Dave stood just in front of the door. He had been there for 10 minutes then, not daring to knock it. He looked at his watch again, ten past five, he was supposed to be at the other side of that door 10 minutes ago. For a moment, he glanced at the stairs, the sign above them: EXIT. An escape, a way out, no need to keep pushing this madness forward...
He just took a deep breath and forced himself to face the door again. Apartment 206, white door, golden knob and a tiny red heart sticker in the right upper corner, all there, all in place. Just as she said. Dave checked his pockets, his phone was there, so were his wallet and keys. He was tempted to take his phone and check the chat one more time, just to be sure. But, as he reached for his pocket the white door of the apartment 206 opened with a squeak.
Chel was a twenty-five Caribbean girl, just 1 year younger than Dave. Her dark hair reached her lower back and highlighted her sensual figure. It was perfectly matched by her dark eyes which looked tender and lovely. Her brown skin was soft and spotless; she took care of it with daily routines. The sweet scent of her perfume make her only more desirable. Chel was a beautiful woman.
"Hi honey!" she said in her sweet tone, "I hope I did not keep you waiting for too long, I just got out of the shower."
Dave just stared at her, an electric current ran all over his back and his heart was about to explode. The last time he saw her was during a video call, she was wearing a white pullover and they discussed the details of this encounter. Now she was there; barefoot, covering herself with a towel and smiling at Dave.
"Hi..." babbled finally, "I-i-it-it's ok."
"Come in dear!" She said as she took Dave's hand and pulled him into her apartment, "You said you were going to be at five o'clock and since you were running late I thought I may do something special for you while waiting. Do you like them?" As she said the last question, she raised her right foot and showed it to Dave. Her nails were neatly painted with a bright yellow.
