Michael couldn’t hold back a smile when he heard that the gypsy woman mistakenly assumed his destination. What the hell kind of funeral? She even offered to tell fortunes about the future, which was completely wild for him. However, the man did not want to upset her, because, apparently, she was doing it with good intentions to somehow thank him for his attention.
Michael quickly headed to the pedestrian crossing, preparing to continue his path. Suddenly, the gypsy woman called out to him when he was already moving away. “At least enter from the side entrance, not the central one!” The young man stopped and turned around in bewilderment, but the woman was already leaving.
He still couldn’t understand what exactly she meant by her words. “What a strange woman,” he thought, continuing his way. And then, as if on purpose, the bus left right in front of his nose.
Michael quickly assessed the situation and decided that there was no point in spending money on fare, because by the time he waited for the next bus, he could already run to the restaurant. That day was full of excitement for the young guy. He decided to meet his beloved Emily’s parents.
The girl was from a wealthy family, and he was very afraid that his simple background and modest position might repel her parents. His heart was pounding in anticipation of this meeting. Michael had recently graduated from college and got a job at a bank as a teller.
Compared to Emily, his beloved, he seemed completely poor to himself. But for Emily, his financial position didn’t matter at all, because she sincerely loved him. She always said that her parents would definitely love him, just as she loves him.
However, despite her confidence, anxiety still did not leave him. The excitement reached its peak, and the guy understood that his future with Emily might depend on this meeting. They planned to get married, and her parents’ approval was extremely important.
Deep down, he hoped that the sincerity of his feelings and honest intentions could outweigh any doubts that her parents might have due to his modest position. Michael really wanted to make a good impression on his future fiancée’s parents and friends, but in the end, he was late. And before that, he spent an eternity in front of the mirror, choosing the perfect outfit to look impeccable today.
