Day 2 and 3
I have decided to take the day off so i decided to hit the New York Market. The Market is packed with
stalls with toys, clothing, vintage items. I spot a beautiful scarf and walk over to admire it.
'This is beautiful' I say. She nods and smiles up at me as i run my hands over the silk scarf softly.
'It is very beautiful. Its a vintage french item' the lady tells me and i pick up the scarf to admire
closer.
'How much?' I ask.
'Its 300 Dollars' She says and i nearly choke on my saliva
'Is it really that much?' I asked and she shrugged.
'Thats rock bottom price. 300 isn't expensive' she say and i put the scarf down
'Thank you' I walked away, regretfully but i cannot afford a 300 dollar item around this time of year.
I notice something that my 3 year old cousin may like.
'Whats that' I asked the stall holder.
'Its a chicken which has babies' He says and i smile at it when little eggs come out.
'How much'
'For you sweetheart. Lets say 35! How about it'
'Sure, ill take one thank you!' I tell him and he puts it in a box and bags it for me. I notice a young man
in a blue shirt. The same one i noticed staring at me in Chongs last night.
'Everytime i see you, your buying chickens' He says and in that moment i choose to hide under my hair.
'Everytime i see you, your.....' I tell him
'What?' he says smiling.
'Your smiling at me' I say, looking up at him. Hes a good looking man. Hazel eyes. Muscles. Beautiful
smile.
'Smiling at you?' He says laughing a little.
'So do you want to go for a coffee with me. Vinnys Cafe is around the corner from here' He asks and
i look towards the way he is pointing.
'Sure, why not. I could do with a drink' I say. We walked in silence over to the place he had mentioned
and we ordered 2 coffees. We sat down at a quiet table.
'This place has alot of history for gangsters. A guy blew his brains out in the chair your sitting in to be
exact' He says and i start to feel slightly uncomfortable. He notices and smirks a little.
He reaches into his inside pocket of his leather jacket and pulls out the silk scarf from earlier.
'Do you recognise this?' He says and i gasped. 'Its for you'
'But sir, i dont even know your name. I cant accept this' I tell him and play with my fingernails.
'My name's Matt. I dont think i caught your name? Sure you can, wrap it around your neck and forget i
ever bought it' He winks and i blushed a little.
'Matt? Hi Matt. I'm Amy. Okay then. Thank you' I say.
'Beautiful Name for a beautiful woman' He smiles and i blushed again.
'Do you want to come to my place for a bit. I won't try anything. I promise' He says and i agree. I don't
usually do the sort of thing to go to a strangers house but i felt like i could trust him.
When we arrive at his place, its a large house directly by the lake. When we enter i sit down on the
edge of the bed.
'What do you do for a living?' I ask him. He shrugs his jacket off and sits down at a dining chair.
'Im a retired rock star. Currently a stock market invester. I hate it' he says and i looked at him.
'Thats a risky career i'd say' I say
'No riskier than you coming here with me today. We don't even know each other' He says, standing up
and walking ever so slowly towards me.
'There's no taxicab waiting outside, There's no phone booth. Just....me....and you. Alone!' He says in a
weird tone and i start to have a mini panic attack.
'I don't like this at all, i wanna go home!' I shout scared.
'I was kidding' He says, looking calm. Almost too calm. It was kind of scary.
'Now. Please. I wanna go home now' I shout and he places his coat back on himself then opens the door.
We drove back in silence. I didn't speak to him, i just ran up virtually to my apartment and slumped onto
my bed.
DAY 3
'Right i think the art should be put up in red, blue, red, blue, red order. Okay? Thanks' I say and take a
step back.
'I think the dog collar should be in the middle of all the other pieces don't you' Andy asks me and i shake
my head.
'Its a chasity belt, not a dog collar'
'It is?'
'Amy, someone sent you flowers. They're really pretty' My assistant shouts from head reception.
'Alright, don't move anything. I'll be right back' I tell Andy and my other co-workers.
As i approach the desk, I notice a large bunch of roses with a note attached. I had paint covered gloves
on so i asked my assistant to hand me the note.
SORRY FOR SCARING YOU LAST NIGHT. I WOULDNT HURT YOU. TRUST ME! I HOPE YOU LIKE
THE ROSES. PICKED THEM JUST FOR YOU. MEET ME OUTSIDE AS SOON AS YOU RECIEVE
THESE. I WANNA TAKE YOU SOMEWHERE! MATT X
I met Matt outside and he took me to the Local Christmas Fair. We played Arcade Games for a while
until he spots the Giant Ferris Wheel. He motions for me to take a seat and the Wheel Operator closes
the lock to make sure i don't fall out. I expected Matt to join me but he just grins from the corner standing
next to the Operator.
'Send her up?' The operator says.
'Take her up!' He says and waves up at me as i get pulled up in the wheel. He smirks up at me.
I hear him say something along the lines of 'Can you stop it there' when i reached the top. All of a sudden
the ferris wheel stops and i'm stuck at the top in mid air.
'Matt!'
He laughs as i look down at him 'Byeeee' he shouts and waves.
'Matt, i hate you!' I shouted and start to feel annoyed.
'Shall we get a cup of coffee' Matt asks the Operator and they walked off.
'Matt, you pig!' I shouted
'See ya later Amy' He waves back.
'GET ME DOWN!' i shouted to people to help me down but nobody helped. Just laughed at me. I
felt embarassed. He's gonna pay for this.
After i get let down from the ride. I chase after Matt and hit him with the roses he had bought for
me. I quickly felt my frustration fade away and we walked along the pier in silence until 3 kids stop
us.
'Hi. Do you guys like Music?' A little boy says. We both looked at each other
'Yeah, we like music' Matt says and smirks down at the kid.
'Well thats good. My brother here can fart the theme from Jaws. He's really good. You can hear it
for 5 dollars' We both smile at the kid.
'I can buy the record for 5 Dollars' Matt says.
'Ok then, 1 dollar to hear it' The kid says
'Just give him the one dollar Matt. I wanna see this for myself' I tell Matt and he hands over a dollar.
The plump kid steps foward and does a crouching motion
'Look at this guy, he looks like he's about to take off!' Matt says and i laughed.
He lets out a little fart and Matt sighs
'Is that it?' Matt says.
'He can only do a few bars'. The kid with the money says.
'Come on, Gimme my money back' Matt says and the kids all decide to run away. Matt jokingly runs
after them.
We finished up at the fair and he drove me home. That was a pretty good day. I hope to see him
again soon. Hopefully!
