Chapter 7.

*chapter 7*

I barely slept last night I was to anxious for morning. All I could think about was Sean and what would happen at the café today, just the thought of him makes me feel good and excited.

I'm one person who is weak emotionally and I fall in love too fast and when I do I give it my all and thats the reason why most of the breakups affect me alot.

While I'm thinking and picturing Sean and I together, the alarm rang and it was 06 00Am. I got out of bed and with so much vigour because I knew I was going to see him again.

             AT THE CAFÉ

"good morning George" I said with a huge smile on my face

"good morning Sam, how are you doing? And what's with the happy face today? What happened?" George replied

"I'm good thanks. Nothing happened I'm just happy today, I really feel great that's all." I said as I fixed my uniform.

Even though I was in there my mind was not present. I kept on looking at the door to see who walked in and every time it was not him and it got me irritated.

" are you waiting for anyone? " George asked.

" no, not really. Why do you ask" I replied with my eyes fixed on the door.

"you have been staring at the door from the time you entered. It looks like you're waiting for someone and you're really running out of patience." George said

George knew me and I really was running out of patience. I didn't know why I felt like that but it was happening and I couldn't control how I felt.

" uh it's not like.... "before I could even finish saying my words and he walked right in the café. There I was standing like a statue and with my mouth was wide open my mind had gone blank and didn't know what to say. All I did was just stare at his gorgeous body and I imagined all the nastiest things in my head.... I couldn't help myself, I think I was in love for real and this was gonna hurt so bad but I was up for the ride.

"hey, why didn't you finish your words? What happened? Sam! Why can't you move or say anything" George said while shaking me so that I could come out of the illusion I was in.

"uh, let me attend to the customers I will be right back" I said to George while fixing my dress just to make sure that I look OK and I barely looked at George.

"hey, good morning. How are you doing? How did you sleep? "I asked( I look aside and whisper to myself, girl relax don't let him know that you missed him. Play cool girl).

" what did you say? " Sean asked

" no! Nothing really was just singing a song that's all" I said while bitting my lower lip.

"Alright if you say so and I'm good thanks. How are you?" he said with a smile and looking directly in my eyes

"I'm good as well thanks. So what should I get for you this morning?" I asked trying to avoid eye contact with him.

"I will have a cup of black coffee and with no sugar, thank you." he answered

"alright, give me a few minutes I will be right back with your coffee" I said as I turned.

I felt a hand touching my wrist and immediately I felt like thousands of electric shocks passed through my body. I develop goosebumps and I have never felt that way just by the touch of someone. My breathing rate changed and it became faster, didn't know what was happening but it was something I have never felt in my life.

I turned and looked down to him, I said nothing. I had nothing to say, I was lost in his touch and it felt good.

"are you okay?" he asked while he let go of my hand

"I'm okay, I'm fine" I replied though these words barely came out

"uh so I was thinking (looks at me then laughs). I was thinking about our first date and i have an idea of what we can do for our first date. So I figured we both like novels, quiet places, watching the stars and the moon. Yeah so what if we had a picnic at night by the river Bank where I found you last night and we can watch the stars and read a book, watch a movie or do anything you want. How does that sound? " he asked and his face was lit with joy and excitement.

" yeah sure I would love that and it sounds amazing. I actually don't like going on dates where there are alot of people so yeah definitely. "I said

And that was it, that was the perfect date. It felt like he knew me and this made me feel happy and I was looking forward to having a date with him.

THREE DAYS LATER :FRIDAY NIGHT.

Phone conversation.

Samantha.

Hey how are you doing?

Sean.

I'm good thanks and you?

Samantha

I'm good too. So I was wondering, do you need me to bring anything or you have everything figured out?

Sean

Yeah I think I have gotten everything I think. But you can bring whatever you think we might need for tonight.

Samantha

Alright I think I will just get a few things that we might need.

20 MINUTES AFTER

Samantha's phone rings......

Phone conversation

Samantha

Hello..

Sean

I'm outside your building by the stairs, I will be waiting for you.

Samantha

Alright I will be down there in 5 minutes.

I really don't know if he's going to like me or not, am I even looking pretty?

Is what I'm wearing making sense or not?

Do I smell nice or?

All these were the thoughts in my head and I didn't know what to think but I think I looked OK. This was me in my head trying to make myself feel better and all. And before I realised it I was down stairs and there he was standing.

And suddenly I was still in my room and everything was just in my head. I really don't know why I'm worried about everything (girl put on your big girl pants and enjoy the night) I said to myself.
