She saw her eye candy in the line & came skipping to me as i joined the queue, telling me she'll talk to him on the bus. On board, i bid her goodbye as i headed to the upper deck. Leaving her to approach her eye candy at the rear of the bus. She whined & showed me a face expressing disappointment.

It was our shared luck that she had not made a request of her expectations of me. It would have been utmost vulgar. Seating by a "friend" of the opposite gender like an idiot, while she pays homage to her eye candy with heaps of attention.

It would seem insulting when she isn't even a close friend to me. Offensive to have that someone be an accessory while you check out the premium item.

Expectations was what she had.

Expectations is a bane to me. A form of hope born of the concept of having a future. Something not worth having especially when your concept of future is brighter than your actual state.

No, i'm not angry with her. She has yet spoken the offensive.

Old ties established.
