First queer move was to meet up at a fast food chain. Second queer move was also to meet up at a fast food chain. It was 1am but the chain still maintained its business with walk ins. Young ones, old ones with wigs, husband, wife and four screaming children with one on the way,couples, good looking Eurasian chomping in a burger alone, a suprised birthday girl. All, at 1 am at a fast food chain.

Being engrossed in a conversation, i can't help but to observe a little of this place during that hour. The different people, the way they eat their chicken or burger, how they sit, how they dressed, not one is similar to the other. All unique in their own way.

In front of me was a unique creature himself. The way he sees life way surpasses his tender age. It left me with awe and admiration. Bold decision, risk taker, practical was all he is was that is not potrayed by a rough look. Its easy to label someone, but sometimes its not what we presumed. Sometimes our eyes and ears fail us, we have to dig in to know someone better.

Always give people the benefit of doubt. It may not be what it seems on the first look. What we perceived may not always turn out to be what it is. Its suprising sometimes.
