Valentines Day. Couples are one of the many reasons why I hate relationships. The public display of affection that couples do in public is just too gross. Like keep your tongue out of each other's throats please. Also today being the Valentine's Day, people will go crazy. Couples will be found making out anywhere and everywhere. I have never been very fond of couples. Because the last relationship that I was in, didn't end up well. I don't even want to have a relationship due to the fact that it always ends bad. Mom and Dad always used to fight with each other. After 27 years of successful marriage, they got divorced. It still breaks my heart to see them like this. Relationship make you weaker rather than stronger. They break your heart into millions of pieces and then leave you to suffer alone. It is so hard to go and live at mom and dad's place throughout the whole year. It's like changing countries every 6 months. I got tired of it and just moved to my grandmother's house. Grandmother is really sweet and she takes really good care of me. Even though she is also really sad that mom and dad got a divorce. I was hoping for today to be different. I wanted today to be like no other day I have ever encountered. I want today to be peaceful and calm. I don't want to hear mom and dad fight over the phone. Today I will take grandma to the movies and we will have fun. As I was going to get more groceries I saw a couple making out in the dairy products section. I tried to get past them and take out a gallon of milk but they were blocking my way. "Excuse me," I started but they didn't seem to hear me. "Excuse me?" I repeated but they didn't listen because they were too busy sucking each other's face. "Ugh! Excuse me," I said last time as I pulled them apart and took a gallon of milk. "What the heck?" The girl muttered as she pulled the guy towards him and started kissing him, hungrily. The guy looked at me for a second and winked. Ignoring him, I moved to other sections and took everything I needed. Just as I took everything I needed from the store, I headed towards the cashier to checkout. There was a long line. I saw many people buying different types of flowers and chocolates. After few minutes she called me up. She started scanning the items and I looked over my shoulder and saw a man talking to a women who was holding a baby. The man's face was structured nicely. His chiseled jaw was sharp making him look handsome. He had brown hair which were combed nicely and had green eyes with a hint of grey. He was quite tall and wore a three piece Armani suit. I didn't know since how long I was staring at him but he looked right at me and I had to look away. I was embarrassed. What would he think of me? I didn't even know him but something about him was attracting. He is a man and all they know what to do is to break hearts and leave you alone to suffer. When I turned to the cashier she gave me a look which I didn't understand. "59 pounds," she said as I took out my credit card and swiped it. "Thank you, have a lovely day," she said as she handed me all the bags. I took all of them and tried fitting all of them around my hands. I nodded and stepped out of the way. I looked back at the same guy and found him staring at me. I looked away and walked out of the store with all the bags which were blocking my view. I tried peeking from the side, trying to figure out how I will take these home. It started getting dark already and it was only 7:00 and it's also really cold. Ugh I forgot to bring my jacket. I walked further with all the groceries in my hand. Suddenly somebody bumped into me, causing the groceries to fall. "Shit," I muttered under my breath and started picking everything up. Suddenly someone bent down and started helping me. I looked up and saw the same man who was kissing a girl back in the store. He was on his knees, helping me pick up my bags. I took half of the bags and so did he. I extended my other arm so he would give me the bags but he didn't. I looked at him and he smiled. "You are holding too many things, mind if I help?" He asked calmly and smiled. "Yes," I said as I fixed my bangs with my other hand. "Excuse me?" He asked as he fixed his tie. "I'm trying to say that... I gotta go home and I don't need help," I stated as I started walking. "Well then let me help you get home fast," he said as he started following me. "Where is your car?" He asked as he looked around. "There is no car," I scoffed. "I was just asking. I can take you in my car," he offered and I saw him sweating. "How very gentlemanly of you. Thank you for the offer but I think your sweat glands don't like the idea of you helping me. You are sweating quite too much," I stated as I saw him pulling out a cloth and wiped his sweat. "It's not that. It's just I'm not used to staying out in the sun for long," he stated. "It's not even sunny," I replied back as he scratched his nose. "Well a lady like you will definitely get those sweat glands pumping," he winked. Oh god. Here he starts about him and his not so charming self. "Ugh. Stop!" I groaned. "Excuse me?" "Stop hitting on me, It's not gonna work," I stated as he chuckled. "Hmm. Hard to get types," he stated. "How about not getting by anyone types," I stated. "Touché. I find that more challenging." "Well don't waste your time on me. I have to go," I said as I extended my arm. "Well how will you get home then?" He asked. "By walking. Do you mind?" I asked as I took all the bags and left. "By the way I'm Jeremy!" He called out but I was too busy fixing the bags. "Yeah whatever," I shouted back. "You?" He yelled out. "Not that I'm ever gonna see you again," I yelled back as I walked home without further talking. ~~~ When I reached home I started ringing the doorbell. Grandma didn't open the door so I decided to open it myself. I placed all of the groceries on the ground and took out my key. I slowly opened the door and carried all the groceries to the kitchen. "Keechee?" I called out but no response. "Keechee? Where are you keechee?" I called out again and no response. Suddenly I heard a loud thud in the bedroom. I carried a bat and slowly went to the bedroom. "Keechee?" I said slowly. I opened the bedroom door and didn't see anyone there. Out of nowhere keechee came from behind the door and scared me. "Boo," she shouted and I screamed, about to hit her with the bat but I stopped when I noticed it was her. I hated when she scared me like this. My heart was racing fast and I'm sure my Blood Pressure was high. I started sweating. "Keechee stop doing that. I thought something happened," I whined as I stomped my way to the kitchen and she followed. "Now I'm getting old and I have to do something fun," she said. "Whatever I'm not talking to you," I said. "Fine don't talk to me but get ready." "Get ready? For what?" "For a dinner." "What dinner?" "With a handsome young man as-" she started and my eyes widened. "Handsome young what?" I looked at her in disbelief. "- your date," she finished her sentence. "A date?" I shouted and she looked at me with puppy eyes.
