I finally followed him and we headed towards his car, he opened the passenger seat for me and I entered and we drove off,I kept my head bowed looking at my hands
"what's your name?"he asked,I raised my head and met his gaze and my heart skipped a bit
GOD! he is so gorgeous!!
"Clarissa..Clarissa Armstrong" I replied,he smiled,he became more handsome when he smiled
"I am Alexander Blake,nice to meet you"
"you too"
everywhere became silent after some minutes,he broke the silence
"what happened,you were looking sad earlier"I became silent,I didn't know how to answer
"it's okay if you don't.."
"I was fired at my place of work"I answered with my head down,I was feeling emotional again,I felt the car stop moving and a hand raised my chin
"hey don't cry,I'm sorry for asking"he tried to console me,
"do you want to grab a coffee"he asked
I looked away in embarrassment and said
"I am not with money"he chuckled,the sound was so pleasant to my ear
"don't worry I will pay" he said and I nodded,he started the car and drove to a coffee shop,we entered and he ordered for us, I just sat there looking at my hands
"do you want to share with me" he asked and I looked up when I saw his face I felt like I can trust him so I decided to tell him,so I told him everything
"what did the man say"he asked
"which man"
"the one that flirted with you" he said,
"he didn't say anything,he just sat there enjoying the play"I answered
"ahh,that fool I feel like punching him right now"he said with a serious face,I giggled and he looked at me
"what?"I asked softly
" I just realized now that you're very beautiful I didn't realize it before because I was worried"I blushed when I heard what he said,I looked down and started playing with my fingers,he suddenly laughed and said
"I just realized now that you are not only beautiful but also shy" he started laughing again hearing him laugh I felt happy,I pouted and looked at him to stop laughing,he finally stopped but kept smiling
"do you want a new job"he asked
"yes,my house rent will be due in a month,I really wish I can be able to get one"I answered truthfully
