Chapter Six

(Emma's POV)

i'm not sure how Lauryne and Jake are going but i'm sure with Jenna's advice they'll do just fine. I don't have time to worry about them, i can't even handle my own relationship problem. I can't get that 'guy' out of my mind. I know this happens all the time but he's different.

Keep flashing back to the day we met.

"i'm sorry, but i'm not interested." I declined to the annoying salesman. Gosh is he annoying! at that moment i realised i've made a horrible mistake for coming to the town centre alone. I thought, 'if Jenna were here, she would scold the shit out of this guy'

i kept moving left to right, hoping to escape his annoyance and harass. He's hopping around like a circus freak, smiling in brazen.

"Actually..... " he mumbled " i'm ..... i'm...... you..... i'm your secret admirer..... "

wow, he's so weird, not even my kind but i'm not Jenna nor Lauryne, i don't know how to reject people. So i stood there like a frozen ice sculpture and let him continue.

"i know how you come to Famous amos every wednesday for your favourite Choc-chip cookies, and what you always do with you hair. How you smile, the way you talk..."

i can't take it anymore, i raised my courage and spoken, softly "i'm sorry were you stalking me?"

oh my goodness this is so freaky, i've never been stalked before. He didn't answer me but the grin on his face already let the cat out the bag. He might even know where i live.

" i'm sorry, i'm not really interested in a relationship right now, if you just excuse me i'll be going..." before i could finish he grab me in the shoulder, his freezing hand gives me the heebie-jeebies. I tried struggling but it's no use, he's grab was so strong it's hurting me.

the fuss we made has send those busy-body to come and gossip. Soon we were in the middle of a huge crowd. Out of the crowd came a gentlemen, he pushed that guy away from me and stood right in front of me. He turned to me which i could only see half of his tanned face, and spoke with the sweetest voice, fill with protection. " Are you ok? " i nodded. " Let me handle this. "

i feel like i can rely on him and give him my whole life. Well, in the time of need like this, a hero is desperately needed.

He lied to that salesman and grabbed my hand. His warm palm filling my shivering cold hands with warmth care. How i wish he really is my boyfriend. With the look on the salesman face, it's obvious he doesn't buy that lie at all. After all he is a stalker. He should be damn clear i'm single. At that moment i thought :

" hmm..... I bet he will gentlemanly get me out of this mess by discussing gentlemanly like a gentlemen. at least is what he looks like..... Gentlemen. "

But he shocked me, by pointing behind the salesman and screamed "OH MY GOD"

If you're a perfectly normal person you would turn and looked, as everyone around did, including the salesman. But then, if you're a love idiot who falls in and out of love easily, you'll be looking at that guy, as i did, and notice how he could manage to look so good even tough he's showing a shocked expression.

Anyhow, he then turn around and still, grabbing my hand, and run. When everyone else is looking the other side , we run. It was thrilling! I never understand why Jenna likes doing stimulating stuff, now i know. It's beyond awesome !

He told me his name and we shook hands like mature adults , and off he goes. After that i couldn't shop anymore, i headed straight back home and told Lauryne everything since Jenna wasn't home.

Apparently it has already been 5 or 6 months and i thought i got over him. until today.

i looked at him, wondering if he remembers me. his eye caught mine. He points at me and smile, saying :

" Emma, right? "

with that i feel as light as a feather, so weightless i could just, fly.

HE REMEMBERS ME!
