An Awesome Russian girl

Kids, do you remember 4th of July when I went to "Now you see me." movie with your uncle Henry? We went there with an Asian girl whom I added her to my Facebook account. Five months ago, Aug 22, she shared a photo of her with a very beautiful Russian girl (Luna) in a restaurant near Austin. I checked Luna's Facebook profile. She had some pictures in Vienna, and some other parts of the world that really attracted me. I was obsessed with her photos, and I truly wanted to know her. But her living place was in another city far from here. "I saw an awesome girl, but she is living far from us. What can I do? Why all awesome girls are living in other cities?" I told to Henry after that. I decided to add her as a Facebook friend to know her more.

Me: Hi. I saw that you shared some K...'s photos. You look amazing. Can I add you as a friend?
She: I don't know you.
Me: You are right  My apology :)

Since she was far from me, I had no reason to add her. Kids, I am not proud of writing this, but sometimes I used to check her profile to see if she uploaded a new photo or not. A few weeks ago, I saw that she uploaded some photos of her boyfriend. It didn't surprise me that she had a boyfriend, but I saw some other thing to be surprised. She was a friend of Henry. She also had joined Toastmasters group in our university. "Is she a student here? Did she come here recently? Was she here all the time? Will I meet her? Is she a transfer student or she started a Master's degree?" I had all these questions in my mind after that. In fact, this was the most important motivation to go to Toastmasters today.

By the way, I had forgotten everything about her because of her boyfriend until today. I was walking near our university cafe like always to see who is there. "Luna??? Is that she? Is she really here?" I thought to myself when I saw her. She was very smart-looking and fashionable. "Yes. She is really Luna. She is really here. She probably got here recently because it is the first time that I see her. She looks ten times better than her best photo. It is unbelievable. Is she still dating that boy? If yes, who is that man with him?" I thought to myself.

These days so many Greek organizations in our university come to the cafe for recruitment. Luna asked some questions from several girls who were standing there and advertising their fraternity. I saw that they wrote her name somewhere. Then she left with a guy who I didn't know him at all, but I know that he was not her boyfriend. 

I said my prayer and I came back to the cafe. At the beginning, I wanted to forget what's happened, but I started to think about it. "She was not with her boyfriend. Maybe they are not dating anymore. I like her. Why shouldn't I try to know her?" Therefore, I decided to go and talk to those girls. They gave me a flyer containing their fraternity's events. (let's call it Alpha Beta Gamma). Their information session was tonight. 

A voice: "Who was complaining about Ann? Now tell me, what if I allow you to be with Luna?"
Me: "I am sorry. You are right. I like her better. She is more mature and we have much more similarities."

I went to their information session. It was placed in a building that I have never been there. I saw Luna talking to her phone. She was nervous. "I am trying to find a classroom," she was talking to her friend. I got this feeling that she broke up with her boyfriend or her boyfriend left her and she was looking for another person. Maybe She came there to increase her social network and find more potential boyfriends. I can't trust my feeling now because of that long depression period. We got there together and we didn't know where the classroom is, but I tried to ignore her completely. I knew her, but she didn't know me. I didn't want to spoil everything. I didn't want to have a bad first impression on her. So, I decided to not to talk to her tonight. Even I asked someone else to show me the room.


The information session was very good. I made several friends there. I saw some familiar faces that I have never seen before! Luna sat before me and I sat in another row where she couldn't see me. After the presentation, I thought that she left there, but she stayed there. She started to make friends like me. I really really wanted to talk to her, but I didn't do that. Several times I wanted to give her a compliment or ask her where had she bought her coat, but I didn't do that. She noticed that I ignored her, but I don't know what was her feeling. Even though their club fee was steep (220$ for just one semester), I will join Alpha Beta Gamma if she joins it. Let's see what will happen in the future.
