“I have considered other women before, but I don’t feel like any of them has what I’m looking for. If you don’t accept the offer, I guess I’ll have to continue on as a single dad,” Adrian said sounding defeated.

He looked so sad and deflated that it made me feel so guilty for being the source of his distress.

“Why do you want me to take this job so badly?” I asked curiously.

“I think you’ll do great at it, and I also want to help you out. I think your situation is unfortunate and there are many things that happened that was beyond your control. Why don’t you help me and allow me to help you out?” Adrian offered passionately.

It was like his kindness and earnestness struck a chord within me. The way his eyes held mine as he waited patiently for my answer reminded me of someone that I knew from my childhood days. Perhaps that was why I made the decision that I did.

“You remind me of someone...very kind...” I replied softly after some thought.

“You also remind me of someone that I used to know...young and full of life,” Adrian replied before offering me a gorgeous smile.

“I look forward to working with you...and Millie...” I said before smiling at him.

.....

Adrian’s face lit up as his green eyes widened in slight disbelief at my words of agreement. The look of happiness on his face gave me some confidence that I had made the right decision. When he flashed a radiant and captivating smile my way, I knew that I had only seen a brief sample of Adrian’s charismatic character and that there was a lot more to come.

“I’ll take care of you,” Adrian promised.

The rest of the evening that I spent in his company passed by in a blink of an eye. We relaxed into each company, and I had to say that I enjoyed my time talking to him immensely. Although we didn’t discuss anything serious, the small talk we made gave me quite a lot of insight to the man that he was.

Adrian offered to drive me home, but I turned him down. I was still staying with Justin, and he had promised to pick me up when I wanted to head back.

“Thank you for the kind offer but Justin is here to pick me up,” I declined politely.

“Is that the case? That’s unfortunate. I would have loved to spend more time with you,” Adrian said and I could hear regret in his voice.

“We’ll probably have a lot of time when I start working for you,” I said reassuringly.

“You mean when you start dating me,” Adrian quickly corrected with a teasing smile.

“Yeah...you can put it that way too,” I replied with a small laugh.

“I look forward to it. I’ll be in touch,” he said.

“Sure...me too...” I readily agreed.

Adrian was perfect in every way and if I was any younger or less experienced, I think I would have fallen for his charms right away. He walked me to where Justin was waiting for me in his car. After opening the door for me, I got into the car, and we said our polite goodbyes.

“That doctor is smoking hot in that grey suit!” Justin cried out excited as he drove away.

He brought a hand up and started fanning himself like he was in heat. It was so funny how he always exaggerates things in his own way.

“You sound disgusting...” I teased.

“Never mind me and how disgusting I sound. How did it go? You two love birds were hitting it off right in front of me, so I don’t even know why I’m bothering to ask,” Justin asked and then started answering his own question.

“It’s all good. I’m hired,” I declared proudly.

“Oh, yes! Yes! First official client coming right up!” Justin yelled at the top of his lungs.

“Calm down...” I hissed at him.

“I’m going to send him the contract first thing tomorrow morning and make sure that the deal is properly signed and sealed!” Justin continued yelling.

Justin laughed and sung in the car loudly until we made it back to his place. His happiness seriously rubbed off on me and I found myself smiling even long after I had gotten into bed after taking a relaxing shower. Adrian and I had exchanged numbers so that we could keep in touch at his suggestion.

I smiled a little to myself as I felt heat rush to my cheeks. It had been many years since I last felt this way as I stared down at the text message that had just popped up on my phone. It was short and simple, but it made my heart skip more than a beat.

‘Goodnight’ was all that the message said but it was signed with his name, Adrian.

...

The next day, I moved into my new apartment. The furniture that I had ordered will be arriving today. Any moment now, the delivery guy should turn up with my delivery. I spent almost the entire day supervising the delivery guys ensemble all the furniture that I had ordered and put them in place where I wanted them.

It was late in the afternoon by the time everything was done, and the delivery guys left. Looking around the sparsely decorated room, I was quite satisfied with the result. All the essentials were there, and the room was tidy and clean. If I spent a few days here, the place should look lived in and homier. The curtains were installed already too.

I walked over to the curtain covering the glass sliding doors that led out to the balcony and pulled them to the side. My excitement suddenly vanished at the view that I saw from my room. Smack on the building opposite the one I was in, was the building with the large billboard promoting the launch of EROS’s new album. Of course, it had a huge photo of him on it.

I wonder when they’re going to take it down...
