" I,m so sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going." I apologize snapping out of my daze," that's going to leave a stain, " he said, looking at his stained suit." Sorry, I'll..." I stop talking, realizing that I am supposed to act like a very rich woman when it comes to him. I can not simply suggest to him that I'll take it to the dry cleaners , so rather I said.

" I'll pay you back," I'll look at it. It looks very expensive, i,m sure it's over 90,000. " Let me think about that." He replied, looking to his right to think about what I suggested, I took this time to admire his beauty. He is so good-looking . He looked like a Greek God with a sharp jawline, sparkling emerald eyes, but a rare type of shade and silky black hair pulled back neatly. He looked like someone anyone would love to be seen with.

" Instead of paying me back with money, why don't you go on five dates with me?" he suggested with a smirk on his face.

Wow, I wasn't expecting him to come to me. I thought I would have to be the one to go to him. KATELYN would be blown away. Fate has done her job for her. I stood silent for a while, pretending to be thinking about what he said. " Five dates to pay of a debt doesn't sound so bad, I'll do it," I replied with a smile on my face." Great, now miss...?" " melody...melody Hart," I finished. " Melody, your phone number." He said, handing me his phone to type in my numbers.

I gave him his phone back and was about to give him my phone when he stopped me. " I'll call you," he said and walked away to the other direction.I am left astounded by what just happened. What are the odds of him and I meeting here tonight. Maybe it's meant to be maybe destiny.I keep getting this feeling that I have seen him from somewhere, but where.

I called a taxi to pick me up and take me home.when I arrived home, mira wasn't there. I sat on the kitchen stool and took my phone from my handbag to call Katelyn. She answered on the second attempt, " Hello melody,.why are you calling at this time?" She asked, sounding tired. " Hey, sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you but I thought you would want to know,  I met your brother at a restaurant tonight, and he asked me out on five dates," I replied, getting straight to the point.

" What, really?" She asked, seemingly not tired anymore . "Yes, I thought about telling you tomorrow but decided against it. How about we continue talking tomorrow morning when we meet?" I asked . " Yes, let's do that. Good night,"

" Good night," i replied back, hanging up the phone. I went to the bathroom and looked myself in the mirror. I wanted to  know if I looked ready cause I felt ready. That's when I heard mira enter and went to the fridge. "Lody, are you here?" I stepped out the bathroom and went straight to her she asked with anticipation. " So, how was your date? " "

"I would say it went well, his the one who ended the date. And he made it clear we wouldn't meet again. " I said calmly.

"Let's  hope my father leaves me alone, at least until I'm ready to tell him about the relationship I'm already in. Thank you for doing that for me." She said with relief. "But something else happened today." I said," What happened? " she asked with a bit of worry in her tone. " i spilled some wine on trevor Knight, then he  said as payment. I have to go on five dates with him." I said,

" What did you say to that?" Mira asked

" I accepted, seeing as it will benefit us," I replied.

" it's fate.so when is your first date?"

"I don't know he hasn't called yet,"

" Guess you'll have to wait and see,"

I nodded in agreement."So how was your date? You looked happy."
"I am O.M.G. Is it that obvious?" Yes, it is, so how was it? Tell me all about it
  " it was great," she replied, closing the fridge and turning around to put the ice cream on the table.
