“This story was related to The First Night Out @ R.S.V.P.; however I think it’s special enough to be separated.”
Every girl dreams a wonderful gift on Valentine’s Day, and so do I. Even in Sheffield, no boy friend, I still was expecting a surprise.
On lecture, Sachin asked me out at night, and I accepted it with pleasure. After lecture, he insisted to accompany me back to Unite, where I stayed. Unite was only 5-minute walking distance from the management hall. On the way I could feel he would like to tell me something but we just kept silence. I found him carried a bag which was quite unusual. I seldom saw him carried anything like that. He normally walked in the lecturing hall with piece of papers and a pen at hand. “What is inside?” “Would it be something for me?” I wondered.
“Here is Unite.”
I stopped in front of the reception and gave him a hint to leave.
“This is for you. Happy Valentine’s Day!”
He suddenly opened his bag and took out two well-packaged chocolates.
“Well, thank you.”
I was so surprised. This guy seemed to have an unknown power to see through my minds. But why now? It was 13th of March, one month after Valentine’s Day.
“I should have given these to you on 14th of February, but I was afraid that you would reject. I’ve carried them with me since then, seeking a good chance .I think it’s a perfect timing now. ”
“Thanks, and see you tonight.” I said.
“I got my Valentine’s chocolate!” I yelled to Kim.
“Valentine’s chocolates ? Who gives you? Is that Indian guy?” She asked.
“Yes, and guess what? I will go out with him tonight.” I said.
I carefully unwrapped the packaging papers after returning my room. I starred at those chocolates as if they were Picasso’s masterpieces.
I don’t have sweet teeth, but I do have a sweet guy coming in my life.
