Two Different Worlds { Kylian Mbappé }

5

I was around half an hour early to work so Jamil and I decided to buy a quick hot chocolate from a place that's around 5 minutes away from LV.
"I still can't believe you met Kylian Mbappé."
I rolled my eyes at his comment. Why can't he just let it go? To be honest it was pretty embarrassing how i handled the situation - in hindsight i realise i should've acted differently and i don't like to be reminded of it. Anytime he mentions it, the thought of me being angry because kylian was being nice replays in my head. I don't take back what i said completely - what he did annoyed me but i think i could've acted differently about it. After all he just wanted to make sure i got home safe - ugh why am i still thinking about this he probably doesn't even remember me !
"Erm, sorry what was the question?" I snapped out of my daze. Jamil raised his eyebrow;
"You got something you wanna share?" Slowly raising the cup to his mouth, his eyebrow still raised.
I hesitated, thinking about my next words carefully.
"Erm, i don't know. I guess I just don't wanna think about my encounter with him." Shrugging my shoulders, i could feel my cheeks becoming a little flushed.
"Did you know this guy before, until yesterday?" He asks.
"..Well yeah, because of you."
"Okay fair enough - but did he mean anything to you? Was he a friend? Are you ever going to see him again?"
Before i could respond, he quickly interrupted.
"Of course your smart ass has something to say. The answer is no. Look no offence but you're not that great Celine"
ouch ?
"What i mean is," almost like he read my mind- "Hes a superstar. He's a footballer who's known all around the world. You really think he's going to remember some random girl turning up at his house for 5 minutes?"
"Well if he's really that popular maybe he's not used to rejection. Perhaps i bruised his ego." I took a sip from my drink. I started to realise i how stupid i sound.
"As if you care about that" He rolled his eyes "You'd probably be proud if you managed to hurt his feelings." We both chuckled at this. He was right - this Mbappe kid isn't going to care about what i said at all - and even if he did, thank god i'd never have to see him again.
Finishing my drink, i looked down at my phone.
"I need to leave now if i want to be on time. I'll see you at 6." Smiling, i gave him a quick hug as he remained seated.
"Have fun at work."
I pouted at him; "You know i won't."
"What? You don't enjoy serving rich people with no manners?" He said sarcastically.
I chuckled, "Bye Jamil."

It didn't take me any less than 5 minutes to get to work. I arrived the same time as my favourite colleague, and one of my best friends, Jasmine. Me and her get along really well because we're pretty much the same. We had a really similar upbringing and have a lot of common interests. Any time i'm around her, i'll never get bored. Should be quite interesting when i tell her about the other day...

As we walk into work, our manager comes jogging towards us.
"Thank God you're here. Where have you been?" He huffs.
"Our shift hasn't started yet.. what's going on?" I ask.
"We've got a few VIP customers and didn't have any staff to help them. Don't just stand there! Get to the front!" We do as we're told and walk past the shelves full of bags and accessories, towards the front of the store. In front of us stood 3 young men, all perhaps in there twenties. One of them was facing us and the other 2 were looking around.
"Hello, can we help you with anything?" Jasmine puts on her customer service voice and a nice smile paints over her face. The tall boy facing us smiles, "were just looking for now, thanks." He looked quite familiar.
"Presnel, look at this!" One of the other guys call to him, and he walks over.
Just then the third boy turns around and i swear my heart nearly fell out of my chest.
No way. Please, don't let it be true. Not today.
Of course he looks straight at me. I recognised him in a matter of seconds. I was pretty much frozen and panicking slightly as i read his face - his puzzled expression turns into a smile. He's recognised me.
It's him.
