He stared at me in a way that I've never been looked at
before,I didn't know what to do or say,so I just stood there,.He
silently walked over to me,never breaking his gaze on me,when
he got infront of me,he let out a huge sigh and hugged me,the
hug lasted for a while,I tried to pull away but he tightened his
grip and we remained like that for what felt like a good five
minutes,.It was getting a bit awkward..
Me : (finally breaking free from the long hug.)So..(clearing my
throat)How did you know where to find me,?
Luke : I didn't,I had lost hope in ever finding you,I searched for
you for months,even hired a PI to help me investigate,from
your high school,I remembered the name from your story
which you told me that night,.no one knew where you
dissapeared to, everyone seemed to have seen you just before
you closed,Its been a frustrating 6 months,I call Fred everyday
to check whether you've called about a job,.Today,its just by
luck,I guess my prayers got answered. I came to meet up a
client at Mugg&Bean, halfway through my meeting I looked
across to this restaurant and saw you clearing the outside
tables,I ran here to make sure it was you.
I kept quiet,I honestly didn't know what to say to him,I didn't
know what all that meant,why would he go through so much
trouble for someone like me?surely he had better things to do..
Luke : Have you been taking care of yourself well?Where's the
little one?I haven't stopped thinking of you since that day.,did
you get the cash?the note,?It had my number,I waited for your
call..
He wasn't pausing to let me answer any of his questions,I had
to hold his hand to make him stop talking..
Me : We are okay..I..(A man raised his hand for service)..sorry
,the customers are waiting.
Luke : I'll wait,.
He sat down and watched me work,I went up and down,from
the kitchen,tables and counter,I did all this while he never took
his eyes off me,my heart was beating fast,I wanted to be done
with my shift so we talk and I know what it all meant,I failed to
concentrate,all I was thinking was "Oh my God,LUKE IS OVER
THERE!",I needed someone to talk to and Neo had an exam,she
had sent a text earlier,.She's the one who could've helped me
deal with all of this.
I finally finished up my shift,hung my apron and went over to
him.
Me : All done..
Luke : (Standing up,)Great,I'll take you home,.
He held my hand and we walked out to his car and drove off.,
Luke : How do you get home during all these other days?
Me : Our supervisor drops us off
Luke : Are you in school?
m
Me : Yeah,UB,accounting,.
Luke : You knock off so late,how do you manage?And where's
Cassie?
Me : I'm used to it by now,my landlady looks after Cassie when
I have night shifts on weekdays ,she loves kids..
I caught him up with all the changes in my life,work,school
life,my course and tutoring sessions,Cassie's new school and
also told him what happened next that day I was kicked out of
his house,he listened quietly while driving,I gave him directions
to my house and he parked infront of the gate,he turned off the
ignition and turned his body to face me. He was too quiet and
just looked at me. It was putting me under pressure.
Me : So,where is your fiancee?or is she the wife now?
Luke : (fast to answer)I left her,she got pregnant by another
man.
Me : Sorry to hear that.
Luke : I'm over it,let's not talk about it,...
Me : Okay..
We remained quiet for a while and he finally spoke..
Luke : Eva...I was serious,I haven't been able to think of
anything else other than you,you have consumed my life so
much,.I met you for just a few hours but you have had an
unbelievable effect on me..
Me : What are you saying Luke?
he took my hand and looked into my eyes,I felt hot all of a
sudden,my heart was racing..
Luke : Let me take care of you,And cassie,I don't ever want
you to need anything,I can't explain how I feel about you,I just
know I want to be there for you,please?
Me : You just got out of a relationship
Him : I just told you now,I'm over her,That woman nearly
broke me inside but I got lucky,I managed to mend my heart,I
nearly gave up when I couldn't find you but today happened
and it gave me hope. There's no way I'm giving up on you now,
Not after all these months of hell!
His words were sincere,I could see it in his eyes,there was no
doubt that I felt something for him,the chills that his touch sent
through my veins were proof enough,but my doubts about his
emotional state were just strong,Its only been a few months,I
didn't know anything about his relationship with Lisa but for
him to endure all that treatment that I witnessed,even if I saw a
piece of it,he had to be in love, totally devoted and determined
to make it work no matter what,either that or she had crippled
him emotionally and mentally to make him think that what they
had was normal. On top of everything,they broke up because
SHE cheated,not because he wanted to get out of it,he may
say that I was a big part of the reason why he broke it off but
still,why couldn't he see on his own that Lisa wasn't right for
him?..But maybe i was overthinking, It's always been my flaw,I
only looked for negatives in situations,no matter how good
they were,I mean,here was a guy,one of the good,kind and
caring ones,declaring his feelings for me and I was already
mentally fighting it..
Me : Can I think about it?Its too sudden.,
Luke : (A little disappointed)Sure..
Me : I have to go now,its late,still have to get Cassie,(pulling
my hand from his and opening the door)..Bye!
I got out and quickly closed the door in an attempt to just get
out of there and go think clearly without his eyes piercing on
me,before I could get to the gate he was out of the car.
Luke : EVA!You are not leaving without giving me your
number!!
I turned around to him pointing his phone at me,I got it and
punched my number,he took the phone,dialled the number and
looked at me.,my phone rang.
Luke : Just checking.
Me : Why would I give you a wrong number?You now know
where I stay(smiling)
Luke : I'm not taking any chances this time..
Me : (laughing)okay..
Luke : I'll call you hey
He extended his hands to give me one of his loong hugs,.
Luke : I don't wana let go
Me : U have to,I got classes in the morning remember!(pulling
back)and you have work..
Luke : I'll call you..
Me : Okay,.Bye!
I turned to go but he grabbed my arm and pulled me to him
with great force that sent me flying into his chest,he raised my
chin with his fingers forcing me to look up to him and he
leaned in for a kiss,he pressed his lips so hard against mine
and passionately kissed me while cupping my cheeks,I always
hear of how perfect heaven is,if that moment wasn't it,then I
don't know what is. His breath was minty and his lips were so
soft,I just melted. He pulled away and planted a baby kiss on
my forehead..
Luke : I'll call you,.(I couldn't respond)Go..I'll wait for you to
get in the house,.
I headed to the landlady's house to get Cassie,I carried her to
my house,unlocked and checked to see if he was still at the
gate,he waved.I got in,locked the door,put Cassie on the bed
and peeped through the window to watch his Black Jeep
reverse and take off..
What a perfect day!..
Minutes later
*text
you are already mine,you just don't know it yet. Your liiiips!I'm
never parting ways with them again,it took everything in me to
break that kiss!
9t, hope I didn't keep you too long, i know it was late.
I blushed and went to sleep..
The next day after classes I was waiting in the study room for
my one on one session with some new student who I just
heard about in class,,apparently it was "important "that I
squeeze in this one on one,it was a special request from the
director,"the student had to have his own session",must be
one those rich kids,a few weeks back I had a student with
similar a request ,he was an exchange from China,he was the
son of a minister there from what I hear ,he too requested a
private session,I guess the rich don't want to be mixed with
other students,I don't know what they gain from that
though,group discussions help a great deal in catching up
faster,but thats not what they preffered,I was just happy with
the extra cash for private tutoring..,
I was texting Luke,,we had been whatsapp texting since his
call early in the morning,we were talking about everything we
saw as the day went on and teasing each other,I was smiling
like an idiot,alone in the room.
Voice : Are you really good at what you do?I've been talking to
you for the past minute but all your attention is taken up by
that thing..
I looked up
Me : (Surprised)what are you doing here?
Him : No way!..You!?
