2024-10-29 19:42:56He was still as handsome and breathtaking she remembered, looking so hot in his worn out Jean trousers and a blue T-shirt with the store's logo printed atop, Sara couldn't take her blinking eyes off him.
"Hey love!" he said again and Sara whose mind was far off, shaked her head wearily and cleared her voice.
"Wait you guys know each other from somewhere or something, ermmmm, Oh my God, Christian is she the girl you have been telling me about, the one you have been going on and on about, the one who has also been the cause of your sleepless nights lately." Daniel asked his face lighting up like a kid being offered his favorite candy.
"Oh shut up for God's sake!" Christian muttered quietly, his friend was definitely going to put him in trouble.
"Hey, em how are you doing." Sara said at last, he had feared that she was not going to reply him, and was surprised and also elated when she finally did.
"Aren't you going to introduce us, ummm, Miss Sara." her friend inquired suggestively winking at him.
He made of to do the introductions himself, when Sara signalled him to stop whilst raising her cute little fingers at his face.
"I'll do the introductions myself, before you begin with your signatory handshake, Well, Christian meet my best friend Ariel, and vice-versa minus the friend." Sara said laughing quietly.
God she was so gorgeous, her laughter lighting up the whole place and breaking the almost chilled silent atmosphere forming already.
He couldn't get thoughts of kissing those pert pink full lips over and over again, of laying her down on a comfy spot, doing unmentionable things to her
Removing all illicit thoughts from his head, and trying hard not to lose focus, Christian introduced Daniel his friend to Ariel, they exchanged pleasantries and held hands for a long time, the way he was looking at her, it seemed he had already taken a liking to her.
Smiling to himself, Christian turned to face Sara and said- .....
"So we meet again, what actually brought you, or the both of you girls to the store rather, want to purchase something, pick anything, Bills on me alright."
********
Stunned, Sara's eyes bulged outwardly 'Bills on him', was he really serious, she turned to face Ariel to gauge her reaction, but her friend was already busy replying him, oh God.
Staring dumbfoundedly and lost not even knowing what to say to him she heard Ariel reply, "Bills on you, wow what a real gentleman, but that's not why we are here okay, we are here for something very important, so can I go on?"
Nodding his head Christian answered her, "Yes, you can go on."
"Okay, thanks so much, well you know the signboard you guys placed outside?"
"Signboard, what signboard." Daniel asked.
"The one advertising the job vacancy for the post of a sales girl or boy." Ariel answered.
Christian's eyebrows perked up as if he had an inkling as to what they wanted to ask for, but not letting his thoughts cloud his judgement, he asked, "Yeah, are you guys looking for a vacancy for someone or..?"
He stopped halfway deciding to listen to her but Sara spoke up.
"Yeah, actually, it's something of that sort, but we are actually looking for the position for ourselves, and as you can see we are not qualified, you know in the job requirements you listed that...." Sara was still talking when Ariel interrupted.
"Oh God, Sara fucking shut the hell up, don't mind her or listen to any word she utters from her mouth, you see, we are not eligible quite alright as my friend here said, but we are reliable to do this job, any pay whether big or small is acceptable, we really need it, and we will be glad if you can employ one of us."
She had a sassy and loud mouthed friend, that was for sure.
Sara sighed and said "You see, we are just 16, first of all and the advertisement outside read 18 years of age, and you also need an high school certificate, which we also don't have, as we are not yet done with schooling."
"For you, I would do anything." Christian replied.
'He would do anything' what did that even mean, Sara looked up at his enchanting blue eyes, she could drown in them and she laughed shyly, she knew she was blushing already but she didn't care.
"You would do anything for me, heh and what does that even mean if I may ask?" she asked.
"The job is yours already." Christian replied looking serious.

Christian was in a trance, he couldn't believe that he was actually talking to the girl of his dreams, the girl he had already mapped out his future with, he could already imagine their future together, her belly swollen with their kids, who were going to have his eyes and her beautiful caramel doused skin color.'What was wrong with him?'

