It all started with the brand known for selling luxury, modern apparel for men and women alike, Gucci.
Not just Gucci, but the Gucci shop I just so happened to work at.
Exhausted after working a full 7 hours, I let out a sigh as it was almost time for me to leave.
It was while I was folding clothes that I saw him. Instantly our eyes locked onto each other.
As if my feet were glued to the ground; I couldn't move.
As though the air was knocked out of my lungs; I couldn't breathe.
Staring into his eyes was awkward but in doing so a wave of familiarity overcame me.
Ruining the moment, my coworker Bella approached him with a smile and asked if he needed any help. Politely he declined, and his attention was brought back to me.
As he slowly approached me, I decided to break the eye contact again and quickly shifted my attention to the clothes in front of me.
Frantically folding them as if my life depended on it.
I glanced up and saw just how close he was. It was almost as though he was breathing in my features. "Hi, is there anything I could help you with?" I asked to break the silence."I-uh, I need to be fitted for a suit," he replies while rubbing the back of his neck.
"I'd be more than happy to show you our vast selection of suits, we offer a variety of luxurious options that I hope will be of your liking. Don't hesitate to ask me any questions." I said while leading him to the suits.
Neglecting the expensive suits in front of him, he gently took my hand and placed a kiss on it.
My eyes widened, and I gasped in shock at how surreal the whole moment was on its own.
With this job I've become accustomed to dealing with snobs, but he was different.
