Hi. My name is Daniel James Howell. And my life is dreadful. All my friends have last words like 'I love you' (Pj) or 'You look amazing' (Louise) want to know mine? 'Goodbye' Bloody goodbye! Whenever anyone I first meet says it I make sure they say something afterwards. Like yesterday, I met Chris. He said goodbye to us all and I said "where you going mate?" Even though he already told us. He answered "the bathroom Dan I told you" and left. I might have came off rude but it saved my paranoid brain. Louise and Pj made fun of me a bit but its worth it. I need coffee. Don't worry I'm not addicted to coffee but it does help me. I order my drink and I realize it's the hot barista. He's cute personality wise and hot looking wise. His name is Phil it says so on his name tag. His words are 'Don't you dare, Phil' I'm curious. I'm scared he kills his soulmate or himself in the end. Or maybe he does something illegal and that's the last they see of eachother because he dies in prison. Alright Dan, that's enough thinking of scenarios today. "Sir, your coffee" an old lady says to me. I smile, "Thank you" I reply. I get my coffee and realize that it has a number on it. I look up at Phil and he winks. I blush. Then I leave the shop so no one can see. I put the number in my phone and text, 'Hi Phil' and I wait.
