I didn't turn around, but the closer I heard his footsteps, the more tense I sat, as he passed me, he touched my arm and a shiver ran through my whole body.

- Oh boy - I whispered

I didn't know which one had touched me, but I knew that if it was Tom it would be even more difficult than I thought.

Because despite the fact that I have been in more than one relationship in my life, and those in which the duration can be counted in years, I never felt a thrill at the mere touch of another person's skin.

Knowing my happiness, it will be him.

Impressed, I dropped the peanuts on the floor

- watch you walk Tom, are you ok? My name is Adam - And I already knew who is who- Emanuelle, nice to meet you - I smiled at him
- I'm sorry I didn't notice you - the object of my mission seemed unpleasant from the beginning

- Jesus Christ Tom - And I should thank him, he unknowingly did many things that made my task a little easier for me. - Sorry, my friend forgot how to talk to people

- I can talk to people, I work with people - Tom seemed colder and more bitter every moment

- Most of them are anesthetized when you meet them - I laughed out loud

- I'm glad I made you laugh - another snappy reply

- Yes that's right, thank you

- Oh, and he knows how to behave - Adam looked at Tom

- Unlike you my friend

There was an empty chair between us and the game started. After a while, Adam noticed that the seat between us was completely empty all the time.

- Are you alone here?

- Yes

- What such nice girl does alone at the game

- I am new to the city, I was supposed to meet my friend here, but something fell out and she couldn't come with me. - Hope my lie came out credible
- Tom, move one place, it can't be that she's all alone here - Tom sighed but sat down next to me, for a split-second his arm touched mine, similar sparks jumped between us.

And I knew I wasn't the only one who felt it because Tom quickly pulled away from me, breaking that nice feeling.

For a long time I fought with myself not to look for physical contact with him. His manners are terrible, he's married, it doesn't matter he's damn handsome and the touch of his skin makes my skin shiver.

- Gather within yourself, Emanuelle - I said very under my breath

- You mentioned that you are new to the city which brings you to our beautiful Atlanta - Adam was a gift from fate

- I needed to change something, I came home after graduating from university. I broke up with my boyfriend, I just needed a change.
- What you do on a daily basis - Adam continued the conversation every now and then trying to involve Tom in it

- I am a physiotherapist
