Book:Found Published:2024-5-28

When I get to know him, I can say that Andrew is okay. Yes, I am calling him Andrew now and not Mr. Snob because I have seen that he is not really a snob person, maybe he just look like that if you don’t know him.
We have been spending time with each other this past weeks because of the driving lesson. I got to know him better because of that.
He is very patient in teaching me, I having a hard time to park the car. That’s my only problem, I am close to perfection with my driving skills. I am not worried with the written exam because I know that I will do well.
Also, Andrew and I became text-mate and call-mate. Sometime we talked about the driving lesson we had but in the later part we change our topic like about our love life. Yes I am that thick face to asked him that.
And I was shocked when I found out that he is a NGSB meaning “No Girlfriend Since Birth.” I really can’t believe because he is so freaking handsome. Any girls would loved to be her girlfriend.
I suddenly want to ask if he is gay or something. But when I asked Lance he said no, he is just too picky and he was so in love with cars that is why he has not time for girls.
Well if you think about it not all handsome man and beautiful woman is taken. Like me, I am also a NBSB. Which make me think that maybe we are meant to be. As what in the accounting have said, “never assumed unless otherwise stated.”
Andrew will fetch me today. This will be my last day of work and my last day in my driving lesson with him.
I felt sad but its okay. I just didn’t expect that I will enjoy his company because my first impression to him was he is snob and has no PR in his body.
But I really like talking to him. I like talking to smart people because I learned a lot.
I also want him to learn something and that is to enjoy life despite of busy schedule.
Well I am also a workaholic person but I am always see to it that I am still enjoying what I do. And that is what I want him to learn.
I came back to reality when I noticed his car in fornt of me. Andrew already arrived. I gave him a smile.
He went out of his car just to open the door for me. He is really a gentleman.
“How was your day?” He asked.
“Good. I already did a turnover.” I answered.
“Oh so you already have a replacement? That’s good then.”
“Yes so far she’s okay. I just hope that she really is. I’m worried about my clients. I just hope she can handle it well.” I honestly said.
I am really attached when it comes to my clients. If I were to decide, I will really want to resign from my work. But my clients was the reason why I am staying there. They are so nice to me.
“You seem more attached to your clients.” He noticed.
“Yes because I like working with them than the people in the office.” I said.
I heard him chuckled. Well that is one of his improvements, he can now smile and laughed.
I even tease him if he finds me a clown because he always laughed when we are together.
Sometimes I don’t know if I will be happy or not because I make him laugh.
We have arrived at Andrew’s driving school and I am currently driving. And guess what I’m okay with everything, except this one … Parking.
I focused and started to park. I slowed down and thought of the right time, right cycle, back and forth. My eyes widened as I did with just one try. I immediately got out and jumped outside. Finally I made him.
Andrew also came out. And because of too much happiness I went to him and hugged him. We were both surprised by what I did but he recovered fast and answered my hug.
It didn’t take long because I also remove from the hug immediately.
“Thank you Andrew.” I sincerely said.
“Welcome. After all the bumps and scratches you finally made it.” He said teasingly.
Oh another improvement. He can now joke around.
“Sorry. I just really find it too hard but at least now I already did it.” I said a bit embarrassed.
“Want to try it again?” He asked.
I smiled at him and nodded. I tried it for three more times and I did it perfectly. It only means one thing.
“You are now ready for an actual driving exam.” Andrew said with a smile on his face.
I also smiled at him but mixed with sadness. It means that we will never meet again. I can’t talk to him much because there is no reason to talk to him.
I finished the actual driving exam and of course as expected I passed, its not surprising because my teacher is good. But it also means that the happy bonding between the two of us is over.
But because I want to still bond with him more, I ask him to help to choose a car that my parents will buy for me. And as expected, he agreed.
We are together now in his shop. Their sales agent showed us the best seller cars for girls. Apart from the fact that I didn’t understand anything she said because she’s busy flirting with Andrew, I didn’t like much of what she was showing us. The car looks too small, and too pink.
“What do you think?” Andrew asked me.
I shook my head.
“It looks too girly and small. Isn’t that kind of car is easily stopped when there is a flood?” I commented.
I saw the sales agent frowned. It is so obvious that she is trying to impress Andrew. Like hello?! I’m the client here and not Andrew!
“What do you prefer?” Andrew asked.
I thought of what I really want.
“I like big cars especially those who I can drive even if there is flood, you know here in the Philippines it often floods. Also, I wanted to have a big compartment for my things. I will start to work with Vince soon.” I explained.
“Vince as in Vince Conscio?” The sales agent butt-in. She looks giddy with what she heard.
“Yes.” I just said.
I wanted to rolled my eyes because she is pissing me off.
“Wow Ma’am you are so lucky!” She butt-in again.
She is getting into my nerve. She acts like as if we are close, not to mention the way she flirts with Andrew. If I were your boss I will give you a warning.
“You want us to switch places?!” I hissed.
“Easy.” Andrew said while he put his arm around me and guided me to the other area.
“I am really pissed with her. She’s so flirt. I am the client here and not you.” I said still pissed.
“Woah! Jealous?” He teased me.
“Of course not! Love is not jealous!” I was shocked with my answer.
I immediately slapped my mouth several times.
I saw him grin. “So you love me?”
“You are so cocky! Of course not. Its just that jealousy is not on my vocabulary.” I said instead.
Its true! I like him but I don’t love him yet.
Wait so it means that my feelings can turn into love? Oh no Alli that’s dangerous!
