Stalking

He first saw her coming out of a shop.

She was with a couple of girlfriends. The name of the shop and their bags told him they had been buying clothes. They were all laughing, but it was the smile that lingered on her face that made his pulse race. Several times after this, he spotted her again. A couple of times, coming out of a building, where he imagined she worked and once in a nearby café. After a few days of seeing her around town, he was sitting on a seat in the middle of one of the shopping centre’s thoroughfares. He knew that she would pass that way. He had observed that this was the route she took from her office to the café where she usually had lunch.

Eventually, she came into sight. She was passing, when she suddenly stopped and looked across at him. There was no smile visible as she approached. Standing directly in front of him and still frowning, she said, “Are you stalking me?”

Momentarily lost for words, he could only blurt out the truth. “No,” he said, “but I did wonder if I could take you to lunch.”

Now smiling, she said, “I thought you’d never ask.”
