That voice, I thought, I heard that voice before. Where have I heard it?
Putting on my necklace was the last thing I needed to do. My head was down while I tried to feel the clasp grip the chain. It was a golden necklace with a heart as the piece being carried. It had my name on it, and I didn't know why. My parents were dead for seven years and this is the first date I had since then.
"Need help?" a masculine voice rumbled.
It sounded right outside my door and there was a hint of familiar accent to the pitch. I could feel the gentleness of his hands taking the necklace from mine as I felt him put it on. His hands felt familiar too. What is it with this guy?
"There," he exclaimed as he finished the necklace.
"Thank you."
Now that I had a red, form fitting dress, hair pinned up in a silver bow, and my open toed, criss-cross heals to match my bow, I was ready. As I got up and turn around, I made sure to flatten my dress and then look up.
"I-I-I- Synthia!!!!!!!" I called to her.
"What is it, darling?"
"Just give us a sec, kay?" and I grabbed her arm as soon as she entered the door and went into a closet. "Why him?"
"What about him?" Synthia questioned.
"Remember how I told you about the guy that I bumped into yesterday?"
"Yeah... I don't see your point here, sweetheart."
I did a face palm and sent her into a fit about my makeup. Then I had to reexplain to her how rude and conceited he was. When I went to the store yesterday, I bumped into this man. Turned out to be my crush from high school. He wasn't popular or anything, it just dealt with the fascination he had for art.
Well, we got into a heated debate when he came back into town and it was not pretty. I wish I died yesterday before I ever did that again. When I was finished, I could hear him breathing on the other side of the door.
"Do you mind------"
