I pick a shopping cart, and push it around the supermarket throwing things in it. Tomatoes, Potatoes, Mushrooms, Bread, Flour, Cereal, Milk, and some more stuff.
Oh, I need some shampoo, and conditioner.
I walk to the Soap\ Shampoo aisle, and walk slowly near it, looking for my favorite shampoo and conditioner, Herbal Essences Drama Clean Shampoo and conditioner. I stop in front of a group of some Herbal Essences products looking for mine. Fiddling my fingers over the bottles, I catch someone staring at me from the corner of my eye. I don’t pay attention to him. Him. It was a boy, actually a man, a very handsome man. He looks like he’s in his early 20s, he have this soft, light brown locks. His eyes are also brown, golden brown. Ugh, they’re beautiful.
“Hi” A manly voice said
“Hi?” He repeated, but I’m not being attention that it is him. He looks like someone I know. Not personally, but I know him.
I snap out of my day dreaming when he waves him palms in front of my face. I shake my head, trying to pay attention.
He giggles. I die from embarrassment.
“Uh, I’m sorry. I- I- was- uh- lookin- um-“
I shutter, I honestly have NO idea what to tell him. I can’t just tell him that I was staring at him because he is so beautiful. Ughhhhh.
“I’m just looking for the AXE body wash,I can’t find it. Do you know where it is?” He asks, with his deep, warm voice.
He sounds so beautiful. I forget to answer him because, again, I was staring.
“Do you? It’s a really good body wash” he tries to explain.
But I don’t answer.
“I’d like to body wash your body real good” I say not really paying attention to what the hell I just said.
“Excuse me?” he says looking awkwardly at me.
“I mean, your body is good with the wash….uhh… The wash is good on your body” I try to keep myself together, I’m so distracted.
“THE BODY WASH IS ON THAT SIDE” I finally manage to say, pointing to the aisle next to me.
My face is now as red as a tomato. Oh God, Why?
He giggles, as I hide my face between my hands. He slaps his knees laughing really hard. I try to look around avoiding the embarrassing situation.
“You’re really adorable” He says between giggles.
“Haha thanks” I say awkwardly. “And I’m really sorry”.
“Nah, it’s OK. I’m Justin by the way” He introduces himself.
Justin? Justin. Justin!! Um? I really felt like I knew him, he’s tha- Ohhhhhhh. He’s Justin. Like “The Justin”. Justin, as in “Justin Bieber”. I feel stupid. Of course it’s Justin Bieber.
“Oh my God, Hi! I’m Diana” I greet him very warmly.
I stretch my arm for a handshake. He accepts it nicely.
We shake hands for a whole minute. Sharing “Giggles of awkwardness”.
“Well, I gotta get going. Nice meeting you Diana” He says pulling his hand away.
“OK. That’s fine. Nice meeting YOU” I say smiling.
We giggle for the last time.
“See you around” He says walking away.
I just wave to him walking in the opposite direction.
I just made a total fool out of myself in front of a celebrity. Great.
I look around and see the shampoo that I was looking for.
“Here you are” I whisper loud enough for only me to hear. I grab the bottles and throw them in the cart, then push it forwards.
