FALLING FOR THE UNEXPECTED

Lena's pov
As the evening wore on, Ntsika and I continued to talk and laugh together. I felt a sense of comfort and ease with him that I hadn't experienced in a long time.
As we were getting ready to leave, Ntsika asked me if I wanted to grab a nightcap at his place. "It's just a few minutes from here," he said. "We can hang out for a bit longer."
I hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do. But Ntsika seemed so genuine and kind that I eventually agreed.
"Okay, sure," I said. "But just for a little while."
Ntsika smiled and we walked to his car. As we drove to his place, I felt a sense of excitement and nervousness. What would his place be like? Would we be alone?
We arrived at Ntsika's house, and I was impressed by its beauty. It was modern and sleek, with large windows and a stunning view.
Ntsika showed me around the house, and we ended up in the living room, sipping wine and talking. I felt more and more at ease with him, and our conversation flowed easily.
As the night wore on, I realized that I had lost track of time. It was getting late, and I knew I should probably head home.
But Ntsika seemed reluctant to let me go. "You can stay here for the night, if you want," he said. "I have a guest room."
I hesitated, unsure of what to do. But Ntsika's kind eyes and warm smile put me at ease.
"Okay, thank you," I said finally.
Ntsika smiled and showed me to the guest room. As I got ready for bed, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and nervousness. What would the night bring?
