When is it going to be? Charlotte mumbled to herself as she gently sits on the chair close to a table with a cup of coffee in her hands.
While she was still lost in her thoughts, her phone rang... Who could it be she asked herself as she reluctantly reached for her phone which was a little farther away from her.
Hello...she said not even sure who was on the other side of the call because she didn't care to look at the name of the caller.
This is the gentle man you met some days back at the cafe, you gave me your number few days back but I've been a little busy and couldn't call you earlier, I'm so sorry I'm calling just now he said.
Charlotte couldn't help herself but she was completely filled with excitement as the young man introduced himself.
She comported herself and cleared her throat as she replied as if she wasn't so pleased receiving his call... Yes I remember she said in a rather formal way.
They spoke formally a little longer until Drey asked Charlotte out and she agreed after rejecting a few times. Charlotte was trying to play hard to get but unfortunately she has great weakness when it comes to guys like Drey that act like a gentleman.
Charlotte was the only child of her parents but she lost them at a very young age and that has made her learn how to take care of herself from a very young age. She grew up to become a really successful lady and that has made so many men come after her but she fell victim quite a few times and that has made her very cautious of the kind of men she agrees to go out with.
She was already in her mid-twenties so she was ready to settle down but unfortunately, all the men she's met are all after her wealth. Charlotte did not let that fact change her mind about men because she chose to believe that there was someone who will love her for who she is and she was ready to keep searching for that one.
It was already 7pm, the time that Charlotte agreed to meet up with Drey. She is one elegant lady so you can try to imagine how she might look like in her dinner dress.
Drey on the other side, was also well to do and he was someone that has all he needs and he is satisfied with whatever he can afford. Unlike Charlotte, his parents are very much alive.
Hey Charlotte, it's really so nice to meet you again... Drey responded in a very friendly way.
Hi, it's nice to meet you too Drey, please have your seat.
Thank you... Drey said as he sat on the chair opposite Charlotte. I'm so sorry I came late, I had something that held me back and it was unavoidable.
It's fine, Charlotte said with a smile on her face... I'm glad you could make it.
Thank you so much for understanding, Drey replied.
So what do you do for a living? Charlotte asked...
I'm into a few things but I'm majorly into content creation, I'm a freelancer to be precise, he said.
That's quite interesting! Charlotte replied with an exciting tone. I like the sound of that she continued... So how did you become a freelancer? She asked
It was through a friend, not a close friend though he said. He was always sharing some videos with me to watch on YouTube but then I was fond of ignoring it until this particular day when I just told myself I should take a look at what he has always been sending to me and I just got so interested, he said. I've actually refused to check them out because I was busy with my studies.
And you know, Drey continued... I've always loved the idea of working from home because I want to be a good father and husband he said as with a big smile on his face. I don't want to be too far from my family you know, I'd always love to have them around me because I didn't get the opportunity to have people that genuinely cared for me except for my parents, Drey added.
While Drey was speaking, Charlotte couldn't help but admire the man in front of her because he was obviously the man of her dreems.
So what about you? Drey asked...
Well... I'm a fashion designer, I'm into the business of bringing out the best in people through their appearance, hehe. I'm quite gifted with the ideas and skills because I didn't really learn from anyone how to do what I do, so I guess I'm gifted she said.
And that's even more incredible! Drey said... No wonder you look this dashing he continued.
Thank you, I'm glad you like it, Charlotte replied...
Of course I do Drey responded, I love how you appear and I think that was what got me so attracted to you in the first place.
