Annabelle
I saw Lucas from my peripheral view moving to the door after my Dad told him to show me around he opened the door and motioned for me to come out first after you he said
I went to give my Dad I perk on his cheeks good bye Dad see you later I went out and Lucas followed behind with one hand at his back and another at his side
are you not supposed to show me around why are you behind me and not saying anything sorry ma'am, sorry miss Annabelle
You know you can just call me Anna or even Belle I wouldn't mind, am sorry but I can't call you that since you are my boss
and I your boss is telling you to call me that so please call me Anna, am really sorry miss but I can not do that. alright I can understand
I was really desperate to here him call me Anna but I guess he's too polite to call me that, it's okay I know I would get him to call me Anna soon
So tell me about yourself, am sorry ma'am but there's nothin interesting to tell , Do you hate me
far from it miss I can never hate you, so why are you telling me there's nothing interesting to tell
Am sorry if I offended you by saying that but there's nothing interesting really, am just a normal guy working on your father's farms that's all he said
No family I asked, I have my grandma she's the only one from my family I know even though there are others but I've not really met them
how about your favorite food, favorite color and other stuff, ma'am are you sure you want to know about that because I do not want to bore you with that I stopped abruptly and he bumped into me from the back
I almost fell down but he held me from falling and I used that opportunity to hug him pretending to be a little shaken from him bumping into me. am never like this so why am I being this way with him
He released me from his hold am so sorry ma'am I didn't mean to, stop apologizing mon roi ( my king) it's not your fault.
I don't understand what you just called me he said , oh do not worry about that it's nothing, we stood there gazing at each other awkwardly
You look really pretty he said trying to break the awkward moment, really thank you so much I really appreciate and yes am really thankful that he noticed my dressing that means I need to make sure all my clothes are on point each time I dress because of him I need to dress to impress him
I tried to hold his hands but he moved back making me embarrassed am really sorry I said. it's ..... nothing he said
so what's the next stop we are currently where the wine is being made and everywhere is almost empty am not sure if we are early or the workers are late
where are the workers I asked him, ooh they're not yet in. ohk that explains why everywhere is quite, what time do you guys start work
it depends on the season ma'am not one who likes to talk much I guess I asked him because I don't understand why he's giving me straight forward answers
Not really there's nothing really for us to talk about, do I make you uncomfortable?? no ma'am
there he goes again calling me ma'am
Can you stop that please , stop what ma'am ooh God it's okay. So how long have you been working for my Dad
just a few years ma'am, okay can you take me to the stables I want to see the horses, alright miss
Wow that white horse looks beautiful there are other horses in different colors black, brown and different sizes but the white one caught my attention,I hope you know how to ride cus I am not really good at riding horses
what's the name of the white horse, it's beautiful with green eyes I guess am now a sucker for green eyes, Annabelle ma'am, you mean my parents named the horse after me hahaha I laughed and they never told me about it , well I guess I need to thank them because am already in love with it.
You need to teach me how to ride the horse so we have to take Just the white one , let me help you get on it , are you not getting on it first ,ooh no you have to sit on it alone miss , hell no this guy is not going to spoil my plans
who said I do not know how to ride a horse I just want to get closer to him, if you are not getting on it with me then am not riding it alone what if I fall down
I saw him sighing then he said, miss if I should get unto the horse with you we will be in close proximity with each other and it's not right
well let me worry about that am the boss aren't I, get on the horse so that I can also sit on it , after he got on the horse he helped me to sit on it and I pretended to be afraid so I held onto him very tight and I felt him stiffen
the horse was moving slowing so I told him to go faster and he did after some time I felt him relax a little under my touch so I released him from my hold and lifted my hands enjoying the cool breeze and it felt amazing
we can back to the stables after a little while of riding the horse, wow that was great thank you
I don't remember the last time I had this much fun, really thank you so much I said smiling can we be friends I extended my hands for a handshake
I taught you said you didn't know how to ride a horse , but it doesn't seem like it why did you have to lie about it , I saw how you deliberately clung unto me when you pretended to fall when I bumped into you, am sorry ma'am but I do not like it when women throw themselves at me he said with a frown on his face
oh my God I was so embarrassed he didn't even accept my handshake he left my hands hanging it the air and went to put the horse back in the stables
I left there embarrassed and I had to run to get to the house my mom called me to have lunch with them but I told her I wasn't hungry she was following me but I heard Dad telling her to let me because he believes I must be tired from walking around all morning
upon getting to my room I threw myself on the bed and started weeping, I've never been so humiliated in my life like this before and to think this is the first time am trying go get a guys attention
I really like him, he's gentle and so kind I didn't think he will call me a loose woman, am not cheap I only wanted to get to know him and also get him to like me and am sure there's nothing wrong with that
