Online Dating

Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Feb 15, 2021

       The next day, Aliyah walked into the coffee shop. She was wrapped up in a coat, her eyes were puffy and her nose was red. Her hair was a mess and a frown was now where her smile use to sit. She sat down at the table across from Rosie and Faith, failing to meet their eyes. They'd called her early in the morning, pleading for her to join them. After a high number of attempts, they finally managed to convince her to come out and meet with them.

"..."

"How have you been?"

       Faith narrowed her eyes at her. That was the worst question to ask at the given moment. Rosie mouthed a 'sorry' to her and turned her attention back to Aliyah.

"..."

       They gazed at their friend who hadn't said a word. Faith couldn't stand seeing her like this. There was only one other time she'd seen her like this and that was when her very first boyfriend left her for someone else. This pain had to be equally as great. It killed her that she couldn't cheer her up. Aliyah had been her first friend when everyone else had called her annoying and made fun of her. She'd stuck by her when her ex had sent photoshopped nude photos of her to everyone at her job, causing everyone to avoid her and get her fired. She even supported her when she'd lost everything to debt.

       To see her like this pulled at the strings of her heart. Rosie cleared her throat and spoke up. "You know what you need?" Again, no reply. She continued. "You need to fall in love with someone else." Aliyah looked up. She would if it were possible, but it just wasn't. Adam was the only one for her. "You know Tim?", asked Rosie.

       Aliyah sat back in her seat with her arms folded and let out a sigh at the mention of Rosie's current boyfriend. "Yes." Rosie gently smiled. She knew Aliyah wasn't particularly fond of Tim, but she knew she appreciated the way he treated her. "Well, I met him on a dating site." Aliyah furrowed her brows. "..really?" Rosie nodded. "A site called Mid-Kiss."

"Yeah. I was going to refer it to you.", said Faith.

       She pulled the laptop out of it's carrier. "That's why I brought my laptop." A look of disgust made it's way onto Aliyah's face. "Well... I'm not really into guys like Tim." At this, Rosie and Faith let out a laugh. "It doesn't have to be anyone like him.", came Rosie's reply. Aliyah looked between both of them and then looked down. "..I don't know." She was unsure of trying something like this. She didn't know if she was ready. Not to mention, she'd heard how online dating could be a dangerous thing.

       Rosie and Faith got up to sit on either side of her, placing the laptop in front of her. "..Just give it a try.. you never know. You may come to like it.", said Faith. Aliyah thought it over for a little while before giving in. "..okay." The chances of her finding someone she really liked more than Adam were slim, but it was worth a shot.

       Rosie took the opportunity to type in the website and fill out her information for her. "Age? 25. Occupation? Commercial Artist. Height, Hobbies..." Rosie continued typing away. "What would you like your username to be?" Aliyah looked at Faith and then said the first thing that came to her mind. "Lonely Eyelid." They both looked at her with worry. Clearly, she wasn't taking this seriously. Seeing their dissatisfaction, she began to suggest more names, boredom in her voice. "Watch Potato, Insecure Football, Jumping Back."

       Rosie tilted her head at her. "Okay.. we'll just make up the name for you, okay?" Aliyah barely nodded. "What about Cutie Pie 23?" Faith shook her head. "No. It should be something that fits Aliyah. Something that she would actually choose." Rosie smiled. "Yeah. you're right." They both began thinking over the names and then Faith finally came up with a name she dubbed as decent and something Aliyah would like. "Simply Irresistible."

       They both looked at Aliyah for confirmation. She shrugged her shoulders and replied, "It's nice, I guess." They both smiled at her and continued filling out everything else for her. When they were done, the site referred them to other new members. They began browsing through the profiles in high hopes of finding someone who would interest their heartbroken friend. "Oh my goodness! He's really cute!", exclaimed Rosie. Faith had to agree with her. They went over his profile. Aliyah once again sighed. She didn't really care for the face, but the personality. That's what attracted her to Adam in the first place. What good was a nice face if everything else behind it was ugly?

Rosie began to read aloud.

       Aliyah furrowed her eyebrows at the information he'd provided. He was boring.. and he seemed rude. "Okay, so.. maybe not the best, but he's probably a really cool guy once you get to know him." Aliyah looked at Rosie in disbelief. "Are you serious? Why would I talk to someone like that?"

"Well, you're not picking any one else.", Rosie stated.

"Well, I'm definitely not picking him!", Aliyah replied.

       Faith grabbed hold of her laptop. "Here." She knew that if it wasn't Adam, Aliyah was not going to talk to anyone on the site. She honestly wanted her to move on and be happy. She quickly typed something in the chat box and sent it. "Faith!", came Aliyah's panicked voice. "Just see what happens, okay? It says he's not online, so give it time." Aliyah let out a sigh. She did not want to talk to this Sebastian guy, but she decided to listen to her best friend.

..she needed to get over Adam anyways.

Pestering seemed to be something everyone around Sebastian had a habit of. Pestering him to get out more, pestering him to smile and now pestering him to date? Online, no less? Who ever found stable relationships online?
