THE GIRL I MET LAST FRIDAY

I was at the grocery when she walked pass me. At first I didn't turn to check who she was but I couldn't help myself in just few seconds as my neck kept jolting toward her compass, to have the full grasp of her with my eyes.

Then I saw her well gowned in pink and atavistically dared to worship, but I suddenly realized that the goddess thing had been abolished long ago. Her pulchritude made me think she is an extant remains of goddesses.

Soon I walked a bit closer to let her beauty have me in its grasp. My eyes was stunned! Her physique cast irresistible spell on me and enslaved my psyche. As she turned her forehead clearly opposite mine, I was dazzled by the hollow dimples on her cheek. And almost lost my mind as she fixed me with a stare.

Then my heart leaped and my legs gravitated some metres more toward her. There I stood, with heavy breath. My fidgeting fingers started fumbling as if their responses were not connected to my brain. Then I could feel the butterfly stuck to my stomach. My mouth was heavy because I felt she was out of my league.

Adversely, she had been smiling at me for a while and so developed a good rapport. But there I stood over 30 minutes admiring her when I was supposed to make sense on time.

I was lost in thoughts that I failed to notice her exit. My faith became jeopardized as she was nowhere in sight. It was pretty late for me but I felt I still had a chance to act against this ineptitude as I saw her through the window beside her red Toyota Matrix 2002 model.

She must have been irked by my inexpressive face and dormant lips. But I still rushed to meet her outside, to turn the tick and nick of the clock in my favour.

Behold I met her with Daniel, my brotherly friend who had been an alter ego from long time ago. Seeing them together didn't harm my intentions any bit, but watching them exchange contacts snatched every sliver of hope from my heart and fill it with dark clouds of despair. I was smitten but manage to put myself together. I left Dan with her and regrettably went home alone in a second speed.

I just met her again, even as I couldn't take my mind off her, and she has confessed the feelings she had for me while at the grocery store. But it is late. She's on a date with Daniel😭. He's the one who seized the opportunity with all his breath.

====================
This girl is every spotted opportunities that went up the spout as you failed to take actions because of fear and procrastination.
She's everything good that slipped through your fingers because of indecisiveness and non-challant behaviour.
Never let this girl go away anytime you see her even as she's not human.
