VII- MEETING WITH THE STRANGER
734 Words
JOANNA'S POV
Instantly, a strange feeling of heat came over me maybe because of the alcohol that was overflowed upon my body or how he was good at seducing me of just merely looking at me.
"Oh, babe, why so irritated? a young beautiful lady should not be left out alone by his boyfriend," he said seriously looking straight to my eye.
"I don't have a boyfriend.And for your information mister, your intruding to my privacy," I said while stammering of how he looked at me as if he likes to devour the whole of me.
"I see, well and good, I am lucky enough to meet you tonight, babe!" he said and smiled proudly at me.
"Oh, forget about it, Mister proud, I am not interested so back off," I said dismissing him.
My heart was pounding so hard of his nearness to me. This was my first time to be this close to a man to a strange place. I was alredy tipsy of the drinks that I have consumed for how many hours already. The man was too stubborn to move away from me. So, I decided to stand and move out from this place but just as I was about to stand, my sight was in circling motion, I felt so heavily dizzy. I steaded and composed myself but I could not move my legs and walk away.
Maybe, Mr.Proud man felt my dizziness and being tipsy, he held my both shoulders to support me. But instead of thanking him, I unclasped his hands on my shoulders and moved away from him. In just a single stride I lost my balance and begun to collapse but two strong masculine arms catched me.This time, I was not able to get out from his possession upon me maybe because I was already drunk and I was lost with his touch.
"Oh, mister, my goodness, I can walk on my own, let me go!!!" I angrily complained.
"Don't be stubborn young lady, you can't hardly walk, let me help you, my arms are strong enough to carry you, where to? at my place or your place?" he mused laughingly.
"Oh no...oh no... you don't understand, let me go or else I'll call my....I'll call the police...yes, that's it I will call the police for intruding with me!!!you Mr.proud man, your bullshit! you don't care about my happiness!!!," I said in tipsy tone while tears kept falling from my eyes.
I did not hear any words from the man but I felt that he had released a deep sigh and walked fastly towards the exit of the bar. I just closed my eyes and I was damn exasperated to get out from him. He was not minding with the people he had bumped in as long as he had walked with long stride while carrying me out. We had moved out from the bar. I felt strong breeze touched my skin. He had seen how I felt cold so he embraced me close to him.
Instead of pulling myself from his tight embrace, I submitted myself to him and felt his warmness and peacefulness of being held by him. I put my head close to his neck and I smelled his woody masculine perfume that added more to my free-spirited feeling. This was the best feeling ever to be this close to a stranger.
"So, Miss Tipsy, open your eyes and stop smelling me, where will I take you home?" he asked seriously while pulling my head up with his other hand to look at me straight to my eyes.
Our heads were too close to each other that I felt his breath as he spoke to me. I was stunned when I opened my eyes to see his blue eyes studying my face. We were staring each other for how many seconds before I muttered some words.
"Home!Home!Home! Mister let's go home!!! there..there...there..take me there...," laughing out loud while pointing to any direction.
I could not think straight already. My mind was already blurred with right thinking of the alcohol that hitted me hard. I just wanna sleep and let go of the things I could not control any more. It felt so good to be in his arms, just like being cradled soflty and relaxingly till I could not remember anymore what had happened because I was swept away with deep slumber.
