I sat on a chair, with my face planted in my hands and elbows on my lap. A pose of acute desperation. I only had my leather pants on. Now I did resemble these show biz people here on an audition.

I dug my face more into my hands trying to hide my embarrassment. Don't get me wrong...

I know I have a fantastically perfectly proportioned body; my ex-girlfriend's words, not mine. But believe me when you are being starred by many… of both genders I might add… I tend to become mortified and red in face. I don't know about anyone else.

I groaned loudly completely embarrassed and thought what my mother would say if she sees me semi naked like this… in a strip club??!!??

There were workers and bartenders… not to mention the people being auditioned, glancing at me. I already have a dozen phone numbers again by both genders. And not for work related advice... No....

But I was scared to offend them… unless of course… the people here forget all civility and jump on me. Which I hope doesn’t happen…

Because then I would be haunting my betraying friends for their whole life…

When a girl first came to me to give her number, I started to refuse but she dug her claws on my biceps… feeling them better… that… that… I swear I shuddered. The hair on my hands stood up…

Some women are scary… Really??!!??

Ask any sensible man…

Of course, I would never accept it to others but I was damn scared of that woman. Today, I have seen the show biz business…

Both good (the people that I meet at the bar) and bad (the girl who dug her big nails in me). I swear… I am going to get my friends for today!!!

This is the worst day of my life. I wish my client would come and see me like this and reject us. I started praying to the god for a miracle.

Please… please… please… I started praying…

Show me a sign that you are there.....

"Excuse me, I am from Night Hill. I am delivering food for a....Miss Kera??"

Such a nice voice, just like a nightingale... So sweet... Which can't belong to this world.... Does that mean a Goddess has heard my prayers!!??!!!!!!

I snapped in the direction where the sweet voice flowed to me like petals of a sakura tree drifts in the wind.

And then I saw her......

And couldn't stop seeing....

Everything, everyone came to a standstill...

Ohh Damnnnnn!! This lady... definitely was a Goddess…

If I thought her voice was good, she looked... I don't have words... she looked GLORIOUS... BEAUTIFUL...OH SO SWEET....

I couldn't take my eyes off her...

She was standing next to a guy, smiling politely. "Please I am in a hurry. If you could please take me to Miss Kera...." She stopped and smiled brightly, "I would truly be grateful."

Woww…

Her smile was as glorious as a sun rise in all its beauty… I had to hold my hand over my eyes since her smile was sooooo bright. It literally lit up the whole room.

"Uh..uh.. Miss? Actually, Miss Kera has gone into the stage... She will take some time.. uh... You know change and..." The guy, merely a boy blushed beet red while talking to her, "I could help you if you want??" He asked hurriedly.

Well, well, help ha?!? Is this what the kids are using nowadays? To hang out with ladies… or in this case this beautiful Goddess… How long ago had I used such catch phase? Like forever... It's been a lifetime, since I left the dating scene.

"It’s okk, I can wait. You would have lot of work to do. Can you show me where I can sit??" She looked up and blinked her eyes at him.

I glared at him.

I Dare this boy to try something...

I will break his arms right out of its socket.

I punched my fist over my other hand.

LET ME AT HIM... JUST A FEW SECONDS WILL BE ENOUGH… I WILL LEVEL HIM DOWN…

Grrrrr...

"Ye.. Yeah... Yeah. You can sit over there....", The boy suddenly turned and pointed to a seat next to me.

Huh… I must have misjudged him… the guy was cool…

As long as he keeps his hands to himself he will be fine…

"Ohh, ok", she replied and looked over to me.

"Do you need anything? Water.. Soda.. Coffee???" The guy asked like a puppy showering love over his master.

“Nah... I am good…" she told him turning her beautiful eyes away from me “Thank you so much for your help." She smiled that megawatt smile of hers.

Damn it… I wanted her eyes on me… always… Forever…

Then she turned. And set her eyes on me… walking towards the seats.

I blinked and my eyes became huge in horror.

Shit?!!? She… She is coming towards me… What will I say to her?!!???

Hi, my name is Adam. Please come to dinner with me tonight. Because I have our wedding scheduled tomorrow. It would be rude to wed without dating. Woman are huge on getting to know each other…

Oh, Shut Up??!! Crazy Brain of mine HAD to malfunction at this moment, hen I needed it the most…

This is a Life or Death Situation…

I was never good at the talking… Look my Brain haywired just at the thought of talking to a beautiful lady… ah… Goddess…

I groaned loudly and put my face in my hands again. I must look like an ostrich… hiding its head in sand!!!

"Excuse me... Uh.. Sir?? Are you all right??"

"Yeah… yeah… I am just fine.. Just nerves…" I spoke without thinking and lifted my head up. And immediately felt pale....

She was right above me, her eyes clouded with concern and worry... for me?? There was nothing… literally nothing… I can't handle given my training.

But still I couldn't bring myself to say… anything...

Even if it was worry, I loved that she was looking and talking to a guy like me. I had a great body but only woman, who wanted to date a bad boy or a macho motorcycle guy, came to me.

Girls like this… Classy Ladies… would never even come near my shadow. I was scary looking… And that is on my good days.

And this definitely was not a good day...

Definitely not...

Most definitely not…

Or Maybe… It was…

"Oh my.. You have gotten paler. Are you sure??" She asked again and laid her hands over my forehead to feel my temperature, “You don't have fever, right?"

She laid one hand on my forehead and other on my shoulders. I sagged more at her touch.

I felt a... I can't explain it... like a zing.. I guess.

She grew more frantic. "Oh god… you are really sick. I should call someone.... Or maybe a ambulance..." She looked around in concern, no doubt to look for someone to help.

"No wait", I held her hand which was on my shoulder, "I am fine. I just need a minute." I looked up to her and saw that she was really, really, really, concerned. It’s not like someone would be concerned for a stranger… Like she was now. It seemed… like she REALLY was a Goddess. Kind to all.

"I will be just fine. Don't worry." I held her hand, not wanting to let go of her and spoke in low tones. I don't want her to be afraid of me.

What will our children say, if their Mama is scared of their Papa??!! No can do!!! I can't have her afraid. I am supposed to protect her.

"But are you sure?" She hesitated. She looked like she was about to run over to someone, to drag me to a doctor. I laughed… And to tell you the truth… I had not felt this light for a long time. I looked over her.

She looked over me worriedly, still holding my hand. It felt like, I have at last found my Destiny...
