The meeting
The breezy night had left her body with shivers, she began regretting everything about it. Time kept on whispering and staring waiting for the right time for it to make a call. She searched around and saw her comfy blanket well placed in an avoidable corner and reached out for it, as she covered herself the comfy feeling made her drowsy and before she new it she became "Alice in the wonderland".
She woke up with a frowning face for she was already late and her schedule could not be replaced. Gathering strength she rushed out of bed faced the clock and cursed then buried her face into her delicate hand. It took her thirty minutes to wash out and make herself lovable by every being then rushed out of the house without cleaning the place.
Her schedule was not that simple but she was quite capable for she made everything look easy and neat. As she sat on her wheel thoughts filled her mind and like villager's in a gathering she could not tell which was great. Parking her was effortless but rushing inside the office became her hell, the high heels made her muscles stretch and she was left in pain.
Her office was square shaped with a couch and an oversized working desk, her shelf was filled with paperwork and besides it an average table and chair were placed for breaks, everything to her mattered and like a maiden she kept the place in shape. As she was working her boss came in and had a little talk with her then went back into his office, she sighed in relief then went on with her daily routine.
Working hours were eight but since she was late she had to work less that day and head home straight for the unfinished business. It was a five minute walk to her car but as she came down the stairs she mate a stranger and like a vampire he had her compelled. He was a well built man with a smiley face and sparkling eyes that made his gaze completely colonise her pace, in a moment her world collapsed and a knew one began.
To cover up her affections she stayed calm and hurriedly moved towards her car, as she sat on the wheel she felt her heart and like the continuous nodding of a lizard it had a different rate. She drove back home thinking of the guy she mate and her journey wasn't easy that day, reaching home she became lazy to her tasks and went directly to bed filled with fantasies.
Delicacy
At around 8pm she woke up and finished her shores then cooked her food, ate and stayed up to watch her favourite shows and went to sleep. It wasn't easy at first but she later found inner peace and slept soundly. As morning nocked the sun rushed out to prove its glory and the clock cried out waking her up from sleep. The walls stared silently and the curtains looked puzzled as if in shock, she dashed out of bed ready for her normal routine.
Forty minutes later she had done everything and ready to head for work. She reached out for the door and went out closing it fast as she looked at her watch then rushed to her car and drove off. Her office was as usual very nice, neat and tidy but today something else was in her mind for what she saw yesterday couldn't escape from her heart. She leaned back for a moment and thought "how on earth am I going to meet him again?", a thought came to her and hurriedly ran towards the stairs hopping to meet him.
Luck was with her that day for as she reached the stairs the guy had reached the top, she made a quick turn on seeing him and tried to pretend she was heading the other way. He didn't wait for a chance and hurriedly ran towards her, holding her shoulder he asked "is something wrong with you?" then smiled at her. She could not avoid brushing and at that moment he realized what she had in mind, mesmerized by her looks he decided to give it a try and asked her out. She raised her head and looked at him in surprise then accepted and picked the venue herself.
The place was called Drama Hotel. It had both modern and traditional looking structures beautified by colourful lights it moved people's hearts. He picked her at her place then went together to the hotel, she wore a white dress with sneakers and a light pullover and everything about her was great. As the journey went on I held her arm while talking to her, on reaching I opened the door for her then held her hand and pulled her closer. We reached the table and she did all the handpicking, He kept looking at her wondering how she became his and as time went bye she noticed and shyly buried her face.
Everything seemed perfect at the moment until when they began talking about their occupations, she had a higher position than him, and she looked very concerned about it. He tried so hard to talk her out of it but it was not easy for she had her beliefs in mind, he became annoyed and paid for the bills then asked her to leave with him since he had picked her. After reaching he did all he had to do but could not get in then walked away in confusion. Reaching home she thought about everything and decided to give it a try when they meet again but "the guy was already in pain" she thought and cursed herself.
Uninvited
As her daily routine was she went to office determined to bring her setbacks into place and enjoy the love she deserved. It was almost home time when she mate him again, Paul was first puzzled as to how she reacted towards him then stayed cool to check what she had to say. She had moved side and looked down not knowing what to say then he became bored and claimed things had to end for he was hurt yesterday because of her.
She frowned and stared at his face not sure if what she heard was real or fake, she began speaking her mind and began to be regretful of what she did yesterday but it still did not help for he had made the decision already. He moved closer and kissed her forehead and gave her a farewell hug then went away still hurt about yesterday, she wept badly and for a long time and wondered what made her live like that for her pain was simple and humble to be considered.
"It was my own mistake" she kept saying it to herself as she wept.
