Waiting For Tomorrow

Which may never come

I waited for over an hour and you didn’t come.

Why not?

You said you’d be there at 4:30. I cancelled my previous appointment with the dentist. Remember I had told you about that tooth that was bothering me?

It kept me up all of last night and into this morning, but I was really looking forward to seeing you, so I took a couple of Advils and hoped for the best.

Starbucks was crazy at that time — who knew that the after-work crowd started so early? The 5pm rush has now moved to 4:30. Perhaps next time we should plan an earlier outing.

That is, if you show up.

If you decide to heed my request and honour your promise.

But maybe I’m a bit too optimistic, considering your history.

Should I just call it a day? Forget about the promises — broken, of course?

Maybe I’ll see you tomorrow. Does tomorrow work?

I’m free anytime after 3.

Text me back.
