I didn't know what usually happened to me when I saw a snacc; every single bother in my mind evaporated from the hotness that radiates from him. My gosh, he was looking at me! I hoped I didn't look quirky; my smile seemed fake. What was happening to me? Just then, a lady walked in and wrapped her hand around his arm.

"Hey," Charlotte said, blasting them a beaming grin.

"Hi," the rest of the girls greeted.

"Good morning, I brought someone," he said, as the lady, who looked relatively younger than him, smiled. Ugh, jealousy struck my heart; I was sure she came for facials.

"Hi, I'm here for hydrotherapy,” she uttered.

"Over here, ma'am," Ava led her into the hydrotherapy crib. Harper then directed the stud to the lounge to wait.

Work was over, and I headed to the mall to get some lingerie I'd been longing for. As I stepped into the mall, the scent of fresh coffee and warm pastries greeted me, mingling the soft music playing in the background.

Then I bumped into a tall and handsome guy in the parking deck as I was about to leave, and it turned out to be ...

"Oh, so sorry," he said.

"No qualms," I replied and quickly turned to walk away. Then he held my hands, and I felt so cold with my heart having a resonating pump sound. His hands were as velvety. I didn't want to let go. My ego was fighting back, forcing me to lose the grip, but my soft, soft heart didn't want me to. I gathered myself and gave it a fight and re-withdrew my hand.

“What on earth, why did you touch me,” I gave him a skeptical look.

“Oh, I'm sorry,” he apologized.

I waited to see if he still had something to say, but still gave him a firm look to look tough.

“Erm, I came to your Spa today,” he continued.

I didn't reply. I was waiting to know what he was driving at.

“Okay, that was a weird way of starting a conversation, uhn, I just want to have your number, so we can talk better.”

I still didn't reply.

“I know I'm taking a lot of your time, but…”

“What's your problem?” I interrupted; he was shocked and felt remorseful. Immediately, I felt bad too. Why did I have to talk like that? His eyes became prettier and down.

“I mean, you brought your babe to my Spa this morning and now ask for my line?”

“Wha…” he tried to chip in.

“I'm- not- done,” I stated. He kept quiet, then I noticed I had nothing else to say, but I felt like my retort was necessary. After about two seconds of saying nothing.

“I brought my sister, not my babe,” he said in a gentleman's voice.

“Uh,” I said as my smile began to increase.

“Yeah, she is my younger sister, she told me she wanted hydrotherapy and I brought her to your mall,” he added.

“Uh, ohhh,” I didn't know what to say at this point. "I'm sorry for the misunderstanding”

“Oh, it's no problem,” he smiles, and now he looks prettier than ever. I don't know what to say but I want the conversation to wait much longer. “So….” He leaned his phone to me.

“Oh yeah,” I gave him my number and collected his, just in case he forgets to call, then when we depart.

At my place.

Lying on my plush mattress thinking of this one guy that made my day. Reminiscing all that happened. From my Spa to the mall, to the touch, everything brought gladness to my heart.

Then my doorbell rings. I stood up to get it. Open my door. Then it turned out to be….

“Drey?!”
