Whirlwind Season

While some are either brewing thoughts about the apocalypse or busy collecting stickers, some are concocting word wars over coffee, health magazines, damp sneakers, and old planners.
 
Inside a coffee shop, Hunky Jerk approached Guy Writer who was very busy browsing the pages of a classic novel.

"Hey hot nerd! I am a lover of words too but if there's one word that I hate, it would probably be this word: waiting. Two syllables, three vowels, three consonants- the perfect ingredient to bring out the devil in me. I easily get what I want and because I want you, I know that I can easily get you. Let's get outta here and go somewhere. Can't wait to show you the poetry underneath my shirt."

Guy Writer paused before he drank his coffee. He looked at Hunky Jerk with wide eyes and knitted eyebrows then, he gradually smirked. 

"Is that so? That's funny. I am a lover of words too and I think..." Guy Writer paused for a very long time as if he just released a brain fart that could stink for an eternity.
 
"What?! You think what?"



Guy Writer  just stared blankly into space then looked at his laptop then to his cellphone then to Hunky Jerk. Hunky Jerk scratched the back of his head then eventually said:
 
"What? You know what, I am starting to think that you are trying to piss me off. Well, you've done it bro. I'm gonna bounce outta here."
 
"Wait...I've something to say..."
 
"For the effin' nth time, what is it?"
 
"I was about to say that I think I like you but then I changed my mind. You know, I just realized that I hate the word "impatience". Five vowels, five consonants, three syllables-the only recipe to remind me that sometimes, I can be a bitch. Bye. And oh, please learn to wait. "




Guy Writer scribbled something on his coffee tumbler, gathered his stuff,and left.
Hunky Jerk took Guy Writer's seat and comfortably leaned his back. He stayed for about an hour but before he left, he saw Guy Writer's empty tumbler on top of the table. Hunky Jerk picked it and took a closer look at it. He noticed Guy Writer's note and it said: 

I've been waiting for someone like you, jerk. Here's my no: 09*********. 

Whether it's a prank, an innocent offer of friendship or a late and unnoticed notice to hook up, it made Hunky Jerk smile.
