minutes later.

'Wake up sleepyhead! Can't believe you ended up sleeping instead of waiting for me,' said Alice, disappointment in her tone. Cracking his eyelids open, Alfie was taken aback at how close she is to him. Redness started to fill his cheeks as he made a futile attempt at keeping calm.

'Here, the keys. I had to visit the locksmith to make a copy off the master key. Didn't know you're prone to losing your keys. That's why I took so long just to get back to you.Oh, and here, I made you coffee. Now you owe me two favours. I'll discount the towel for you,' joked Alice.

'Oh, thanks! And yeah, I am a notorious klutz though. Kept losing my keys all the time,' said Alfie. He took a sip at his coffee and was surprised that it's cappuccino. 'How'd you know I preferred cappuccino?' exclaimed Alfie. Alfie took another sip and smiled widely.

'Nah, just thought you're the kind to like those,' answered Alice nonchalantly.

Giving her a grin, he's surprised at how easily this girl knew about him. As the night grew late, they both kept talking, enjoying each other's company, Alfie's intention of getting a change long forgotten.

I used to write stories here, I used to post pictures and illustrations here. Well, maybe still am but not as frequent as before. This blog, has been with me ever since the dawn of the internet. And yet, I'm abandoning it in such a manner that it surely and definitely doesn't deserve.

So, I'm starting it back up. Though it's not going to be another chronicles of my everyday life. The fact that my life has come to an impasse, BUT getting there in breaking the gridlock. September will come by, and things will move. Or maybe not. Excuses, I could have made my world start it's revolution by now actually.

I have been reading alot of blogs and journals from various people and it certainly strikes a chord in me that, we tend to go into deep thinking at a certain point of our lives. And maybe, in all of us, we CAN learn to think for ourselves. The things that are needed to be done. To get what we want.

With that, I've taken charge of my life back. After almost 2 years of leaving it to fate, while serving the nation, the shock of letting 2 years pass by without actually achieving anything. Ok, fine that's actually an understatement. Eventhough I didn't made Officer, at least I made a Platoon Sergeant. Eventhough I didn't made OCS, I made a Silver Bayonet for myself. Eventhough I didn't 6SIR, I made 4SIR even with the whole painful experience there, and even blissful experience of fighting alongside them.

After writing that, I guess it wasn't so bad after all. Weird huh?

She wished to have sit with another.
in silence. A long silence under the dark sky and glistening stars.
and walked off with the thought of having the best conversations she could ever had.
Without a word more or a word less.
