Clara puts on her black heels and gets her purse and car keys. She goes directly to the garage and then drives her red Honda Jazz. She's driving but in deep thought and anxiety.
She stops by a shop to buy some water "what would you like to order? Please" the shopkeeper inquires as he looks at her.
"I would like a bottle of cold water." He opens the fridge and gets the bottle of water. "Thank you for choosing my shop," he says as he hands the water to her. "welcome!" she says as she goes out of the shop.
At the parking row, Clara gets into a minor accident but she doesn't notice it since she's in a hurry to the hospital. The accident leads her to an unpleasant encounter with a persistent man who starts chasing her car. "hey you, are you challenging me to drive?" Clara says staring out of the car window. Eric just stays silent and continues steering at a high speed
"ok, bring it on," Clara says as she increases the speed too.
This makes the man drive faster and he blocks her driveway. Angry Clara gets out of the car and starts scolding the man.
"What the heck do you want from me? Why are you following me? I thought you wished for a car race and I fulfilled your wish, are you a stalker? How much have you been paid I'm gonna double it." she asks repeated questions without taking a breath.
Eric stares at her in wonder, he's physically there but mentally not because he has never seen someone like that, no, maybe it's because no woman has ever talked to him like that. "she's damn cool" he says in his minds while rubbing his nose with a thumb finger. He comes back to his senses when Clara claps her hands and says "Are you dumb? Can't you say anything? Am I speaking to myself?........" Eric clears his throat and says "I'll say something if only you let me."
"When did I stop you from talking?" she asks rudely.
"if you speak and ask repeated questions, how will I say that something you want to hear," Eric says with a teasing smile
"Now tell me, why you've blocked my way," she says as she folds her arms. She lifts her head to look straight into his eyes since Eric is taller than her. This makes Eric more curious about the lady who dares to look into his eyes without any nervousness...
"Look, young lady, ain't at fault here but you're. Your car has collided with mine that's why I've blocked your way." he then looks aside and smiles." what's that smile for? " she asks" how do I believe that you're not telling an untruth? I'll have to first review it to know whether you aren't telling falsehoods. " she proceeds with the checkup and realises that she's the one in the wrong.
Clara feels apologetic and she lowers her gaze. ' I'm sorry, but don't take this further, please!" she says in a low tone
"unbelievable, to all the words you've said you still want me to play it cool! That won't work. "
"bring your phone," Clara says as she shows him the fingers.
"wh..... What? Do you want to kill me and leave no evidence? "he says
"just give it to me" Clara shakes her palm. Eric gives her the phone saying" whatever, after all, I'm a man"
After a few seconds, she gives the phone back and says "get it."Eric looks at the phone." that's my number save it if you want to"she says as she returns to her car. After opening the car door, she stands and says"make sure you take it for repair. "she sits and on closing, she says" the expenses are on me so better call" Eric looks at her as she waves her arm saying goodbye.
Eric remains standing on the road watching as she leaves." I'm sure I'll meet you again. " he speculates, then he looked at the phone number she has given to him and recalls her words before she left 'save it if you want'. He grinned," ugh, you Didn't Even tell me your names" he mutters. 'Mrs Collision' he types on the phone. Oh my goodness! it's the name he has saved on Clara's contact.
Eric sets off from there but can't forget about her. Is it what we call love at first sight?To be continued ⏩
