Summary: My God Is Wearing Sunglasses
Chapter 10a
It might have been guilt. Or confusion. But whatever it was, I didn’t spend the night with Ryan. I had already promised he could stay with me and I couldn’t find the heart to kick him out. It was embarrassing wheeling Ryan’s luggage past the master bedroom into the side guestroom, but neither of us commented on it. I am sure he felt the tension between us.
Dinner had been rather one-sided after I spotted Eric. Ryan couldn’t understand what had changed between us and was bewildered by my sudden change of mood but I didn’t know how to explain it to him – ‘Ryan, there’s this guy I don’t really know, but we sort of have a connection, and we’ve been on one half-date with his psycho boyfriend there as well and said psycho boyfriend saw you kissing me so now I am weird around you’? Is honesty the best policy?
Ryan knows me better than most people. From experience, he’s known that pressing me to ‘talk’ or ‘share’ wouldn’t get him far, and he left me to brood alone. I am currently out on the balcony listening to the pianist again. It’s almost a ritual I follow now, though his music has been rather disjointed of late – I am sure he knows my moods and adjusts the tempo and keys. Psychic pianist, therapy through music…I can see the advertisement already.

Ryan has been living with me for three days now, and though we usually spend the afternoons and evenings together, the mornings are mine alone. I’ve gone religiously to “Some Like It Hot” everyday but Orlando has never appeared again. Is he avoiding me? Over the Coffee Date Incident (yes, I’ve decided that it needs capitals, after all, it is an event), or the Ryan Kissing thing. Would Mr Leopard-devil tell him? I bet he would, if only to make sure his boyfriend never talks to me again. Not that the two of us would ever get together – I don’t deserve someone like him.
The coffee shop is surprisingly empty today, but that’s because I am here even earlier than usual. The pianist had not stopped playing until early in the morning and I had stayed up with him. Does he know he has an audience? Anyway, I couldn’t make it to the land of the unconscious and decided to grab an early cup of coffee when I saw him.
Orlando was wearing a purple bandanna on his head today with a red long-sleeved T-shirt. He was casual but stylish and I stopped just inside the threshold to stare at him. It was as if I were a man who had not had any water in years and was dehydrated, the way I was drinking in the sight of him. What was unusual today, was that he was standing at the counter and not at his table, the crutch propped under one arm. My god was also wearing sunglasses, something I had never seen him do before and it made me uncomfortable. The eyes are the windows to the soul – and the fact that I couldn’t see the dark chocolate pools gnawed at me somehow.
There was a moment’s silence as he accepted his coffee from Mandy and turned to leave when he caught sight of me still standing stoically by the door. Before I realised what had happened, the crutch-supplier/bodyguard that I had glimpsed last time moved in between us and blocked my view of Orland

What does he think he is doing?
My perfect god gives me a curt nod before he is deftly manoeuvred around me and out of the coffee shop before I can blink.
He is gone.
Has he been avoiding me all this time by coming here early and leaving before I arrive? Of his own free will? Or do I smell Leopard-man’s protectiveness of his mate?
I am running after him before I can question things any further.
