Rudy had worn casual clothes, but he got scolded by Rebecca, who forced him to wear suitable clothes for the date. He kept telling Rebecca that it wasn't a date, but she wasn't convinced at all.
SIGH!
"I am late, and now it totally looks like I was getting ready for the date. I can't even turn down the date like this."
Rudy hurried his way to the only cafe in the town where Elena was waiting for him. But when he reached there, Elena was nowhere to be seen.
"Uhh…" Rudy looked up at the sky and muttered, "I am like 15 minutes late. Could it be that she left?"
Rudy heard a knock at the glass from a distance and saw Elena waiting for him inside the safe.
"..."
Rudy walked in and greeted her from the doorway.
"Hey…" he said awkwardly.
"You are late."
"I know."
She pointed her gaze at the empty seat in front of her and said, "Come sit."
Rudy sat in front of her and smiled at her.
"Hmm? Are you going to stare at me again?" Elena asked with a grin.
"If you want me to," Rudy responded calmly.
"How do I look?"
Rudy shrugged his shoulders and said, "You always look great."
Elena squinted her eyes at Rudy and said, "Are you a playboy?"
"Why would you think that?"
"I don't know. You are like… so smooth? As if you are used to dealing with girls and know exactly what to say to please them."
"Well, I wouldn't say no to that." Rudy raised his hand and said, "Excuse me."
A waiter came to their table and asked, "Yes? Are you ready to order, sir?"
"Yes. Get this lady whatever she wants. I will pay at the counter soon."

"Let's not be formal. Order whatever you want."
"If I do that, you will also have to order something."
"I just ate breakfast with the girls, so I am full. But I will have a coffee, please."
The waiter then turned to Elena and waited for her order.
"Umm…" Elena looked through the menu with a troubled look on her face as though she didn't know what to order. She didn't want to order something expensive as she was being considerate of Rudy.
Rudy held Elena's hand and said, "Order anything you want."
"Yes…"
Rudy read Elena's mind and ordered for her.
"..." Elena raised her brows with a confused look on her face and asked, "How did you know what I wanted to eat?"
"I read your mind."
Elena couldn't help but burst out laughing after hearing that.
"You are so funny sometimes."
"Excuse me, I am always funny," he said with a smug face.
"How would I know? I am not always with you."
They both talked for a while until their orders got ready. After eating at the cafe, Elena wanted to go sightseeing in the town, so Rudy agreed, and they walked around the town.
When it was noon, they decided to eat lunch in the nearby restaurant and share their food with each other. Then, Elena wanted to take Rudy somewhere, so he followed her and went to the mountains.
"I wanted you to see the town's view from here. I hope you haven't been here before, or my hard work and plan would be ruined," she chuckled softly.
"No. It's my first time here, and thanks for bringing me here and showing me a view I had never seen before."
'Obviously, since this is the 1989 town, it's not as developed as it was in 2008. Even this mountain area had been demolished to make a way to go to the next city. In my past life, there was a flyover, but in this life, there was the abandoned tunnel— although now they are going to make a flyover after the tunnel was destroyed.'contemporary romance
Elena and Rudy spent a moment there, watching everything from atop and enjoying the cold breeze under the shadow of the trees.
"I wish we had bought some snacks. We would have made this a picnic spot," Elena smiled.
'This is… not bad. But it's not how I expected this date to go. Elena seems like a good girl, but I can't be in a relationship in this timeline. But why? I don't know when I will return. It has already been a month since I came into the 1989 timeline. What if I am stuck here? I cannot live my life like this.
I would need a partner to spend my life with. Not to mention, my super libido is killing me. I need to relieve myself every day, and it's a very shitty experience, to be honest. If I start dating Elena, then I won't have to worry about anything.
Surely, one day we will have sex and all, but I don't want 'that' to be a reason to date her. If I want to date her, then I will genuinely have to fall in love with her. However, I am afraid to hurt her.
What if, one day, I suddenly return to the 2008 timeline? What should Elena think? And… What if Elena is married to someone else in the 2008 timeline? If I date her and tell her that I would return for her one day, would that change anything?
Wait, how old is she currently? She is a grade school teacher, so she has to be in her early twenties. Even if she is 23 right now, she would be 42 years old in the 2008 timeline.
Would she even wait for me for 19 years if I disappeared? Only a second would have passed for me, but she has to wait for me for nineteen years."
Elena once again caught Rudy staring at her, although Rudy was lost in his deep thoughts, thinking about his future with Elena.
