I think I've Fallen

For a single lady, like me whose single for years I lost count, being the subject of kindness by the opposite sex is overwhelming. I deeply thought when's the last time I was in the relationship with someone. Then, I recalled it was when I was in eleventh grade. Such a twisted relationship it was.

His name, Drew, he loved me deeply at that time. He showered me with love. He's like a puppy and followed me everywhere I go, at first its good that someone paid so much attention to me. But as time goes by, its annoyed me, my friends teased me a lot. It's not like we will get married right away after graduation for him showed me so much love like that. I've set my dreams high and I'm sure to achieve it.

Drew would wait me on the exact same spot and we will went to school together, He'll come to my class once the bell rang for lunch break. Or he even would drive me untill I safely arrived at home. He talked to me on the phone for hours while I'm at home, the gesture I appreciate at first but somehow its got to my nerve and I stopped him to not call me almost everyday. It's quite bothersome. So after the long consideration I came up with the best solution for Drew & me, it is to ended our 3 short months relationship.

I need to end this relationship quickly, I thought. Or else I might gone mad!.

Its bored me to the point I don't see Drew charming anymore, which at first I'm quite taken with Drew good looks and kind nature, he's the class leader tho!

I told Drew about ended our relationship and he was speechless, he begged me not to but at the very least he respected my decision. Since then I intentionally avoid Drew untill graduation and we went separate ways untill now. I never try to check on him via social media.

Ahh, what a reminiscence!

Kevin, stirred something in me, a feeling I suppressed so long. My inner thought debated is he really that kind or it is just merely an act of kindness for the new hire. Because I checked on him, he's sure really kind to everyone. But somehow, he's kindness to me seems a bit overboard. And there's a time when he oddly talked to me, I can't understand behind the meaning of it.

That time when I need the office wifi password, I ask him the tech guy whereabout. But he ignored me and keep working with his laptop.

"Kev, do you perhaps see where Liam is?" I asked him that time.

There's no answer, but I'm very sure he heard me loud and clear.

"Kev??"

"No. what do you need him for?" He scowled.

"I need wifi password for my phone. I think he might know."

He sighed.

(It's the first time I saw him sighing)

"I know the password, why didn't you ask me?" He stared into my eyes seriously, there's no hint of he's joking.

Huhhhh???.... Weird question! What's going on right now???

I answered honestly, "Well, I don't suspect you would know it."

"Give me your phone, I'll setup the wifi for you." He replied me. I obediently give my phone and he setup the wifi.

"Thank you," I mouthed and smiled at him.

He's not scowled anymore, "Next time, you can ask me first. Maybe I can help you."

"Okay, Will be!" I assured him that time and leave his office with weird feeling.

Is he jealous? No...no...no... that's not the cause.

And yesterday when I talked & joked around with Henry (he's from warehouse team) while waiting the elevator, Kevin strode out from the elevator. He seems shocked to see us.

"Ahh Kevin, we are just want to head home. Do you forget something at your office?" Henry said politely.

"No, I came for Louisa." then turned towards me, "When have you been today? I just want to head home, wanna ride with me?" .

Huh?!?... He came all the way from downstairs just to find me and get me a ride home?

I'm surprised by his bluntness, Henry seems surprised too with Kevin. I stared at Kevin try to diggesting he's answer. Henry excuses himself and taking the elevator himself and leave us alone.

"Uhm, I'm stuck in the all day meeting with Henry and team. We discussed some ground rule for warehousing."

"Oh, that's why I don't see you today."

He frowned at me and said, "What are you talking with him just when I came? You seems happy."

Heyyy what's going on? I feel like I'm being interviewed.

"Just some jokes, He's good at joking."

"I'm relived then. I thought something going on between you and Henry."

Badump...badump...

My heart thumping with his sudden shocking bluntness. He's jealous, I knew it. I suspected it, not that I'm so overly confident but there's so much proves. But did he really fall for me? We just know each other for 6 months.

The last 6 months, he's so kind to me. Even though his busy with his workload, He managed to come to my office almost everyday just to a quick talk or jokes. Everyday I've been waiting in my office when he'll come and we can have those quick talk. It's just when he's around, I'm happier.

I worried. It seems I've fallen for his kindness. This weird feeling that keep my heart thumping always coming when he's around.
