Serendipitous

The concert

Coming back to the other side of US New Jersey, Arthur is done from high school and his chances of getting into college that same year is slim. Arthur has accepted his fate of not going to college,right after high school as he planned it to be. Going on his normal life routine day after day not knowing what life had in store for him. Arthur as a musician, was invited to a music concert as one of the guest artists, going with the expectation of going to do his thing as usual and go back home but life don't always turn out the way we want it to be. With his mindset of no love around, life decided to show him superiority. As Arthur got to the venue where the concert was to hold and entered, he was sent to the front seats which was specifically arranged for the guest artist as he was seated and was busy looking around, his eye got a damsel, he immediately removed his eye and continued focusing but deep down his heart there was something going on,his heart beat had increase he could hardly hear what was said , he thought in his mind what's happening right now this isn't normal.

After the concert his eyes still found the girl were she was greeting people,. The lady that caught Arthur's eyes, name is Susan, Susan is the first daughter of her family. She comes from Paris but resides in New Jersey with her family. A curvy light fair lady with a long straight brown her falling down to her back sides and those black cataracted eyes that attract people.

Arthur for the first time is feeling something different for this lady he just met, he has seen girls but he had never felt what he is feeling on seeing her.. Of course Arthur was busy telling himself he is not allowed to feel that way. But truth be told he couldn't take her off his mind from thinking about her. As he was on his way back to the house he thought of asking some persons who the girl was and her name but he held himself back cause he was amazed on what he is feeling and wasn't so sure what he would call it. Getting to the house his expression was not Okey and his mom asked if the concert went well and he replied yes that he was just tired nothing much. He was still recalling the moment when he saw her, and thought to himself what am I doing thinking about this lady who I don't even know not even her name.

After this Arthur decided to forget about her since he might likely not see her again. He laid down on his bed picked up his phone went to his social media to chat with some friends, on logging in he saw a friend request and when he clicked on it this was a friend request from the same girl he met at the concert. He refreshed his page to make sure he hasn't started to hallucinate things, it's was still the picture of that very lady Susan. Without thinking twice he accepted the friend request and then he said wait why did I accept, what am I thinking immediately he logged out and slept off. Waking up the next morning to log in, he saw his message pop up and she chatted him up saying " hi hello ", he told himself he wasn't going to open the chat talk more of replying. He was busy chatting other people up but his mind was still on the girl's message, immediately he scrolled up and tapped on her chat and it opened, he replied saying "hi hello" it turns out that she was online and on seeing the message from Arthur she replied how are you doing? And Arthur replied saying fine but I don't know you, so can get to know your name if you don't mind, she gave a smiling emoji and said I didn't mind at all. She started by saying my name is Susan, and as him typed, OK nice meeting you. Arthur had in mind to ask her many questions but he had to act calm to avoid her thinking he is not a calm boy.

However in that very excitement, Arthur made sure to chat well with her to avoid her thinking that he wants to flirt with her. As his new friend he tried to introduce himself by telling her his name and few other things about himself, he started by telling her that his name is Arthur and that just finished high school and is waiting for his admission into college and that he lives in New Jersey where she stays. She in return explained too by telling him her name Susan, and that she is still in high school and she still lives in New Jersey just two streets away from his own house. That was were their chat ended for the day as they said bye to each other. The next day Arthur logged in to chat and Susan was online, he didn't want her to think he is trying to push her too fast into becoming friends or her seeing that he so much want to chat with her. To prevent such thinking,am good but quite busy right now we chat later he replied . Arthur was still getting his sense to understand why the special feelings toward her and since it's was his first time he was ready to take things slow and not mess it all up.

As days went by chat led to chat and the both got to know themselves and became very close friends. The were just chatting and has not seen each other though they stay close to each other. Some days went friendship grew, and then one day Arthur as usual went for an event not too far from their home, and as the event was on going he sighted Susan from a far, he had no intention to call her but she sighted him before he could remove his eyes from her and that led to them meeting after the event ended and as they were discussing, Arthur suggested that they should meet up next time to talk

. Before Susan agreed to the meeting her mind was just thinking about the fact that she was with a guy she crushes on, just like a dream come true and then Arthur tapped her to know her response, she said sorry,I was lost in thought. Yes that will be great and Arthur said, okay let me see you off to enter a cab. He walked her down to the very pace where she entered a cab to go home.

However, on the day of their meeting Susan was very excited to see Arthur again and Arthur on the other hand was anxious not to mess things up, Susan arrived an hour to the agreed time because of how excited she was to meet with him.

It was a hot day Susan waited for extra thirty minutes, while she was waiting she had the thought that maybe he wouldn't be coming since he don't know her in person and that they met on social media, knowing how scams and fake people are in social media. Just as she was thinking, Arthur walked in and spoke with a low masculine tone in perfectly nuanced English and greets her. Just as he was seated he started asking for forgiveness for coming late and Susan said you are forgiven. For the fact that Arthur apologized made her feel special. While they were discussing and laughing, Susan was lossed in thought from his cold but gentlemanly demeanor saw the sky wrapping her with a magnificence that her mind could not describe

. They were still unable to maintain eye contact and at this point Arthur understood that the feeling was a mutual one. Now what is going on in Arthur's mind concerning his friendship with Susan and the strange feeling between them?
