I have to admit, I met a Grinch. The same Grinch we see on TV. The same Grinch who stole the Christmas. The one who won't let others celebrate the most wonderful time of the year!
The typical Grinch who would not like to have even any Christmas thing near him, the Grinch who would run away to another country in the name of business-meeting just to avoid Christmas. That Grinch who would skip family dinners during December, just to avoid celebration talk.
The Grinch was a nice young gentleman when I first met him. He was a loner at the same time, the owner of one of the largest Gift Making companies in the world. Weird, no? Whenever he would enter the office, all the employees would stop talking. It would be just his footsteps and nothing else.
Young girls would be looking at him with a romantic eye while boys would see him as their inspiration, and men... well most of them would be jealous.
I am the opposite, you might have guessed that by now.
I like holidays. I like Christmas.
The fight was like fire and ice.
If I want to decorate the place with all those red and green themes, he would keep me busy with other work. I wanted a grand Christmas tree in front of the reception area. He would be shaking his head like it's all wrong! Forget Christmas gifts! Christmas party was alien to him. I still don't know how his best friend and co-owner handle him. They both are so opposite. Marcus is so cute and friendly while the Grinch is dark and mysterious.
But slowly things change, don't they? Opposite always attracts. I think he is Scorpio. Because he doesn't talk about himself much.
But now, after 3 months of dating the same Grinch, I think sometimes only time can change a person and not us. How much I try, he would say, "Angel, you have changed me a lot. Is it not enough?"
That melts me every time he does this with his puppy eyes.
He is not the grumpy man I once knew as my boss. Now he is my sweet daring boyfriend with whom soon I will marry.. if he asks me to. Men do propose when they like someone, right? Or they still are confused? I don't know, and I don't wanna figure that out too soon.
For now, I am going with the flow. Letting him be whoever he wants to be, whatever he likes to be, hoping that one day he might forget the dark past he has, which he never talks with me. I would wait for the time he shows me the real him. I'll wait for that time.
For now, I am preparing for Christmas dinner at his place. There would be his whole family. I cannot wait to meet his sisters! I have heard a lot about them! Yes, he didn't run away for the fake business meeting that he used to do. I already said, he is changing slowly. I am not going to push him. I may be his secretary but I am also his girlfriend now. So for me, the responsibilities is more now.
I wore the dress he bought me the previous Christmas. He bought me more recently but this dress is special to me. That was the turning point of our lives.
He didn't know what he wanted out of this relationship and I didn't know if I wanna be in a relationship. I had only one breakup. One boyfriend and one breakup, and that hurt me a lot.
Hoping to play safe this time. Because this time, I don't have a place to run away to. Wherever I go, I am sure he'll find out.199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafbPIXuBwM
