Tokyo wait under the tacks

A rather pensive wait, but one that quite possibly was almost over.

      Yeah, it’s an interesting little area. Hopefully it’ll stay that way and not get the gentrification treatment…

    Please tell me he was waiting for that girl. The syncronized millinery demands it 🙂
    Those big fans are a cool idea (pun intended).
    It looks shabby and somewhat neglected under there – a great place to begin a quiet little story from.

    The girl with the matching hat (scene one)
    Man in hat: She’ll be here soon. There’s no going back now.
    Girl: Lawks, I hope we’re not meeting in there.
    Passer by Male: I wish I was in there.
    Passer by Female: I should have married the bar owner when I had the chance.

    Damn, I really do have too much time on my hand 🙂

      Haha, too much time is always a plus!

      I purposely walked away the moment after pressing the shutter. Didn’t want to know, so it’d remain a mystery. Makes it more interesting that way. Plus even more than that I didn’t want to be terribly disappointed if it wasn’t a millinery match!

        Schrödinger’s couple. Because you did not linger, (and through your observation collapse their relationship waveform), they remain, for us at least, in a superposition of both having trysted and having not.

          Schrödinger’s couple. That’s a wonderful description. One that makes me even more convinced that walking away when I did was the right decision
