Capítulo 3: The Man In My Dream
*Jenny*
Why is this happening? All I wanted was a quiet dinner with Ebony when this certain person whom I wished not to see just happened to bump into us, along with a chic who can't seem to keep her hands to herself. They even joined us at our table! The audacity I tell you.
"So how have you been?", his voice brought me back to reality, I didn't realize I was staring blankly at them. I managed to just hum at him. "I mean after we stopped seeing each other, I rarely hear from you.". That's obviously the reason but I felt a pang in my heart, we dated back then but it only lasted for a few months. It was a mutual decision but he seems to have gotten over it quite quickly while I, on the other hand, was actually having a hard time. I hate to admit it but I still do have feelings for this guy but I guess I was the only one who took our relationship seriously.
"I have… Um, got really busy so-"
"Baby, aren't you gonna introduce me?" The blondie beside him interrupted me. I had no problem with her but the way she caressed his thighs in front of us, in a public place, annoyed me. She wore a silky mini red dress that flaunts her long smooth legs and with her looks, men would surely notice her.
"Sorry baby," he crossed his arm around the woman. I can only conclude one thing with their proximity. He then said to us, "Meet my baby, Sasha.". I slightly froze but I already saw this coming.
"Your baby?," Ebony repeated as she glanced at me for a few seconds before continuing, "You mean your girlfriend."
They looked at each other's lips, then made a quick kiss after smiling at each other. "Yeah, my girlfriend.". I felt a slight sting inside me but I kept my calm. I noticed the worried look on Ebony's face as she looked at me, I just gave her a small smile.
"Well, good for you then," I said, gaining their attention, "I'm happy for you, Louie and it's nice meeting you, Sasha.". I then stood up, "If you would excuse me for a minute.". I was planning to go to the comfort room, this was too much for me. I was glad I managed to say those things to them but deep inside, my tears were threatening to burst. However, before I could even pass the corner to the comfort room, a figure stood in front of me.
"It's nice to see you again.", his voice echoed through my mind.
I blinked a few times, confused as to who this man was. Him, being handsome would surely make me remember him. Where did I meet this wavy redhead man? Wait, is it him? As if he knew I recognized him, he flashed a smile before me. I couldn't hide my blush, it was a genuine smile.
"Hey, Jen, is everything all right?" I turned to Louie as I heard his voice. Our table was near the corner so they must've seen me with the stranger. And speaking of a stranger…
"Hi, the name's Noel," he held his hand to Louie, who at first stared at the hand for a few seconds but eventually returned the gesture and they shared a handshake.
"Louie, she's Jenny," Louie pointed his head in my direction. He seemed to be wary of Noel but why? I'm not his girlfriend anymore. I threw a small glare at Louie, he is the one who initiated our breakup so how dare he act like this, and in front of his so-called 'baby'. I glanced at our table, the girlfriend was retouching her makeup while Ebony was smirking at me, she will surely bug me after this incident. I rolled my eyes when she gestured to me to go on back with the situation. I looked back only to see those captivating blue eyes focus on me. I grew shy because of it.
"What do you want?" I felt the hostility in Louie's voice so I glared at him, nudging him in the process.
"Oh, I just wanted to say hi to the beautiful lady I saw last night," So it is him, I unconsciously smile at him, which he smiled back, "And eventually get to know her more, I guess." Okay, that was smooth.
"You said hi and got her name, that should be enough." Louie said that made me frown, really, acting like a boyfriend now.
"What is wrong with you?" I confronted him, "You're being such a jerk-".
"No, it's alright," Noel said interrupting me though his hand on my back was really what halted me. He then handed me a calling card, "Here, I'm sure we will meet again.". I took it while he backed away slowly, then smiled at me before he went on his way.
"I can't believe you took that." Louie's disapproving tone made me glare at him again.
"I can't believe how rude you were." I countered while passing him and intentionally bumping his shoulder towards our table.
"I was just looking out for you-".
"Looking out for me?!" I looked back at him after I slid the card in my purse, "You should've done that back when we were still together," He looked surprised, I then took my bag and said to Ebony, "Let's go, Ebony," Then I looked back at him, "We better not spoil their dinner.". He called out my name but I didn't listen and then we left the resto-bar.
"You go, girl!" Ebony saluted me while we were walking. I looked at her confused. She then slightly nudged me. "You finally stood up to him, it's a sign of moving on, Jen.".
"Really? Well, I'm actually surprised that I managed to do that."
"Oho~ maybe because of a certain someone?", I raise a brow at her, what does she even mean? She then let out a fed-up sigh, "The handsome guy who bumped you."
"Oh, him," I then remembered his hand behind my back. It's like electricity flowing, I definitely felt something when he touched me. And his smile, my goodness that smile, it's like heaven descended upon me, "He's the one in my dream.".
"Well from his looks, he's definitely in any girl's dream.".
"No, no, he's the one in MY dream.".
"In your-OH my gosh!" She couldn't help but clung to my arm, "The dream boy's real!". She then squealed like a pig. She seemed more thrilled than I am. "You one lucky lady! I have to tweet this!".
We both giggled happily and while Ebony was on her phone, I took out the calling card and read the man's name, Noel Darcy Locke. Even his name is like a dream. Maybe I'll dream more of him after this.
