On a warm Sunday afternoon in Prague as I was daygaming with my wing, I saw her passing by in a short dress with leopard print. She was born in a small Czech village but moved to Prague for adventure
At first I let her walk past but soon regretted it. “I think I just weaseled that girl” I told my wing. He knew who I meant. Well, why don’t you go open her then? He answered. I dashed off across the busy shopping street and caught up with her 500m later…
She wasn’t surprised at all. It was as if she was expecting me. I ran my usual opener and she said “what took you so long?”, indicating that she noticed me as we crossed. We chatted for several minutes before I bounced her to a bar for an afternoon tea. Coincidentally, my wing was sitting a few tables apart sipping a beer. I saw he ordered a second beer for me and felt a little bad. However, he is a proper wing and afterward assured me I made the right move.
As we sat drinking tea on a small table, I felt she was attracted to me. She smiled a happy smile and complimented me on my fashion. She found the Prague boys rather dull and was happy to spend her afternoon with a foreign boy. I felt she was up for more so I bounced her for a walk through Prague’s old center.
As we walked across the cobblestones we built deep rapport. She confessed that her right ear was a bit damaged on birth, as it was significantly smaller than a healthy ear. I felt that this was a very emotional subject to her so I decided to show vulnerability: I confessed that, as a kid, I was very afraid to read out loud in class because I had a slight stutter and was afraid of the other boys laughing at me. Sharing these unpleasant experiences brought us closer together and I felt she started to feel very comfortable with me.
As we crossed the street I grabbed her hand to guide her across. She never let my hand go after that. We talked a lot about her plans, her independence and desire to see the world. As we passed by the Svatého Martina ve zdi church. That’s where I stopped her, turned her around to face me, put the strand of hair that fell across her forehead back behind her ear and went for the kiss.
We kissed passionately as she grabbed my elbows. She pressed her hips into mine as I pulled her closer. After a few minutes we exchanged numbers and parted out separate ways. I would’ve pushed further, but I was meeting Natali in an hour.
