i was just behind you at Mc Donald's

don't get mad, i was really there
but you did not notice since you were surrounded with handsome men.
Medical reps i supposed so
With vested interests.
You had the pepperoni pizza and cocacola
And you added caesar's salad
There was laughter on that table
Obviously, you were enjoying it.

I was alone at Table 10.
Reading a newspaper.
I took time looking at the road
Over the glass window.

When you left with them
I counted, all five, I merely smiled.

There is such thing as
delicadeza, and I still have it with me.

When i texted you
You said you were waiting at Maria's Cafe.

It was enough. You lied
and what will you expect from me?

Tell me.
