GREGORY'S POV

It's funny how things we are searching for always finds a way to locate us yet we don't even know that its there.

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

I went straight to the door bell and rang it

"Who is there?" Asked the female melodious voice

"Delivery guy"

"Few secs please" the melodious voice said cheerfully

"Ok"

I saw a glimpse of her from the window and I didn't need anyone to tell me she is beautiful, very beautiful. How come I've never seen her before? Because I know I've never. I can't forget seeing this beautiful face, it's a face you never forget. Seconds later I saw her walking towards the door and I swallowed hard, I have never seen someone so beautiful. I have never felt this way towards any woman before, I don't know what I'm feeling but it feels good.

"Hi"

"Hi" I said hiding my red tinted face

"My..."

"Oh I'm sorry, here it is" I gave the food to her

"Thank you" she said paying money for her delivery

"Thank you for patronizing us" I said still shy kind of

"What is your name?"

"Gregory"

"I'm Estella" she told me  and I just nodded. Her name is beautiful

"Gregory do you have a girlfriend?" I wonder why she's asking me personal question

"I don't think it's appropriate to ask these kinds of questions to a stranger you barely know" She looks into my eyes, people never look into my eyes except my mom

"I never said you are a stranger" she remarked

"What?"

"Do you have a girlfriend Gregory" she asked again

"No I don't" I finally answered her

"And why is that?" I didn't answer.

"I will take your leave now Miss" I said leaving but she stopped me in my tracks with her words, even when I know very well that I don't want to leave.

"Gregory you're too handsome to be single. And if you don't mind, I want to be your girlfriend"

"What do you mean?" I asked, as I  turned to face her

"I mean I want to be your girlfriend, your woman" she answered, smiling at me

"Are you asking me out?" I'm bewildered and I  chuckled at the fact that she wants me as her boyfriend. Does she know Gregory?

"Yes. If it makes you feel any better" she answered chuckling

I don't mind being her boyfriend, I mean who wouldn't? She is pretty, very beautiful and gorgeous. With the most beautiful orbs and curves, like she was sculptured by a Greek god or something. I don't know why but I want to get lost in her eyes forever. I want to be in her arms forever. I have never had luck with women especially the pretty ones maybe because I'm a delivery guy and who wants to date a delivery guy? Or because I'm just too aggressive for them. I get angry easily and I'm arrogant, intimidating and I'm not the kind of man any woman would want. My last girlfriend broke up with me because I deliver things to people and she sees it as being cheap and without respect, also because she thinks I'm too aggressive. She never looks into my eyes just like every other person doesn't. This work brings food to our table, my mom and I, so I don't feel cheap or ashamed. Like delivery work is not a bad work at all but I think she wants people that are rich and wealthy and famous too, ones that are not aggressive, arrogant and intimidating but filled with tenderness and whatever but I don't have that.
