BEGINNINGS : Journal Entry #4b - Love in an Elevator
Sent: 7/11/2001 3:05 PM
Funniest thing just happened. I got in the elevator to go down to the labs on the 1st floor, and on the 8th floor, the elevator stopped, the doors opened and this cute asian girl backed towards the door while talking to this guy in the hallway. While she was standing in the door, keeping the elevator stuck at the 8th floor, she continued her conversation, something heartfelt it seemed. Even though I couldn't understand what she was saying, I knew that this guy in the hallway must be her boyfriend or perhaps a lover.
The guy in the hallway saw that I was waiting and tried to urge her along with a few words, but she kept talking. FINALLY, she said goodbye. As the door closed, she puckered her lips and began kissing towards him. Loud, smooching kisses (like the kind when you pull in your cheeks and make sucking sounds) that she even continued after the door closed. Then she let out a long sigh and stepped further into the elevator and pushed her floor.
That's when she saw me. She screamed with embarassment. I tried to console her, saying, "I think that's great. It's so cute. You're lucky to have someone you feel that way about." Nevertheless, she jumped off the elevator at the next floor, her face a cotton candy pink. Funny.
