Chapter 1 Love On The Train 1

  • It was a very stressful day at work. It seemed like I had lost almost all the energy I had.
  • It was almost time to close, I approached the fridge in my office to get a very cold energy drink. I really needed it to gain a little bit of strength I'll need to get back home.
  • "Ahhh! This is refreshing!" I said to myself with a little smile on my face. I couldn't wait to get back home; eat, shower and have a very long nap. The next day was a Saturday — no work during weekends.
  • "It's five o'clock already — Thank God!" I said joyfully. Though I couldn't smile much because I lacked sufficient strength — I did not want to smile away the little energy I had gotten from the energy drink I took a while ago.
  • My belongings were already packed. Then, I quickly rushed to the train station. I couldn't imagine missing the train, I was sure I would faint if I had to wait for the next one.
  • As fast as Barry Allen, I got to the train station. It took about 15 minutes until the train arrived.
  • "My baby!" I jokingly screamed in my thought as the train approached me.
  • As the train stopped, I quickly got in and sat by the window — I'd always loved it.
  • "Oh my..." I thought to myself as I looked at the man that sat opposite me. He was so handsome and good looking. He wore a black jean and a black jacket. He was so focused on his phone that he didn't even notice I was constantly looking at him.
  • "I haven't been in a relationship for a long time..." I thought. "Why did that suddenly pop in my mind? Stay calm Emily."
  • I just brought out my phone and airpods from my ugly brown bag. Plugged the airpods into my ear and played my favourite RnB song. Just so you know, I had always had the dream of becoming a singer, receiving awards, having millions of followers on my social media handles and a lot more. But, I ended up working as a clerk at a very old company in an old building.
  • While listening to the song, I was just looking at the window, lost in my thoughts of receiving the Grammy's award. My friend Stacey would usually call me; "Delusional."
  • I felt a tap on my arm. It was Mr Handsome. I took a long confused look at him that he had to give me a sign to remove my airpods so I could hear him.
  • "Oh shit!" I said in a low tone. "I'm... I'm... I'm sorry. I was lost in the song."
  • "It's okay." he said in a deep tone.
  • "I love men with deep voices... Oh my..." I thought to myself.
  • "Sorry to disturb you, I just wanted to ask if you ever attended Eagles High School..." Mr Handsome said.
  • "...Yeah... Wait, did you also attend Eagles High School?" I asked in a very curious manner.
  • "Yes I did. I just felt like I'd seen you before." He chuckled. "Nice to meet you, I'm Edward."
  • "I'm Emily... But you can call me Emy." I extended my hands for a handshake.
  • We awkwardly handshaked for a long time. Seemed like we were lost in each other's sight. I had to come back to my senses and withdrew from the handshake.
  • Edward was so fun to chat with. We had a very long discussion ranging from music to politics (I was never interested in politics but... well anything for Mr Handsome.).
  • To my surprise the energy I taught I didn't have appeared from nowhere. I even prayed for the train to slow down a little.
  • "Oh... I'm getting close to my stop. We can exchange contacts." I said.
  • "Sure Emily. I can't loose you." He replied while putting his contact in my phone while I put mine in his.
  • "Hmmm..." I murmured to myself.
  • My destination reached, I gave Edward a soft hand shake with a sexy look and left the train. I gave him that sexy call me look. It had been a long while since I made such connection with a man.
  • My last relationship was a mess. I was with this guy for three years, only to find out that he was having a deep affair with my cousin. Till date, I haven't spoken to my cousin. I vowed that I wouldn't talk to her anymore, no matter what. My sister had tried to reconcile us back but it couldn't happen. I also overheard that they had broken up.
  • I finally reached home. My mind was filled with Edward! Edward!! Edward!!!
  • "Can I stop this and focus?" I said in laughter.
  • All of a sudden, that weakness I had came back. My stomach started growling. I rushed to the kitchen and microwaved the little rice and tomato sauce I prepared before leaving for work in the morning.
  • After a few minutes, the microwave beeped. I quickly opened the microwave and carried the plate out, forgetting to put on my kitchen gloves. What happened next? The whole food was on the floor. I couldn't withstand the hotness of the plate.
  • "Oh!!!!!!! What kind of thing is this?" I screamed in frustration and a little anger.
  • I just sat on the floor and ate the rice and sauce from the floor. It was crazy though.
  • I was done eating, then I cleaned up the kitchen, went straight to the bathroom and had a shower. While showering, I was just thinking about Edward. His smile, laughter deep voice and style. Well, I became horny.
  • After shower, I came out of the bathroom with my white soft towel on my body. I imagine Edward on the bed waiting for me to get on him and ride the hell out of him.
  • "Emily! Are you crazy?" I thought to myself while gently caressing my laps.
  • I wore my nighties, picked up my phone and laid on my soft bed covered with a clean bedsheet.
  • "Should I call him?" I thought. "No, he should be the one to call me. I'll wait."
  • While waiting, I dosed off. I fell into a deep sleep. It felt like I was dead!
