Hello Steemians, I feel honoured to yet again participate in this contest, much thanks to @steem-cameroon for bringing this mind-blowing contest to bay. I will not fail to appreciate you for always reading each and every contents shared here and as well putting up yours for others to learn, it is such a privilege to be here and learning from the best. Let's get down to the main business of today, stay glued to your screen and enjoy this wonderful short movie.

A park could be seen to be an open area or space built mainly for recreational purposes. But to further understand more, let's see how Cambridge discretionary defines a park:

"a large area of land with grass and trees, usually surrounded by fences or walls, and specially arranged so that people can walk in it for pleasure or children can play in it"Link

Also, a park is where most at times people go to take fresh breath, think and strategize their life. It more of being just a recreational centre, it is one of the best rated place to find peace and tranquility when things are going south, so it is recommended to everyone to pay a visit to one.

Unintended Romance

Melvin: The first timer park visitor, who just got over his ex.

Charity: The regular park girl, who always visits the park atleast thrice a week.

This is a real life story of a 20 year old Melvin who on his own was doing everything within his reach to get over his toxic relationship ship that ended some weeks back, in his quest to heal very fast, he decided to visit a park outside his town. What would be the outcome?, Will he be able to get over his 5 years relationship he just lost?, Let's find out his fate.

It was Friday evening and the weather was fair though it was a little windy outside, Melvin has been contemplating visiting a park for the very first time in his life, the heartbreak from his just-ended relationship took a toll on him and made lose pounds of weight, "how will I get back to my feet" he do mutter to himself. He took some money out of his drawer and sludge them into his pocket like he was being haunted, quickly, he grabbed his sweat top and headed out. He was really intentional about visiting a park, so he took a taxi and left his home town. The journey took him 45 minutes and at last he arrived the park.

On reaching the park, he gave a sigh of relieved and in astonishment, he went straight to the park seat to go have some rest and at the same time have a wonderful view of the park, the environment was so friendly, the sky was seemingly beautiful like it was made specially for that park. He reached to his pocket and paid for an ice cream he took from the ice cream van, heading to his sit, he could hear the birds chirping, everything right there felt refreshing to Melvin as that was his first time to be there. He approached his sit and sat down, rolling his eyes like a novice and scannjng through the park, he saw how beautiful trees were trimmed to look like, the aura was mesmerizing and he felt he had much time on his side to spend there, atleast what would give him such peace he hardly experienced for the past few weeks.

He sat down and was still taking a glance of the environment when his eyes stumbled on something he couldn't resist to look again, it was Charity, the regular Park visitor who has come yet again to have some fresh breath before going back home.

Charity approaching

Melvin's eye was sticked to Charity charming look and she (Charity) could notice that but she never gave it much of a thought because she has been seeing such overtime. She went to her regular spot and sat down there,

Charity at her spot

even a total novice will know that the way she entered the promises meant just one thing: it was never her first time. Melvin could no longer kept his cool as his eyes were continually fixed at Charity. At this point you could say: Melvin forgot about his broken relationship of 5 years and was carried away by Charity's beauty and courteous smile.

Melvin went straight to where Charity was seated and extend his hands towards Charity for a handshake and shockingly, Charity reciprocated, this alone sends Melvin to a trance and back to reality, "can I join you?", He requested of charity,

Melvin requesting for a seat

"sure, go ahead", Melvin never wasted a second when he sat down with the new found Angel. "I'm Melvin, I just came to relax here", he said looking towards Charity's direction, "I'm Charity, guess I'm just seeing you here for the first time", she replied looking at him also, Melvin was already lost in words as he couldn't say a thing, contemplating what he will answer, alot of things went through his mind, "what if I tell her it is my first time, how would she think of me?, If I tell her I am regular, she might as well think I am not saying the truth", he kept on asking himself as he shifted a little bit closer to Charity.

Melvin Discussing with Charity

"Well, this is my first time here, I know it sounds weird, I'm not really an outside kind of person" he replied as his heart kept beating fast and was so eager to hear what Charity had to say. "That's nice, i'm regular here, this is where my parents always takes me to when I was a kid, I'm used to this spot and it has long became part of me", she answered putting up a smiling face. Atleast, Melvin wasn't looked down on, that boosted his ego for once. He went ahead to ask Charity a few question as he felt more relaxed with her, they exchanged contact and decided to take a stroll or should I say tour round the park.

Taking a stroll round the park

It was getting cloudy and Charity had to go before her uncle starts ringing her phone to death, but the unexpected rain came and it was so heavy that Charity had to stay back a bit so it can calm for her to get back home. She was not expecting a rainfall and as such never came with her sweat top, Melvin who was already on a a hoodie, gave his sweat top to Charity, at first she felt shy to put it on, but then Melvin told her it was really okay, he never mind if she can take it home. It was already 6:30pm and the park was about to be closed, Melvin's Uber was just right on time and Charity was given a free ride back home, on their way, they held eachother's hand right inside the Uber, Melvin gave Charity a kiss on the lips", Charity who least expected that had goosebumps all over her as that was her very first kiss from a guy, she started feeling uneasy, Melvin understood her and asked apologized, though she said everything was fine. They arrived Charity's house and she bid Melvin goodbye and headed towards their gate as she promised to ring Melvin in the next one hour. Throughout the journey, Melvin couldn't get his mind of the event, the holding of hands to kissing a total stranger he felt he had met for decades.

Melvin was home, the journey was smooth and within some minutes at home, his phone rang, and it was the number he just saved an hour ago "Charity", he picked up and Charity asked if he was home, he affirmed. "Was that intentional?" Charity asked, "That was an unintentional romance" Melvin answered, they both laughed and light fades.
