The encounter

It was a sunny day at Whataburger one of the best restaurant in New york city.

Ella was busy busy cleaning up the table used by the previous clients as she was enjoying the music of drake "God's Plan" coming from the earpiece inserted in her ears.Ella was just an average girl living in New York City.

She worked as a waitress in the bar to pay off her student loans. As she was busy with the cleaning the glazier door of the restaurant was opened hitting the little bell hanged above the glazier signaling someone's entrance.

It was a young man probably in his twenty fifth year dark skinned wearing a sunglass, which match exactly the black suit he was putting on and the golden wrist watch.

Immediately he walked majestically to one of the tables and took his sit. Then he took the menu and started going through it. While he was going through it, Ella approached and greeted him and immediately he lifted his head and looked at her she felt an instant attraction he looked over at her and smiled showing his white teeth like snow, and Ella felt her heart skip a beat. She couldn't help but admire how handsome he is, she was lost in her thoughts. Immediately his soft voice brought her back to reality.

- Hi I'm Ethan stretching his hand for a shake

Ella took a deep breath and tried to calm her nerves.She took his huge palms and immediately she felt a current go through her body which made her to retrieve her hands immediately.

-What can I serve you ?

- Just a sandwich and an orange juice

With the notebook she was holding she wrote down his order and within 10 minutes she served him and went to attend to other clients. After eating he gave her a sign to get him his bill. When Ella got him the bill he looked up at Elle and said, "Thank you. That was delicious."

Ella blushed and smiled. "Glad you enjoyed it."

Ethan took out his wallet and handed her a hundred-dollar bill. "Keep the change," he said.

Ella's mouth dropped open. She had never received such a large tip before. "Thank you," she managed to say.

Ethan winked at her and walked out of the diner. As soon as he was gone, Ella's co-worker, Sarah, rushed over to her. "Girl, do you know who that was?" she asked excitedly.

"No, who?" Ella asked, still reeling from the encounter.

Sarah leaned in and whispered, "That was Ethan Masters. He's a billionaire."

Around 6 Pm Ella was done with her shift so she came out in front of the restaurant and flag down a taxi that will take her to North bay shore where she rented an apartment. While in the taxi her mind went back to Ethan the handsome guy that came to the restaurant. She knew it was silly to be attracted to someone who she had just met only once and wasn't even sure of meeting him again but she couldn't just help it, she wished she would have to chance to meet him again. When she remembered the sensation she felt when she held his hands she just blushed to herself which and that made the taxi man who has being looking at her for a while through the front mirror to ask her

-ma'am are you okay

-Yes just remembered something that happened at my workplace I'll be stopping in the next street

- OK ma'am

Just in less than ten minutes she arrived at her destination and paid the taxi and went into her apartment.

The next day being a Saturday and and also a day off she usually visits the gardens around her area where she enjoys the gift of nature. After taking her breakfast she wore one of her pinks gowns that fits her complexion and trekked to the garden since it was just some meters from her apartment. As she was busy admiring the flowers and even taking picture of some that attracted her she felt someone tap her on the shoulder. She turned around and was surprised to see Ethan standing there. Hi," he said with a smile. "I hope you don't mind me taking you by surprise ."

Ella's heart was pounding in her chest. "No, not at all," she said, trying to sound calm.

"I was wondering if you'd like to grab a cup of coffee sometime," Ethan said. "Maybe get to know each other a little better? mind you I don't even know your name." " I'm Ella" she replied. "What a beautiful name" he complimented."Thank you" she said still blushing. "So what do you think about about grabbing the coffee". "I'd like that," she said, feeling a warm flush rise in her cheeks.

They exchanged numbers, and Ethan promised to call her soon. As he walked away, Elle couldn't stop smiling. She had a date with a billionaire.
