Now, I did not only get the lady's number but her contact card, the good thing was that I didn't ask for it. If you can remember from the last episode she gave it to me willingly. I know it may seem silly but I walked to the taxi that day like a boss hahaha.

I could not get the moment out of my mind for the rest of that day. Funny enough I didn't have the feeling of calling her. All I wanted was to enjoy the moment as it was. I held onto her contact card like I had just won a 5 million dollars lottery ticket.
It was 3 days later that I couldn't resist any longer. "To hell with it" I said to myself as I pressed her digits into my phone. I dialed her number quickly to beat the temptation of having to change my mind but inside me I was praying hard and hoping that the call did not go through. As if the god of network was hearing me, the number could not be reached.

I didn't try again that day but I was buried on the internet searching for phone conversation ideas just to prove to her I was as confident as the guy she met at the store. The next day I called again and this time it went through. I begun praying she doesn't answer, unfortunately this time I wasn't very lucky. She answered the call and quickly cut the call!
come on! why should I do that? What was I so scared of? Now my heart was pouncing really hard as if I was going for an interview to work at the white house. Moments later my phone rang, bam!! it was her. What was I to do, answer? and tell her what?
I hesitated a little and then answered. Naturally my voice was shaking. "hello! hello, are you there?" asked the voice from the other end, I could not say a word, I just had to cut the call. I was now in my room biting my fingers and feeling like a real loser.

Whiles all these was going on, school reopening date was fast approaching which meant that I did not have forever to man up and face her.
Believe it or not, each day I went to the supermarket not to buy chocolate or shaving stick but just in case she came around. I'm getting a little emotional at this point! What on earth was I thinking? That I can't speak on phone and therefore I needed to face her?

certainly that one-day-glory in the store had gotten into my head yet it was not strong enough to awaken my confidence within. One day I was in luck or was that even luck or just another opportunity to exhibit the distasteful side of me. That day I just got there when I she entering the supermarket. I watched her as she stepped into the store like I had just met the queen of England for the first time.

As soon as she was out of sight, I went closer to the store front but the other side of me did not stay at home. It begun telling me it was a stupid idea to go in there. That I was just going to embarrass myself for no reason. I stood there for like 5 minute or more and finally decided to leave. I walked like a zombie to the roadside stopped a taxi and was off.

Soon school was reopened which meant that presumably she was also gone back to school, I couldn't say for sure because I was not even bold enough to call her and ask her which school she attended.

That was what happened to my second attempt at dating, It was like dribbling the goal keeper but missing the goal.

After another sad end to the romantic story, was I to just give up? "Perhaps I'm not just cutout for this" I said to myself, why not just stop, may be when I got rich the ladies will come. Those were the thoughts running through my mind when I moved back to school. But the Ehm KanndeI know does not give up that easily.
So this time could I stand another embarrassment? How was my third attempt going to be like? was it far off from the second attempt? was it going to be a success or another catastrophe? what was I to do differently to change my mindset about ladies?
We shall find out in the next episode! Stay tuned and have blessed time!
