Episode 17

He met her pretty light brown eyes. How he wished he could draw her close and kiss her right then and there. It would be inappropriate, they were just friends. Sooner than later, that was going to change.

“Hi.”
“Hello,” she could read his expression. He found her attractive. It was a dream come true.

She had been so worried. It was one of the few times in her life that her thin-frame didn’t get in the way.

“Am I going to get a hug or not?”
She placed a hand on her hip and laughed, “No way.”
“Haba! Come here girl,” he stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her.

“Hey! Back off,” she pressed her hands on his chest.

“Shut up. You think I don’t know that you are so pumped up right now.”

She laughed harder, crushed in his warm embrace.
“It’s so good to see you.”
“Same here.”

He released her, “Wow you are pretty.”

She blushed,”You are… not bad either.”

“Just say it. I am handsome,” he winked at her.

She chuckled, “You are a trouble maker.”

“So are you,” he held her.
