Lock You In My Heart

Gabrielle was dying to have dinner with Melissa. She was teeming with excitement.

Sharing a meal with her idol meant the world to her. She was without a doubt, fangirling.

“I would love to have dinner with you, Ms. Glyn. What time is your flight? I can see you off at the airport.” Hiding her excitement was particularly difficult for Gabrielle.

The closer she got to Melissa, the more approachable she found she was. In Gabrielle’s eyes, Melissa would never fail to ignite her excitement.

“It’s alright. Thank you. Jackson has booked me a chauffeur. I can leave from the hotel to the airport right away. I don’t want to cause you any trouble.” A gentle smile adorned Melissa’s beautiful face.

Going back and forth from the hotel to the airport took more than an hour. It would take 30 minutes more if something was delayed. Melissa did not want to waste Gabrielle’s precious time.

“I swear! It’s okay! I have nothing to do this afternoon anyway. I picked you up when you came so it’s just right that I drop you off.” Gabrielle looked at her with expecting eyes.

Melissa was touched by her sincerity. Gabrielle really gave warmth to everything she grazes.

“Alright then. It’s all up to you. I just hope that it wouldn’t take too much of your time. Come, let’s order. Tell me what you like and don’t like. I’ll help you pick.” Melissa took the menu in her hand and began to order.

“I’m allergic to seafood. Other than that, there’s nothing else I don’t eat.” Gabrielle’s insides were flooded with shame.

There was nothing she could do about her allergies.
