An interesting turn of events
Was it Murphy's law? Something about it always happens when you least expect it or want it.
Yeah. Something like that. Well, Murphy came a-knocking on my door today. At a really unexpected time too. Like the time when you come out of the shower, wrapped up only in a towel & the pizza delivery-man is at your door... oh. Digressing here... that will be another story.
SO. Having lunch with M & BK today & all was fine & dandy... finished lunch & were sipping our cups of watermelon-apple drinks. And suddenly, i spotted the Phantom. Walking down the steps with Kitty. OMG. My heart started to pump harder & faster & suddenly my hands & fingers had a life of their own & started to tremble. What was i feeling? Excitement? Surprise? Uncertainty? Fear? I dunno man. It just felt like "OMG".
Well the Phantom must have seen me, as it decided to switch tables, perhaps after realising that the initial choice of location would result in a not-so-good visual arrangement. i.e. The Phantom probably wanted to distance itself from me. Or perhaps it was instigated by Kitty. Hmm... in any case, they moved 2 tables back away from us. So the voyeuring starts.
Nothing happened, except that the Phantom sat with its back facing us, while waiting for its gang to get their food. I continued talking to M & BK - the latter was so utterly confused but nonetheless in the confusion was making a big joke out of it all. Then the Phantom got up to get food. We waited. Waited. When the Phantom finally came back, it sat facing our direction & for that period of time, i was really conscious. Tried to hide my "OMG-ness" by babbling incessantly to M & BK, who by then were providing a live commentary on the Phantom's movements & being blur & nonsensical respectively. Speculated about what was happening & soon, i decided that there was really no point in hanging around too long. Needed to go back to study anyway.
We tore our butts of the yellow swivel seats & my hands still shivered like at a level of 3 Richter scale. Ok lah. Not so bad already. Managed to bring our trays to the tray counter & walked off, all the time composed & not giving any hint of my awareness of its presence. Funnily enough, i felt totally ok right after i stepped out of that area. No more shaking of hands, or heart beating fast, or "OMG-ness". Nothing. Just as if nothing had happened at all.
In a way, i felt great. I felt good. I feel happy and am contented with what & who i have.

well, for that you've gotta ask me in person.
Need to protect the identities of the people i write about... haha like crimewatch like that.

Since i dunno your frens, I assume "M & BK" in your 2nd paragraph is McDonald's and Burger King. (Yes, even though it does not make any sense.)
While I'm at it, I'm guessing Phantom is a movie and Kitty is a toy.
This should clear things up.
