An Extraordinary Gentleman

She had been trying very hard not to admit it, but there was something about this new person that made her hair stand on it's ends whenever she was around him. Ever since their first encounter at his presentation, she would often get caught red handed by her peers giggling to herself  like a "no brain bimbo" for no reason at all. Perhaps she was too lost in her little fairytale, where she would immense herself being pampered and treated by this refined young lad. She had a weakness for men that wore shirts and had rolled up sleeves, and it so happened he fell in that category. One would think that a simple crush or so she portrayed it to be would be harmless, but if  a crush that lasted for 7 to 8 years would be bordering obsession and deep down inside she knew this all too well.

He came from a well to do family that lived in an area where the rich and wealthy called home. He was educated in one of the finest learning institutions and later had a spell abroad to gain further exposure in developing his already outstanding career. He was top of his class acing every examination and maintaining a 3.98 average over the years not to mention the way he gave his speeches was as if one was listening to a future democrat at a bi-election campaign for human rights. Clearly, he was head and shoulders above her previous crush and was far better in many ways. Ahhh..truly he was the man of every girl's dreams and she was one of them.

But she was afraid that a girl like her would never meet his expectations amidst the numerous drooling girls he had chasing at his feet. She did not have a face that would appear on the covers of top magazines nor possess a physique that would get her top modelling contract deals, everyday was a bad hair day and she was as clumsy as a drunk trying to juggle beer glasses when he was way over his limit.

However, during lunch one day, she was astonished to find out from a friend that he was indeed very easy going and would walk up to girls to introduce himself with a handshake. No wonder all the girls went crazy over him. There were several cases where girls would feel their legs turning soft as they melted away like butter on a hot pan whenever they were in his presence. Some girls on the other hand couldn't  even find themselves looking directly into his eyes for fear they would st udder to find the right words or be left dumbfounded when he greeted them.

All this new found information that she discovered was a bit overwhelming but it had brought her liking of him to an entirely new level. And she did what girls do best..just like what all girls do when they are unable to confront the man of their dreams.....She STALKED HIM.
