direction. She knew that it was her last shot. Finding a car at such an isolated place was nothing but a miracle. She literally stood in the middle of the road, trying to halt the vehicle. It was a navy colored Ford truck that looked almost black in the pitch dark. The truck was already running at a fast speed, and as the driver hit the brake, the entire atmosphere echoed the sound. Kurt didn’t expect to find a beautiful woman like Sarah standing in the middle of the road at such an ungodly hour. He had to rub his eyes to make sure if it was true or not. It was not a figment of his imagination and he finally realized that he should step out to check what was happening with the woman. “Please help me, my car just broke in the middle of nowhere!” he heard the woman’s voice as he lowered the glass. Kurt stepped out of his car and looked at Sarah. He couldn’t stop admiring how beautiful she looked. Sarah was wearing a gorgeous black dress that complimented her curves and flawless body. She had long legs and her matching stilettos were doing magic to her sculpted physique. She was wearing minimalistic makeup or jewelry and even in that pitch darkness, her face was lit up, her lips were lustrous red and Kurt couldn’t think of anything else but to kiss her in the middle of that road. She had beautiful blond hair that was perfectly placed near her shoulders; depicting her amazing jaw line and making her blue eyes glitter in the dark. Kurt had never seen a woman as beautiful as Sarah, and for a moment, his entire world halted. He couldn’t stop thinking about anything but her. “Can you help me?” Sarah asked him again in desperation. She knew that stopping a car like that at an isolated place could be dangerous, but she had no other option. As Kurt stepped out of his car and looked at Sarah, she knew that she didn’t make the wrong choice. There was a moment of silence when their eyes met. As Sarah looked into Kurt’s hazel eyes that looked like chocolate brown in the dark, she knew that the man would end up helping her. They say that eyes are the window to our soul – it felt very apt at that moment, as they looked into each other and felt a strange cosmic connection. There was something between their souls that they weren’t able to comprehend. It was as if they were waiting for each for so long, their souls were waiting for that one moment to come. “Yes, what is it?” Kurt finally asked her and broke her train of thoughts. Sarah couldn’t stop admiring how masculine and handsome Kurt looked. He had short hair that brought out all the features of his face perfectly. He had hazel eyes and a perfectly shaped face. His lips were rugged and he had slight stubble that Sarah wanted to feel. He was wearing an olive green Henley T-shirt that Sarah wanted to rip apart. She could see his bulging biceps and well-chiseled chest, shaping the Henley with his perfect body. Every cell of Sarah’s body wanted to experience Kurt’s masculinity as she couldn’t wait to kiss him wildly under that starlit night. “What happened? Are you alright, Miss?” Kurt asked her one more time, which made Sarah lose her temper. She was holding on to her thoughts for so long. “I don’t know. I don’t feel right. I was coming from a wedding, the kind of stupid wedding that I didn’t even want to attend at the first place. But I had to go and smile and hold the bouquet and the bride’s dress and do all those stupid things that I despise the most. I was sick of smiling at random people and telling them the same story over and over again. I couldn’t be there anymore so I decided to leave. I have taken this road so many times, but I don’t know what happened today. I am lost and I don’t know how to go back home. My car is not running, my spirit is low, and I don’t know what to do. I just want to go home.” As Sarah finished her rant, Kurt smiled while looking at her. He had never met a woman like Sarah and wanted to know
