I have been having this jerk for this girl for quite a long time but the problem is that upon summoning the momentum to approach her and confess my love for her, I see myself being deluded😭 I live near her house and she always passes my house to hers almost every morning to go to work. Upon having no courage to approach her because I am betrayed by my tepid nature and sold in shyness, I recoursed to be a secret admirer of her.
What I found myself doing unknowingly is that I will always stand in front of my house every morning to behold such beauty. Guess what? What even discouraged me was that I was told by myself that a lady beautifully beautified by God like her, cannot be single; she must be dating a wealthy guy!
Just look at me, a poor boy who is even struggling to make a living, falling in love with such a girl: what a stupid illusion I am engaging myself. But the most stupidest part of it is that I never tried; I was wallowing in assumptions.
... and there came this day, I was touched by a hand I didn't know, I called her: Hello, hello hello. She turn round and stood still waiting for me to come closer. My heart was pumping thrice as it ought to, and may be it is my first time to woo a girl. What have I done? Approaching her, she smiled and quickly said to me, good morning. Come and see me stammering. I managed to make an introduction.
I hope I am not wasting your time for standing you here, I asked her! No, you are not, she replied. This calmed me down a little. I noticed that you live near my house and.... She took it from there: I also noticed you come out every morning to look at me and that is why I walk slowly on reaching here. I smiled, yes because I admire you and I found out that I have lost my heart for yours, please what is your name. Sandra, she replied.
But why do you walk slowly on reaching here? Sandra smiled....
It is because I like you and I have been waiting for you to call me but each time, you allow me to pass. At a point I though you are not coming for me but for other things. Why did you allowed me to be walking slowly all these times? You tortured me by not have called me for these days gone.
I quickly voice out like John's voice in the wilderness, "Please, can I have you contact number, are you free for dinner tonight?"...... 😁👍
Our First Date
I couldn't sleep, being busy checking my wardrobe to see which attire would match for tomorrow. Should I go traditional or western but, I remember the last suit I wore, was borrowed from a friend. It's not good to wear a borrowed clothes on such an important day. Traditional clothes wouldn't also be fine for such outing, therefore, I resolved going plain and simple; a black trousers, a black shoes, a wrist watch, a long sleeves and necklace would suffice.
Have you felt joy and happiness that you couldn't sleep, the only thing you did was to lay down on your bed, raise your legs to lean on the wall while your eyes were positioned to gaze at the ceiling as if to say your are watching Zee-world and you kept smiling constantly as if to say the movie displayed is comic? That is my sutuation! 😁 It's all about a date with Sandra💃
I didn't know when I dozed off, and got myself around 9:00 am. My heart leapt! I rushed immediately to take my shower in a bath, in order to meet up with her at First Star Hotel at 10:30 am, where I have arranged everything for this special moment with Sandra and I: I wanted it to be memorable event.
Guess what? I beat time and was there 5 minutes to the scheduled time. I sat down in confidence. Seeing me, will tell that something extraordinary is happening to me because of moderate excitement. Behold her in a perfectly made gown, wearing a high-hill cover shoes, a well painted makeup, a beautiful handbag, cat-working majestically, her smile is perfect, the height drives me crazy, the curve and shape of her body is something to be discussed next time. Sorry dear to keep you waiting, I was disturbed by traffic, Sandra said.
It's okay, I quickly replied. I stood up to dress back her sit for her to seat.
Beside Sandra, is a girl, beautifully dressed. I looked at her and was confused while she keeps following Sandra like a handbag. Oh dear sandra called me, meet my younger sister Joy, she came to be with me here. This is where my smiles started diminishing. I borrowed money to host a date of two and now we are three.?
