Maya
I sighed and opened the front door. I went out and closed the door behind me. I breathed in the fresh air and took my dad's car to drive to the river near the park.
Recently, I need more time for myself. The engagement, the new family, all the arrangements and the wedding. It all gets too much for me. I just need a moment to breathe again.
I sighed as I breathed in the smell of sunflowers. My favorite flowers.
The sun shone brightly on my face. I closed my eyes to fell the warmth on my face. The wind gently blew my hair over my face. I laid down and looked up at the sky. Enjoying the peaceful moment all by myself.
But this beautiful moment was interrupted by my phone ringing. I groaned and sat up.
"Hello," I said. "Maya, where are you?" I heard Char's loud voice. "I'm outside why?"
"Me and Bella have been texting you for two hours. We really need your help right now. Can you please come over?" I furrowed my brows. "Hey char, is everything alright?" I asked her.
"I'll tell you when you are here. Please hurry! I'm at Bella's," and with that she hung up.
I looked down at my phone, trying to realize what just happened. I sighed again. I was mad that my time was interrupted but if the girls need me, I won't hesitate to run to them. I grabbed my bag and headed to the car. I immediately made my way to Bella's apartment.
I was standing at a red light just a few blocks from Bella's when a violent blow pushed me from behind and forward, locking my seat belt and banging my head against the seat post.
"What the heck?!" I gasped. Disoriented, it took me a few seconds to grasp what happened.
Holy shit. I got hit by someone in the back.
Can this day get any worse?
A glance in the rearview mirror revealed a man sitting motionless in a black car. I put the automatic in park, opened the door, got out and walked around the back of my little car to see what damage that asshole has done. I looked over at him and saw that he was still sitting in his vehicle, looking down at something.
He's trying to pretend nothing happened, even though fragments of my blue plastic fender litter the ground.
My jaw dropped as my anger flared.
I marched to his tinted windows and pounded on them, hoping they break.
"Hey you asshole!" I yelled. I didn't have time for this. And no patience.
When the window finally began to slowly roll down, I was ready to let out a string of swear words that got stuck in my throat.
With sunglasses covering his eyes, staring out at me from the car sat the most gorgeous man. The man I have been thinking about for the past few weeks.
So beautiful, I could drop dead on the spot.
"You?" I asked absently. He just grinned at me and took off his sunglasses. "Well well well, who do we have here... little miss Maya", he continued to grin.
I could feel his eyes piercing through me as I took in his strong, facial features and his chin studded with what appears to be a stubble.
Now, that I'm close to him, I could see all his little details. His plump lips, the lower ones even a bit fuller. His black jacket with his perfectly broad, toned body.
Breathtaking.
I knew my mouth fell open when he said, "How can I help you beautiful?"
My bubble busted and I looked at him outraged.
