25th birthday
She was lonely and wished for a lifetime partner who would love her
she also had many beliefs about life (about how one should live and who to be with)
Just like that had turned 25th on the 4th of March, that is her birthday date on that very day her greatest wish as she blew off the candles on top of her birthday cake was to be loved by someone she would fall in love with, as she wished and blew off the candles her friends cheered for her
it was a small birthday party for just a few friends she's close with
as they sang birthday songs and danced to the music playing in the background
her eyes cut up with someone just sitting by the corner of the bar ...
Brida one of her friends noticing asked her immediately
checking him out?
not really but his kinda cute I think she said as she danced
she danced for about five minutes and now she's tired so she stepped away from her friends to get some drinks from the counter , on her way back the guy from earlier walked up to her , she was holding two glasses of wine
is that for me , he said as he took one of the glasses from her hand , she was just looking at him no words coming out of her mouth
I'm I that handsome he said smiling as he pulled her closer , maybe too close because he can feel her breath on his face
may I have this dance ?
she just managed to nod as words have refused to come out of her mouth
her friends not too far away from were they are can't just take their eyes off them
which I suppose made her uncomfortable
she managed to say excuse me ( dropped the glass of wine she was holding to the nearest chair near her) as she rushed outside
everyone was surprised including her dancing partner , he looked back at her friends with a confused look ( like was I the cause )
they gave him a signal to follow her which he did
now outside not knowing what to do or say he just stood behind her and kept quiet as he watched her talk to herself without noticing him
she goes was I being tooz weird
why did I just ran off?
wasn't this what I wanted ?
oh Fortune you are such a fool
what will he think of me now ?
why in the world did I ran outside for ?
isn't this my party ?
Fortune, Fortune............
is that your name ?
she paused as she heard another voice she turned around to see who it was and it was him
the one she danced with
the one she ran outside for
oh my god
how long have you been standing there she asked with all the embarrassment she has left
Was I being too weird, why did I ran off he said
So you have been here all along she said facing down wishing for the ground to open for her to fall inside
I promise I'm not weird, I'm not just use to this kinda feelings she said covering her mouth with both of her hands as she keeps stepping back, away from him
stop moving you might fall off I can't catch you before you reach the ground I have got no superpowers,
what type of feelings where you referring to
he said as he reaches out for her
hold onto my hand I'm not gonna bite you, I'm not some kinda vampire, I'm flesh and blood
finally she holds his hand
may I ask your name, she said in a voice like that of a child
The name is Ivan and you are Fortune right ?
right she said still looking down , she isn't able to look him in the eye
let's sit down over here he said pointing to a bench by the corner
as they sat he asked
so do you mind telling me why you ran off
was my breath stinky he asked looking as her, he never took his eyes off her
she not being able to look him in the eye because she's to shy to do so said while facing down
you are just too much for me to handle, I think that's why , you are way too pretty or should I say handsome, my heart can't just take it
is that a sign for me to shoot my shot Ivan said as he lift's up her face with his right hand
I guess yes
before she could finish he kissed her
just then her friends who think they are taking too long came outside to look for them walked right into this kissing scene
Brida can't help but shout on top of her voice
it's happening babygirl this is the night!!!
are you both a thing Evans asked ( one of her friends)
babygirl are you blind or something Crystal asked (Brida, Evans and Crystal are the friends she hosted the party with and they are her closest friends)
without a second thought Ivan replied yes as they both sands up
Ivan lifting her right hand
yes y'all meet my girlfriend her name is Fortune
on hearing this all the three of her friends cheered
this is how her long years wish came true on the night of her 25th birthday
but will this happiness last long ?
the night is still very young Evans was still speaking when Brida add
the night has just been born

Evans : wait is that your car ???

Crystal : what type of club is this

Evans: wow it is big , hope to find my missing left rib
I thought it was the right rib the last time Crystal said and they both laughed
Fortune: so what are we suppose to do here
