Coffee Shop Love Story: SERENDIPITY

Chapter 1

Sara is waiting for her boyfriend. They are supposed to meet at 7 pm to have dinner, well... that was the plan but now it's already 8:20 in her watch and her boyfriend is not in sight. She tried to call him multiple times but she couldn't reach him. She ate alone and then decided to cool her head down in her favorite coffee shop. As she was sitting alone, she remembered what happened to her this morning. On her way to the hospital (for her duty, she's a nurse), she was welcomed by a heavy traffic caused by building a flyover in such a small road. The vehicles are not moving at all, the people started walking because they don't want to be late for work or class.

She's walking at the sidewalks with her earphones on when she noticed someone telling and signaling something to her, something she can't understand. She took off her earphones to hear what the person wants to say when she heard a loud motor sound fast approaching, because of shock she couldn't move, and then a hand grabbed her arm and held her close. Her heart beat profusely! She don't know if the cause is her near death experience or being held by a man so close and had no idea who he was. "Are you okay?" she heard the man asked.

A pair of hazel brown eyes with long lashes to protect it from dusts and everything else that may harm it. She forgot what she wants to say and just stared at him. She totally forgot who she was when the man smiled and revealed the whitest teeth she'd ever seen. If smile could kill, she'd be dead by now, that's what she thought. "Miss?" the guy asked again. She shook her head to go back to her senses. "I'm okay" she said "thank you so much for helping me." She added "You're welcome. Be careful next time." The guy said smiling and then walks away. She watched as the man walks further away from her. "You're gonna be late!" her mind told her and then she started walking...
