"Mildred, I've found an apartment where you can live in." My friend Cora said as we ate lunch inside her house.
I smiled widely.
"Really? How much is the rent?" I asked in excited tone.
"One thousand per month, it has its own electricity and water. So what?"
Shoot! That's literally cheap, finally!
"Yes! That's okay, when can I see the apartment?" I asked, full of energy.
"This afternoon, sis. I'll do my laundry first. Can I?" She asked.
"Sure, I can wait. By the way, thanks for finding an apartment for me." I giggled.
"Don't thank me, that's one of my responsibilities as your friend." She answered then we both chuckled.
I have been staying with Caroline since my parents died in an accident. I was very lucky that she even volunteered for me to live with her. I agreed, of course, I didn't even know where to get money at that time. But I tried to find a job, I found one, I became a waiter in a bar, after all I was old enough to work in there.
I saved money and decided to separate from Caroline so that I could live on my own. I also don't want to be a burden to her, she has helped me a lot and that is enough.
I'm still a student, a working student. I'm in third year college, twenty years old and I'm taking Bachelor of Secondary Education. Yes, I want to be a teacher, that's only what I want.
"How's your relationship with Andrei?" Caroline suddenly asked.
I laughed, he's talking about my ex suitor.
"You're already late Car, he's rejected." I answered and drink my water.
"What? Why? He's beauty with brains!" She scoffed.
I laughed again, but harder.
"But he's pervert, do you know how much I hate perverts! Come think of it, he's just courting me but he's taking advantage, he's brushing my legs when we're watching on cinema, last saturday." I tell her, with disgusting and grumpy face.
She's the one who laughed this time.
"I bet, that was your last date?" She smirked.
"Of course! After the movie I already rejected him!" I exclaimed then we both laughed.
To be honest, I already have an ex boyfriend, only one but I still have my virginity. That's actually the reason why I broke up with him, because he wants to take me but I don't want to. I really hate perverts! They don't even know the word respect, dammit. I just want to give myself to the man I'll marry.
In the afternoon, like what she said, Caroline and I went to the apartment where she said I could move. It's a tall building with up to five floors, the apartment where I'll live is on the fifth floor. I was lucky and I got it cheap, it rarely happens.
I'm wearing simple, a purple cardigan and a high waisted jeans with a pair of white nike shoes. I tie my hair into high ponytail and I also put some lipbalm on my lips.
Caroline and I entered and we were the only two in the elevator, after pressing the fifth floor button, I pressed the close button and the door was about to close when a hand stopped it.
And the long, black -haired man wearing a gray cap entered the elevator.
He stepped aside from me which caused me to move away from him, while Caroline was busy with her cellphone on the side.
I simply turned to the man next to me, he was wearing a black sweater and beige cargo shorts while his two hands were inside his pocket.
I can’t deny that he’s handsome, nope, he’s attractive. Maybe because of his style, plus his perfume that smells around. I just can't see his face clearly because of the cap he was wearing.
"Stop staring, that's bad."
I was shocked when he talk without looking at me. I quickly turned to the front. That's embarassing! Fortunately, the elevator opened and it was funny that we're going on the same floor.
I went out first while Caroline followed me. She's still busy with her cellphone, this woman doesn't even care around!
"Miss, I think you forgot something."
I stopped walking then turned my back.
The man with long hair is standing while his both hands is still inside his pockets.
I raised an eyebrow at him.
"What is that?" I asked.
"You forgot to tell me your name." He said and grinned foolishly.
My lips parted.
"What the?" I asked in disbelief.
"Why? You're just staring at me a while ago." He said then tilted his head to the side.
"W-who the fuck are you to ask my name?!" I exclaimed. "And I'm not actually staring at you a while ago! I'm just in deep thoughts!" I reasoned out.
I can saw how the side of his lips rose up.
"Why do you want to know my name?" He asked playfully.
I covered my mouth, what is he fucking talking about?!
"I didn't say that!" This jerk, he's crazy!
"But you just asked me who are me a while ago." He answered, f'ck that 'a while ago' thingy!
I just shooked my head, this guy is, unbelievable! By the way, why I'm talking to him? I'm just waisting my time!
I was about to turn around and leave him when he talk again.
"What's your name?" He asked again.
"Why do you fucking want to know my name?" I asked angrily.
"Because you're sexy." He answered simply at the same time shrugging his shoulder.
My eyes widened then I immediately turned around, I saw Caroline is already far away so I ran fast to chase her. But my mind was still on the man with a long hair.
Did he just call me sexy that's why he wants to know my name?! Is he a jerk?! I really fucking hate perverts! Oh God, how could be that good looking and attractive guy is pervert?! Dammit.
