A day to Remember....


I poured myself a drink and gazed out of the window to see if I could  get a glimpse of the man . I wondered how long he had been staying across the street from me since I just recently moved here? I pretended taking the trash out to the recycling bin just to see if I could see him, but no view of him. I went back inside and poured another drink and thought about the man that lived abroad occupied my mind.
 The following  morning there was a knock at the door. It was the very man that lived across the streets that appeared.  I became nervous as I couldn't believe my eyes as he spoke with grace by greeting me saying  "good morning ". He said  '' I am Micheal the police officer that lived in the neighborhood ''  l then  replied. " I'm Candence I just recently moved into the neighborhood, as I was walking my dog I seen some usual activities going on in your house that caught my attention. I'm so sorry for intruding on your property'', she said , as he turned and walked away.
.
I told Kayla my best friend all what transpired between me and the police officer the next day while riding in her  Lexus convertible car . She ( Kayla) just laughed and responded ''Did you assume the position ?''. We both chuckled.
Upon arriving back  home I noticed a bouquets of flowers at my front door. I thought they had the wrong address but the card read '' Candence, I'm sorry for making you feel uncomfortable yesterday. I would like to make it up to you by taking you out for dinner ''
 As I raised my head up I could see Micheal starring at me . I nodded ''yes'',  and he held up his seven fingers which indicated Seven O'clock.

 In the evening I wore one of my favorite short mini dress that revealed too much of everything a man could imagine.We arrived at one of the most famous Italian Restaurants in the city,  had a lovely dinner and went for a long walk along the beach afterward. He told me '' I have just recently divorced and was looking for a friend with no strings attached  ''.
 I felt warm inside for it had been a long time since I've been in the company of a man. I started sweating and felt nervous. He gently wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close, and said  ''don't worry''.

When I arrived back home I took a long hot bath.I thought about the lovely evening we had . I poured myself a drink and stood by the window. I was caught up in the moment wondering why he didn't attempt to kiss me for I long to be kissed and touched by him. The moon was full and the brightness from it shone over my Villa.  I suddenly closed my blinds and turned on some jazz music when I heard a knock at the front door. It was Micheal .
I was standing in the doorway half dressed, Micheal gazed down at me. I invited him in for a drink. I then felt shy because I wanted that kiss from earlier. Micheal stated: "I can't stay long , did I catch you at a bad time? ''. I  replied "I hope you can stay for at least one drink with me ?'',  he humbly accepted .

The pleasant smell of aroma from the coffee eased my fears as I suddenly woke up from sleep seeing a strange man in my room . Then I recollected what happened the previous night , it was Michael who was around and made the breakfast.
 Micheal  said  " breakfast is ready". I prepared myself for the obvious statement that Micheal will make this morning, for he had already informed me that he wanted just a friend. As I entered the kitchen with the biggest smile on his face . Micheal replied " Hey Love ! I really had a nice time last night. " He then walked over to me and gave that special kiss I long for.  Unfortunately I didn't remember last night but glad that he did. I felt ashamed and awkward. I shouted ..".Get Out..!!" Micheal was baffled and left suddenly.

After I calm down and thought to myself  " girl what's wrong with you ,isn't this what you said you wanted." I smiled to myself like a detrange person that couldn't remember whether he was good in bed or not? I felt bad because he was so kind and gentle and the way he kissed me ( awesome ) tingling inside as I think of it now.  I decided to walk over to his house and apologize.
Micheal anwered his door and replied  " what do you want Candence?'', I replied  " I hope you can forgive me . I am truly sorry . let me make it up  with you please !''. Micheal hesitated for a moment before nodding ''okay''.  He  then invited me inside. I explained to him it's been a very long time since I had a real relationship and that I wanted more than just friendship. Micheal smiled but didn't say nothing. As I went on and on telling him my life story . He just listened and  never responded. I went to exit when Micheal grab my arm pulled me close , kissed  me passionately and stated  "I would love to give it a try with you Candence for it's been a long time for me also. Lets start it off right this time'' .
We dated for a period of nine months before Micheal proposed to me. It was the most excited beautiful thing I heard.



It was a June wedding with lots of family and friends. Many came from all over the world to see the beautiful  wedding gown my mother had tailored made with real diamonds sewn into it.   The veil was laced in gold dust . This was the only time I realized that so many people loved me so much.
As Micheal stood at the alter watching his bride- to- be . He could hardly compose himself.
Many wept with tears of joy as the Pastor pronounced us husband and wife .  We went off to an Exoctic Island for our  honeymoon .We were happy and had three beautiful children. I never felt love from a man like this before. My Husband , My Lover and My best friend all wrap up into one beautiful person (Micheal )....
