The Templar

If you'd ask my friends what the word "Templar" means, Then they would probably tell you that it's a pub that was previously known as Wyt.

The origin of the word goes back to the 12th century and it's a name given to the secret society that was responsible for the success of the First Crusade. People who like to read history might already know this.

I randomly went out yesterday to Church Street. I never told anyone I'd be there and that was intentional. I just wanted to go there alone and be by myself. So, Since I was there anyway, I thought I'd get a drink or two and headed to Templar (The pub previously known as Wyt). It was unusually empty on a Sunday but I couldn't care less because I wanted to be by myself anyway.

I got a drink and I was sitting out on the balcony where you can smoke. I had walked past the only other two people there at the pub and both of them were girls and appeared to be drinking. I lit up a cigarette and started to sip on the drink I got. It took me around 15 minutes to finish it all because I was drinking slower. I finished the drink and headed out to Airlines. I sat there for a while petting Cheeku and decided that I'd get another drink and so, I walked all the way back to the pub again. By the time I reached it, The desire to have another drink had faded so I went over to the balcony again and lit up a cigarette and that was when one of the girls whom I had walked past came out and told me she liked my hair and it's pretty normal for people to compliment my hair but to have sat down next to me and trying to find out more? That was a first.

Fast forward a 10-minute conversation, Her friend joins us and we start talking about random things and how we have a lot of mutual friends. We spoke for a while and then later we decided to go inside. It was time for me to leave so we exchanged our Instagram profiles and I headed back home. I went back to the parking lot before I got on the metro to have one last cigarette. It relieved me because there were certain moments when the girls and I were talking that became very awkward because one of the girls had dared the other one to kiss me and that would be very very weird but yeah, We didn't kiss and that was pretty much the biggest relief.

I came back home and tried to get some sleep but couldn't. I was aimlessly walking around the house because I had nothing else to do. Then I started rewatching Euphoria because it has great cinematography and the production of the entire series is just beautiful.
