Fated Destiny ✔️

The talk [2]

I sighed deeply after slumping down on the couch. A pleasurable moan left my mouth as I took off the uncomfortable stilettos I wore all day at work and laid myself down against the soft cushion.

If you're wondering whether I got fired today or not, I can announce relieved that I still got a job and only came off with a warning.

Well, it was technically my first time getting late, so I didn't really expect my boss to fire me. Though I did expect her give me more work. Fortunately, that didn't happen.

I stared aimlessly at the ceiling above me as thoughts from this morning came back to me. Now that my mind is calmer and not rushed, I can think more clearly of the scene that happened today.

And the delicious man.

I sat up, horrified with myself for thinking like this. I mean, it wouldn't really be me though because it was my mind, but my mind is me, so that means it is from me!

I think.

But I gotta admit, that man was really handsome. And had a good style as well. Well, expected from a business man. They don't wear anything else other than suits.

Gosh, but the way he looked though. Totally my type. He even has my favorite eye color. And either he works out a lot and conceals his muscles under his suit or he just has a good figure. But either way, he looked so drool worthy.

I giggled to myself the more I think about him. Too bad I didn't get his number, he looked fairly young as well. Couldn't be that much older than I am.

As I got distracted by my thoughts of the stranger this morning, I didn't hear the front door open as Thalia and Rosie stumbled inside with exhausted expressions themselves.

Though that quickly changed to a very confused one when they saw me giggling and chuckling to myself like a crazy person without a reason.

The both of them approached me slowly, cautiously as if afraid I got possessed by a ghost or something.

"Cami? Why are you giggling and smiling all by yourself?" Thalia questioned slowly as she took a seat beside me with Rosie tagging along.

Thalia and Rosie, short for Rosemary, have been my best friends since ninth grade. Ever since we started high school and sat near each other, we immediately clicked.

I don't know whether it's because we have the same interest or because of our weirdness, but either way, we grew extremely close over the years and now even live together.

"Camille?" I snapped out of my thoughts once again and I looked at both of them, "oh, you guys are home. How was work?" I asked them out of blue.

They looked at each other before looking back at me. I gave them a 'what' expression and the two of them nodded their heads to my question. Indicating that it was good.

"And now, please answer our question as to why you're giggling and smiling all by yourself alone?"

"What are you talking about? I wasn't giggling. Nor smiling!" I told them but their expression said it all. They didn't believe me, "we just saw you doing it. Don't even try to deny it, young lady," Thalia replied sternly.

I pouted and crossed my arms, feeling myself slip into little space slowly, "but I wasn't!" I whined and kicked my legs back and forth.

"Okay, okay. You weren't, you weren't," Rosie said and patted my head. I nodded my head with my eyes closed, "but you can share your thoughts with Lili and I, right, little one?"

Rosie said Thalia's nickname, making me feel more little. Whenever I slip into my headspace, I always shorten their name, otherwise it would be too long. In that case, Thalia becomes Lili while Rosie becomes Mari.

I reopened my eyes and nodded my head excitedly, "I met suuuuuuch a handsome guy today! He was really good-looking! And he was nice too! But I accidentally spilled coffee on him," I told them with a sad expression.

They looked concerned for a second before I smiled again and said, "he was extremely kind tho and told me that it's oki and that he was at fault too! Isn't he nice, Lili?!" I started to get excited again and swung my legs back and forth.

Lili and Mari both smiled and nodded their heads, "can you tell us more about him then?" I shook my head sadly, "I was in a hurry today and couldn't ask for his number."

"But I did give him my business card tho! That's good, right?" As they were both about to reply, Lili's phone started to ring and she picked up.

Meanwhile, Mari told me to get ready for the night and helped me take a bath while she got herself ready as well.

When we both finished, we walked down the corridor and sat down at the dining table. Lili was already preparing dinner when Mari took over.

Now it was Lili's turn to get ready. I just sat still and continued to color my Disney princesses while I wait for the food to be ready.

It didn't take long for it to be finished and soon we all sat down and ate while having a conversation.

At around nine pm, Mari and Lili were getting me ready to go to bed and read me my favorite story.

Beauty And The Beast.

As my eyes slowly closed, I couldn't help but wonder whether the stranger from today was a daddy or not. Or if he was a caregiver at all.
