Chapter 18: 18 - He likes me
Sarah POV
I felt sad for my boss, he lost his wife in a car accident and he must be very sad.
I decided to go check on him and saw how he was doing.
I arrived at his house and it's breathtaking, it has a nice view.
I knocked the door and waited for someone to open. My boss opened the door and welcomed me in.
He looked tired and exhausted as well.
We talked a little bit and I saw Mr Benson coming towards us and he was holding a glass of wine in his hands.
After Ethan left, we were smiling and looking at each other.
He asked me if he could talk with me. I said okay and the next thing he said really shocked me.
"I like you and I want to marry you."
Oh my god this guy was straight forward and he looked serious. I didn't know how to respond.
He introduced himself and asked me to be his wife. I still didn't answer and I heard him calling me.
I came back to my sense and I told him I would think about it.
After I came back home I was thinking a lot I didn't even hear Emma was talking to me.
"Sarah what are you thinking so seriously that you can't hear me?"
"Emma, David asked me to marry him....."
She was not saying anything and she was looking at me like she has seen a ghost.
"What do I do Emma? he asked me to give him answers."
"What did you say to him?" Emma asked.
"I told him I need to think about it."
"Oh my god Sarah Anderson!!! what's wrong with you? call him and say yes!!!"
"Whaaat??!! Emma are you serious? This is not a joke marriage, also not something to play with, I am not even r........" she cut me off.
Emma POV
I can't believe this girl is so dump, how can she not say yes to him?
The guy actually likes her and wants to marry her.
I said to her, "listen my dear Sarah when a guy likes you and wants to marry you, he is very serious about you."
I asked her, "do you like him?"
"I like him."
"See? you like him as well, give him a chance please."
"I am scared Emma, what if he is a bad guy? what if he beat me and kill me and....."
"Calm down Sarah, don't think bad about him without even knowing how he is, he took you to his house and he didn't do anything to you, right?"
"Yes that is true. I should give him a chance. I don't think he is a bad guy."
"See? call him dear."
Sarah POV
After I talked with Emma I felt a bit relax.
"I should give him a chance, okay Emma I will give him a chance."
"That's my girl." Emma said smiling like a fool.
I said to Emma, "let's watch a movie and make cookies."
"I am in." Emma said.
Then we watched a movie and laughed and made comments.
When we were done watching, we decided to make cookies. After 2 hours we finished everything and ate dinner.
It was very late and I was tired so I decided to sleep.
The next morning I woke up feeling happy. It was my off day. I went downstairs to make breakfast. When I was done, Emma came to have breakfast as well. When I was done having breakfast fast, I asked Emma if we can go for shopping and she said it's fine.
We cleaned the house and showered.
We went for shopping and bought what we wanted.
After shopping we went for lunch at a restaurant and had our food.
We went back home after lunch. Emma chatting like always and I was smiling and nodded at her chatting story, I answered time to time.
I am so glad I have Emma as my friend. I know sometimes she drives me crazy but I am happy I have her in my life.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