I brought out my phone when she was talking, and I put on the sound recorder. Everything she said is in here, and I hope to convince Christian with this proof today.” As she finished speaking, she saw Ariel’s facial expression change from awe and surprise to something indescribable, and her heart clenched.“Don’t you want me to go talk to him?” Sara asked softly, blinking back the tears that gathered at the pool of her eyes and beneath her lashes.These pregnancy hormones! Damn, but they made her want to cry every second, and she just couldn’t hold it back. Sniffing, she shrugged her shoulders and waited for Ariel to say something but her friend was keeping mute.“Ariel…” She drawled softly, her hands going to her cheeks, wiping incessantly.Instead of replying as expected, Ariel just took a step towards her, pulling her in for a hug as she wr

SARAStaring lazily at the ceiling up ahead, Sara blinked her eyes twice for the umpteenth time that night.She was trying to force herself to sleep but it wasn’t working at all. She had turned and tossed tirelessly on the bunk bed she shared with Ariel, and even after some complaints from her best friend, she just didn’t stop.She couldn’t stop rather, with her mind going haywire and streaks of dried tears still on her face.Letting out a soft sniffle and whimper, as if she wanted to begin crying again, Sara turned to the left side of the bed, her eyes wandering about as she looked around the dimly lit hostel room. It wasn’t so late at all, and she and Ariel were the only ones in the room, as they had eaten their dinner albeit hurriedly, and then come back to rest.Now though, the last thing Sara was doing was having a good rest, and she hated this feeling so much!

Are you just going to give up after everything you’ve done? Everything we’ve been through together?”Dinah just rolled her eyes, her hands going to her forehead as she heaved out loud in frustration.“I don’t know what to think again Tessa. I mean after all I did, I still don’t have Christian in my grasp. I mean he told me prop and plain that he’s leaving this town.”“To where again?” Tessa asked, and letting out a hiss Dinah replied, “Seattle.

Missed the feel of his arms around her body, the cologne from his shirt, and his husky voice breathing sweet nothings in her ear.Now more than ever, as she stared right at him still smiling, Sara realized just how much she missed having him close to her.Well, now she was here and she would remedy that all to quickly.She continued staring at him, but then seeing how unmoving he was, the stoic look in his face, and the brewing silence that thickened the atmosphere, Sara could only note that something was wrong somewhere.“Hey Christian…” She called out again, this time waving her right hands at him as she asked again, “What’s up?

TWO DAYS LATER SARAThe first thing Sara saw when she opened her eyes were the blinding white lights in the room, and the pungent smell of medicine and blood that made her want to puke.She lurched, her head almost springing up from the soft bed she was laying on, but she stayed still. Where was she? She began to wonder, her mind spinning as she tried to recall any event, but her head was blank.She tried to say something, but her voice was stuck, her throat sore and it felt like she hadn’t eaten or drank anything in days. Worse, she felt weak, all her body ached and she still had the strong urge to puke her stomach out.“Sara? Sara are you there?” Someone was saying, and blinking twice her vision still blurry, Sara saw two pair of hands waving over her face.“Sara? Can you hear me?” The ever familiar voice said again, and nodding softly Sara finally managed to say, “I can hear you.

A small sad smile creeping up his lips, his feelings further intensified when he felt the gentle fragile hands of his mother sneaking up his shoulders, as she squeezed lightly.“Don’t you think you are in a haste son? Have you thoroughly thought about everything?”She asked softly.Christian knew she meant no harm with her words, but her words reminded him so much of Sara and quickly he went off.Like a spark lighting up in his head, he blurted out angrily shrugging her hands off his shoulders, “Mother, if this is about Sara, you can just dead the topic. I don’t want to talk about her.”An awkward silence brewing, and the atmosphere becoming tense Mrs Smith finally broke it off, clearing her throat and chuckling almost inaudibly.“Son!
