My Secon-First Kiss

Chapter 2

* Nicole's point of view *

We went to the recently opened mall. We went around my places where I go for cosmetics, then we went to eat.

Time with Ivy was surprisingly fast, I didn't even look at my phone, which is very unnatural for me.

We sat at one of the tables in the small park, next to a supermarket. It was nice, neither too cold or too warm. I would describe it as the perfect time.

- "It amazes me" Ivy muttered under her breath

- "Which one?" I turned slightly to her

- "That you came. In general, he agreed to see me. People usually run away when they see me." She laughed slightly ironically

- "I wanted to see you in real life, I don't see a problem" I shrugged

Ivy curled up on the bench and then rested her head on my lap for a few seconds as she pulled on a cigarette burning between her fingers.

I didn't know how to react. My heart raced like crazy, everything shook, even if it was for seconds.

- "I'm sorry" she said, standing up

- "No, no problem" I smiled, thinking my cheeks flushed

- "I thought you were going to push me to the ground" the girl said with a light laugh.

- "No, why should I do that?" - I looked at her confused, and her smile gradually began to fade

- "Where are we going? Aren't we going to stay here right?" she asked, stealing the papers we had left behind

- "I'm thinking of going to my old job" I said, standing up and putting my phone in my jacket pocket.

- "Where is that place?" she asked, standing beside me

- "The cafe about 200 meters in front of us" I pointed out

* 30 minutes later *

We were comfortably seated next to each other and talking. Rather, she talked about the university she studied at and her colleagues.

Although I didn't look at her very often, I listened carefully. There seem to be a lot of annoying and duplicitous people in this world.

I looked at her from time to time, when she looked away, which was very rare.

- "You actually studied to be a nurse, but then you decided to re-enroll as a doctor?" I asked her, but the question sounded more like a silly question

- "Let's just say that's true." The girl nodded slightly and sipped from her glass full of juice

* 16:10 PM at the bus station *

Ivy had decided to send me. A very nice gesture on her part, I didn't expect her to be such a nice person.

With her, we stood a little further away from the people who were waiting for the sector.

I took out my phone and took some pictures of us, most of them on it. She looked very sweet when she pretended to be angry and wrinkled her nose.

The bus was parked in the designated area and I had to say goodbye to Ivy, but the strange thing is that I didn't want to leave at all. I wanted to stay a little longer and send each other.

I hugged her tightly, then lined up with the other people to get on the bus.

As I walked home, several questions kept popping into my head.

"I don't hate her anymore?"

"Am I falling in love?"
