Yes, dad, I won't be late, I am almost done at the office.

Okay, okay, bye. I ended the call with another ring from dad reminding me that we have dinner with the Argents. I mean left to me I would not go but since it was business, I was interested but that was not the only reason I wanted to go there. Actually, it was because I was going to see her again, the girl of my dreams, my three-second heartbeat, it's funny right, well that is what I call her because I fell for her in exactly three seconds. The first day I met her was like turning a new leaf in my life, we were very little; it was on my seventh birthday, I can never forget how beautiful she looked in her little ballerina dress as a six-year-old should dress and I was so happy to see her although I never liked her family, she made me want to go there every day. We even went to the same high school and my best friend knew I was totally whipped by her and boys in our school also liked her but I threatened them to never go near her. But we didn't attend the same college because her parent basically shipped her out of the country but during the holidays, I did get to see her but I never once had a conversation with her, we only greeted each other even in company parties or meetings we just get to greet each other but today I plan on making a good impression, at least to talk to her. I smiled at myself as I got lost in my thoughts of her until my phone began to ring and I picked it up angrily;

What? "I spoke angrily to whoever was on the other line".

"Wow bro, hello to you too, you sound so happy to hear my voice[sarcasm]" it was then I realized I didn't look at the caller ID before picking but there was no need for that because it was my best friend, Leo.

Hey bro, sorry didn't mean to sound like that, I said

No, it's cool, what's on your mind bro? I miss you and I will be back on Saturday. You want to catch up on some drinks.

Nothing man, but am going to see her tonight after so many years, I said smiling and am sure he can feel it too. But yeah, I would love to catch up on Saturday, it is my treat.

Really man, nice one, finally, now I know what got you on the edge, I look forward to seeing you, bro. He said we ended the call and I got ready to leave the office to prepare and meet my parents at their house because technically, I have my own place.

After I prepared myself, I left for my parents' place and we left for the argent. We got there on time, but it seems like Kayla was not ready because she was not there when we first got there. We heard footsteps coming from the stairs and Mr. Argent quickly rushed to the stairs, I couldn't tell whether he was trying to be a gentleman to his daughter or what he actually aimed to do. But when he got back to the dining table with Kayla I knew he was angry and he looked like he scolded her but they both covered it up pretty quick, I let it go but I was fuming still I had to relax in order not to cause a scene. Although something else put me at ease and it was Kayla, she looked so beautiful tonight and I couldn't stop staring until I was interrupted by my mum's voice. Dinner was okay, I say that because I notice the way Camille (Mrs. Argent ) was always looking at Kayla like she is not supposed to talk at all through the dinner, I had the feeling they scolded her a lot because sometimes I notice the way she drifts her eye towards Mr. and Mrs. Argent or zone out thinking. The night ended pretty quickly although I didn't get to talk to her, I got to see her again but I had a lot of things in mind for her. I smiled thinking of all my plans.

"Son, you did awesome tonight but I noticed you were numb when Kayla walked in, you should have seen your face" father said laughing.

"You shouldn't tease the boy John; he is still getting used to such beauty," mother said. I groaned knowing this would keep going on as my parents like to pester me about Kayla knowing that I liked her so much, it was then I remember I needed to still book a meeting with Cole (Mr. Argent) to discuss my proposal to him. I told my father I had to return to the argent and he was okay with it and told me to get home safe.
