Sitting inside a restaurant table alone halfway finished with my food, when a mysterious, brown-haired, Asian man sat across from me at my table. He had the skin of a beauty guru with full face foundation on. His eyes were a browned green color with a hint of hazel, they were captivating. I could tell I was shorter than him by an inch or two just looking at him. He wore a white shirt with black stripes, ripped skinny jeans with all white timberlands.
I was confused about who he was, I just looked up and stared into his eyes and I could not look away. He spoke to me, "Sorry I'm late," he said his voice had an accent so I knew he was not raised in America.
"I'm sorry but who are you," I said still looking into his eyes."I wasn't expecting anyone to be dining with me today. Especially today of all days." holding my head down slightly whispering the last part. He just looked at me as I slowly lifted my head up to look back at him.
"Who-"
"Why would such a pretty lady be here all alone on valentines day?" he said with his head in the palm of his hand staring at me. I didn't know what to do or say. I know I didn't want to tell a stranger the real reason I was alone tonight. I was stood up on a date with my boyfriend, well now ex-boyfriend. He broke up with me over a text as I was on the way to the restaurant. I made the reservations under my name so I was not going to let them go to waste. I went on my own.
"Who are you and why have you sat with me." hissing at him with a sassy tone.
"I'm just a man who believes no one should be alone on valentines day." looking at me with a smile plastered on his face. His teeth were extremely white T.V commercial, white. when he smiled he had prominent smile lines, along with a cute ass dimple.
"Well since you are here and already ordered. What is your name?" I said playing my fork in my spaghetti."My name is Jaehyun."
"And what is your name pretty lady," he said I could see a slight smirk on his face. I was starting to get a little frightened. So I didn't trust to tell him my real name. I resorted to making up a name.
"My names Veronica. It is nice to meet you," I said with a smile trying not to show I was scared. We went through dinner talking and laughing together. He's not as bad as I thought he was. I still did not trust him to tell him my real name knowing I would probably never meet him again. Once we finished dinner he offered to pay for the bill even though he was the one who joined me out of nowhere. Once we got outside my ex-boyfriend showed up giving me a questioning look.
"Who is he." pointing at Jaehyun. I could see the jealousy in his eyes.
"I said who is he." I didn't answer him all I could do was look down at my feet scared. Tears started to roll down my face. Until I felt an arm wrap around my shoulder.
"Are you the one who left this pretty lady alone," Jaehyun said glaring at him.
"That's none of your business." "Let's go," he said taking my wrist and pulling me hard to get me out of Jaehyun's grip, but it didn't work. I was still in his arm, but the grip was stronger than before.
"I don't think so," Jaehyun said his tone changed. He was more aggressive. It scared me yet I also felt protected. Jaehyun took this chance to take my hand in his and run off while my ex stumbled back. We ran until we reached an alleyway. I turned and looked straight into his eyes.
"why did you help me?" I said not breaking eye contact.
"because I believe you are a special woman, who deserves a trustworthy man," he said looking me right back in the eyes like his eyes were trying to tell me something. I stood there speechless thinking what is next to come in all of this.
