It was the day of the blind date, which was arranged by Mr. Winters.
Although Gerald did not know what to expect of the outcome, he still took the effort to do some preparations since he had given his promise to Mr. Winters. He decided to head to Domino’s earlier.
But something happened unexpectedly.
He spotted a girl sitting alone and drinking coke. There were chicken wings and French fries on her table. At that moment, she was swinging her fair legs, and it seemed like she was waiting for someone.
‘Could it be her?’
Gerald thought to himself.
The girl then put down her fries. She was munching while typing on the phone.
Just at that moment, Gerald received a text message too. It was from Michelle.
“Are you here yet?”
Again, Gerald thought to himself: ‘As expected, it is that girl.’
On first impressions, she was quite pretty.
So Gerald went ahead and slid into the seat opposite her.
“What… are you doing?” That girl was clearly shocked.
She looked at Gerald in a daze.
“Are you here for a blind date?” Gerald asked her.
“What blind date? Are you out of your mind?” The girl stared at Gerald, her eyes frozen with fear.
“Eh? Wait, you’re not Michelle? But didn’t you send a text message to me just now?” Gerald was stupefied.
“I don’t know who Michelle is. I was sending a Line message to my boyfriend. Do you understand?” The girl replied in a shrill tone.
“Oh, I’m so sorry. I made a mistake!”
Gerald stood up in awkwardness.
‘D*mn it! If I knew earlier, I would have called first.’ He cringed.
As he was about to call Michelle, suddenly someone tapped him on his shoulders lightly.
He turned around and was stunned to see another gorgeous girl in front of him.
She blinked her large eyes and looked right into Gerald’s.
Gerald sat across from Xabrina.
Gerald only needed to take a few glances at Xabrina to know that she was probably an empty flower pot—pretty on the outside, but nothing more than that.
