" You know what , you're going to call her this morning and tell her I can't make it , I don't care what lie or excuse you have to give but I, Tiffany ain't going on that date " I said putting my sleep mask on and turning to my bed
"Seriously , Tiff I can't just tell that to mum , she's gonna start crying . please do me a solid , huh sugar " Shirley pleaded .
With a huff , I turned to Shirley " This once , just this once ", I made a sign with my index finger signalling once .
"By the way, when's the date " I asked Shirley , " 7 pm , tonight", She replied . " What, and you're telling me this now !!!" I screamed "Sorry girl".
"You know what ?, Let's just head to work and see what happens later " .
7 HOURS LATER
"In 30mins work's gonna be over Tiff , and the date's by 7 , and God knows you take over three hours to get ready so let's head home " Shirley said exasperatedly . I check my watch and it was really almost 5 pm , well time flies fast " Okay let's go" I said as I sighed , these people just won't leave me alone . I pick up my car keys and head to the parking lot , I enter the driver's seat and put on my seatbelt sitting and waiting for Shirley
"What colour of lipstick would suit you most ??" Shirley pondered out loud as she made a debate in her head and finally she choose the dark red lipstick and some gloss over it , the make up look was that of a winged eyeliner , blush , mascara, it had a wild touch to it with the smokey eyeshadow which had me feeling confident
"it's 6:45 Shire gotta go, bye" I kiss her both cheeks leaving remains of my lip gloss. I pick up my car keys and then I'm out the door .
At the restaurant
I waited 15 minutes for him , red flag-1 and finally the man of the hour arrived .
"Hi, I'm so sorry I'm late " he said while exhaling as though he ran a mile , "I'm Reginald and you are ?" he stretches his hand out . My attention left the menu and is now directed at him "I'm your blind date" I said emotionless "Well you sure are beautiful " he brings his hand down awkwardly .
" So tell me a bit about yourself " he said , "Like what" I retorted , " Your name , age , job or stuff like that " he said as he smiled . I sighed and started " I am Tiffany Crystal Damond, and I'm 23 years old this year . I work at Brixton corps as their anime designer and script writer , what about you " I said and forced a smile beckoning him to introduce himself
" I'm Reginald Sailor , I'm 37 this year I work at Shinmie , as their architect and main designer " he said . "Okay, well Reginald let's go straight to the point I don't want to be here , not because of you but because I like to stay single so please , excuse me ".
I stand to leave and he holds my hand " at least give me a chance " he smiled charmingly .Reg flag-2 he held my hand without permission .
I sat back down and stared at him , he took the menu into his hand as if on que a waiter began to walk towards us "what would you like ?" the waiter asked with a polite smile "She would like a salad " Reginald told the waiter . Red flag-3, ordering me a salad . I silently prayed for this whole shenanigans to be over . But then...
The eating part came , he ordered a whole bunch of things off the menu that made me wonder if he was sane . He chewed with his mouth open and made loud noises , Red flag-4
' If you're wondering the limit of my red flag is 7 , once you pass 7 we can't work 'back to the "date"
"You know all you ladies like guys with money , Ir lrike thsatz you ahr nor lrrike them " he said as he chewed , Red flag-5 , lack of table manners and stereotypical.
"Sir, maybe you're used to girls falling at your feet but trust me when I say this not all girls are like that , your stare disgusts me and so does your appearance, I mean couldn't you have at least dressed up decently , you talk with food in your mouth and you chew loudly I mean even kids , toddlers know that is not right but sure you wouldn't because your appearance fits that of an animal and your behaviour confirms it . Now please excuse me "
I know that I just made a scene which is unlike me , but I just couldn't stand the man . People kept staring at me as I walked towards the door and to my car , when I got out of there I heaved a sigh of relief and began to chuckle to myself thinking about the mans facial expression
CHLOE'S POV
I was out on a business meeting like every other night and in the process of talking to my client at my table I spotted a girl , she looked beautiful not the cute doe eye look , no it was the siren bad b**** look and it looked she was out on a date so I turned my attention back to my client
That was when I heard her outburst , and she really looked like kitten a cute little one at that but the type with a fiery temper .
