Ashley's POV:
After leaving Nini's place, here I am making my way to aunt Luciana's house. While the party isn't big, just a normal friends' gathering, I don't understand why does she wants me to be there.
I smiled as I saw a convenience store. I'm craving for some chocolates. I went in, the girl at the cashier greeted me with a ninety degree bow, I nodded in response. I took my favourite chocolates, and pointed at my favourite drink to a employee standing nearby, it was kept high up in the beverage cooler, so I couldn't reach it.
He gave me two cans as I asked, I turned, intending to go to the cashier again, but before I could leave, something caught my eye.
'GREEN LAYS CHIPS'
The same one I saw in Stellan's picture, the picture I saw for the first time and fell for him.
The scene played in my head again:
'I'm sitting in the metro, constantly tapping my screen watching Instagram stories and there comes Charles's story. A handsome, no extremely, unimaginably, strikingly handsome, it looked like a dream, my dream.
Waittt!! It's not Charles at all, he's way more handsome than him...
The picture showed the left side of his handsome face, his sharp jawline, messy hair, clean and fair skin with just a bit visible beard hairs, which gave his striking face, a manly touch, his nose way too slim, even a water droplet couldn't stay still there, medium length eyelashes, arched brows in a very perfect shape, his dark brown eyes shone with a glimpse of sunlight, a small earring in his left ear, his large hand brought a piece of chips to his slightly opened mouth as he looked somewhere in his right, a very sexy pose, but he still looked cute to me.
I smiled unknowingly. I suddenly snapped back to reality as a robotic voice came in the boggy, I reached my station, I hurriedly exited.
When I came out of the metro station, I decided, I need to find this guy at any cost, then I noticed it's a mentioned back story, so I can find his account right now. I opened it and found many other sexy pictures on his account.
HELL ... I'm dripping for the first time in my life, looking at a guy in picture.'
It's been one month and eight days now, but I still remember everything that happened that day, my whole day went really really well after seeing his pictures. They're still struck in my brain.
I remember I've stalked his account for almost three weeks, then I liked one of his story and he sent me a follow request himself. Wow! Why wouldn't I accept if my crush is sending me follow request by himself.
I waited if he took the initiatives, but none, not even a single like on my uploads once in a long time. Eventually, when I texted him by myself. What happens? What do I get? His dry texts? And then his rejection? I couldn't even fvcking propose him.
Tears shone in my eyes, I regret saying that. My words about his mother would definitely have offended him.
I looked at the ceiling, trying to prevent tears from falling. Finally, I bought what I was here for and left the store.
While I was busy checking my bag again if I've not left anything in the store like most of the time, someone bumped into me, my face buried in his chest. Startled, I instantly stepped back, the back of my foot, hit something hard. A rock. I stumbled, almost fell but got a grip in time.
Thanks to God, my stuff didn't fell, if it did, he wouldn't have been standing still.
"I'm sorry", a deep voice came from behind me, showing no guilt for what he did, I almost fell. I realised he was leaving.
I cursed under my breath. Steadied myself. But, When I looked around to see who it was, the guy had already left, he was probably running fast.
I scrambled my hair in frustration. 'Why does all the bad things happen to me?'. I sighed and made my way to aunt Luciana's place.
