I, LLogical

It was a pleasant surprise to find out that T, from a previous post, also goes to the same crappy gym that I go to. We’ve been playing the “I look - you look” game in the gym in our very unglam states of sweat. He normally arrives before I do so he leaves well ahead even before I’m done.

But on this particular Monday, we arrived almost at the same time. So we ended up changing in the lockers when we finished our workouts. Well, I knew he was looking and I did not make it subtle anymore that I knew he was looking at me.

We had a very uncomfortable conversation in the lockers that went like this:

T: going off soon?

Me: Yeah.. you?

T: Yeah… you stay around here?

Me: Yup. You?

T: Yeah, around here too. Did you drive here?

Me: Nah, I just walked.

T: Come, I’ll drop you off.

Me: But I’m just across the road…

T: silence

Me: silence

T: silence

Me: Ok, I’ll make a move…

T: Ok, See you…

While crossing that road from the gym to my apartment, I was banging on my head and thinking… “He was picking you up, you idiot!!!”

Oh well. Logic sometimes suck. Another missed opportuni-T yet again….
