At night, I was busy doing my project when suddenly an unknown number called me. I answered the call and I heard a guy voice. I asked "who is this?" With a naughty voice he told "it's me!!" I was so fed up until I want to hang up the phone. I repeated the question again and when I told him that I will hang up the phone, he finally told me that he is Mbappe. I automatically stopped whatever I am doing and sit up straight. I can't believed he called me on the same day I gave my phone number to him. He asked me to have a dinner with him!!! I am so surprised!!! I said 'yes' with a stuttering voice. He told me that he will fetch me in 15 minutes time. After hanging up the phone, I rushed to the wardrobe to find my outfit that I'm going to wear for dinner. "Shirt, blouse or dress?" I'm trying to decide what should I wear. I am so indecisive. I don't know what popped up my mind when in few seconds time I picked out a long sleeve black dress. I matched my outfit with a white high heels and white chain bag.
15 minutes have passed and he have arrived. I came out from my house and approached him. He was so surprised to see me. "Why are you staring at me. Isn't it appropriate? Should I change??" I'm became to be insecure about my outfit. "It looks AMAZING!! You look fabulous.." Oh well, to be honest, he was very sweet to me. All I can do is just smile at him. We took a taxi to go to the venue of our dinner. Since he does not have a license, which I do not even care about it. The whole journey in the taxi was good. We laugh, teasing each other and all. Ahhh I really hope this doesn't end. But unfortunately, we have arrived at the destination. He brought me at a fancy restaurant near Eiffel tower. Isn't it romantic!!? This is as if I'm having a date with him. But nope, we were just friends, as for now.
We had our dinner peacefully even though I do noticed that people were staring at us. We were chatting among ourself, about my life, his life.
"This is not my home country. I'm from an Asian country, Singapore. I stayed in Paris since January, taking my Master certificate as a Fashion designer at IFA Paris." I explained about myself to him.
"Wow! Singapore!! I've always wanted to go there. So it's been 9 months you're in Paris. How's Paris?" Kylian asked.
"Kylian, to be frank, I have never explore Paris. For this 9 months, I only go to my college, cafe, dance studio and supermarket on the weekends. This is like my routine already."
He smiled at me and replied "Well, if you're ok, I can be your tour guide in Paris. I will bring you to the best place in Paris, the beautiful place in Paris."
Oh wow, that does not what I expect him to answer. I smiled as a form of I would love to. We continue eating and keep smiling at each other. This started to feel a bit awkward. After finished eating, he started to break out the silence.
"Bella, I asked you to have dinner with me because I wanted to give you something." He took out an envelope from his pocket and gave it to me. A lot of questions were in my mind. Without hesitation, I opened the envelope. "What is this?" I am so blur looking at a piece of paper with a Paris Saint-Germain logo at the top right hand corner. "It's a VIP ticket for you to watch my match tomorrow night." He explained with a relaxed tone. SHUT UP!!! THERE IS NO WAY THAT THIS IS TRUE!!! I stared at the ticket for a few seconds until Kylian called my name multiple times. I gave him a smile with an expression of disbelief. I thank him for this many time. He keep laughing at me. I feel so embarrassed at my reaction. We started to make a long eye contact with each other. OMG please don't tell me I've started to fall in love with him. We stared at each other eyes for quite a while. His deep black eyeball really making me melting. However, that moment got cut off by a phone ring. It was Steph. Ughh Steph, seriously!!
"Where the heck have you been!! I knocked your house multiple times. Where are you!!" Steph was super angry. She knew that I will be always be at home.
"Uhh I will be there in 15 minutes. Ok bye see you later." I hurriedly disconnected the phone and told Kylian that I need to go home now. "You sure you do not want me to send you home?" Asked Kylian. I give a fast respond to him with a 'no thank you'. I know he was sad about it but I have no choice. If Steph knew that I went out with Kylian, she will be talking and talking non-stop.
I was searching for a taxi and when I found one, I immediately went in. Just a few seconds before I went in, he shouted "Don't forget tomorrow at 9pm."I ignored him and shut the door. I feel so bad for him. I did not text him. I just let it be. I don't know what was I thinking. At the moment, I was just thinking of Steph. I'm sorry Kylian. I shouldn't have done that to you.
