CHAPTER 38: THE HANDSOME CHEF

It's him! I was thinking of him all day, and here he was; he showed up in front of me out of nowhere.
I swallowed to calm my heart. It flutters and makes loud thuds. I don't want to make it obvious that I was happy to see him, so I act casually.
"Auntie Nikki, do you know him?"
"Erm…" How do I answer this pretty girl? I glance at Theo, and he is now walking toward us.
He was too handsome and tied his hair behind his head. He is wearing a black suit, just perfectly paired with his stripes of a dark blue necktie.
"Hi, pretty ladies!"
Theo greeted us with a wide smile. I was dumbfounded, staring at him.
"Hello, Nik?"
"Hi, Theo. Wha— what are you doing here?"
"I came by your house, but your mama told me you should pick up this cutie here."
Theo leans toward Chelsea, who blushes while looking up at him.
