College Village 3

Days go by without hearing nothing and her work is going smoothly, this month is bonus month and is wishing that it was already month end, she wants to buy a car but does not know which to choose. Walking down the steps she sees Pule looking on point in formal clothing, he saw her, she saw him, she quickly looked the opposite direction and walked passed. Jenny just got insecure and a bit doubtful, as she was walking with other ladies to a nearby mine club called Red Square, the ladies decided to stay and drink cause booze isn't allowed at the apartments,  Jenny decided to just buy biltong and walk back, and there were men whistling and wanted to grab her attention but she wasn't in the mood,  she was in a mood of ice cream and watch romantic soapy movies to depress her further. At her arrival she found Red Roses covered box with a note,

"Meet me outside at the parking lot tomorrow after work at 17:00 please...P"

After so long yet there isn't anything Jenny Is expecting from him so she just wanted to see what he has for her.
She went in her room, it was already late and the weather was clear and lovely, she was bored to repeat her videos so she decided to listen to some songs until she fell asleep.
Next day
Work Day.

Today work was hectic as there was a lot of damage underground in the nearby plant, they called all electrical engineering interns and Jenny was in the top 5 called to come check what caused the damage. Jenny was one of the third to come out with a report on what caused the problem with electricity drop and how they will fix it, she represented the other plant and was applauded for her good research,  they couldn't go back down before necessary things were done so she had to wait on surface till the danger has been looked into and the plant is safe for work again.
It was time to go home it was nearly 17h00, it was 15 minutes till 17, she waited for the bus till it was 17h00 and got home at 17h15, as she got to the parking lot, Pule was also in his uniform and told Jenny to meet him at 18h00 cause they both had hectic day at work. Jenny decides to wear a traditional jumpsuit made from traditional tswana fabric and plain fabric paired it with white heels,  as time was on her side, she decided to take her bag and wait outside by the parking lot bench, as Pule came he apologised and opened the door for her to get in, she didn't know where they were going but was not scared. Pule tried to make conversion but Jenny just kept it brief until they both arrived at a restaurant she wasn't familiar with. They both got out and went in, Pule was holding her hand and Jenny felt numbness whereby she can't say anything or do anything about it,  they booked a quiet table right at the back and Pule being the gentleman he pulled out the chair for her, she thanked him...
Pule : Did I say you looking exceptionally like a Tswana Princess with the number you have on, it's even turning heads.
Jenny : thank you I do love my tswana fabrics. So tell me why did you bring me here? Is this suppose to be a date?
Pule : *laughs* the reason why I brought you here is because when I was in your room I saw a pamphlet on top of your tv stand of this place, I came to review it and liked it so I wanted to show you this picturesque place you had seen in a pamphlet.
Jenny : Oh wow I forgot about it cause of car issues and all but thank you, it really is a beautiful restaurant.
Their orders came and they ate, they had a beautiful outing and almost forgot that tomorrow is work day. Pule kept on holding Jenny's hand on the the table but Jenny always slips it away. After they were done with dinner they went out for a walk, Jenny was two steps ahead of Pule, he just couldn't resist to see how smooth Jenny Is,  the way she holds objects, when she walks on heels, it was like a dream to him, Jenny stopped just by the bridge and watched how the river flows, Pule came from behind and hugged her, saw Jenny closed her eyes and smiled he kissed her on the cheek and asked,
'You really love nature hey?, he asked
Jenny: Yes I do, it gives me inner peace, it helps me relax, I wouldn't mind having or building my house on a mountainous place.
Pule: let's go its getting late Ms Nature
They both laughed and this time it was Jenny holding his hand tightly, they got in the car and drove off. On their way Jenny held Pule's hand which was on the gear and Pule lifted it up and kissed it. Jenny was numb to love, she liked the feeling of being loved in her own way,  cool music was playing when Pule pulled out his phone and asked Jenny to put in her numbers, he didn't have to hesitate as Jenny also wanted his numbers, she gave him hers and saved them, and told him that she has to go to college on Friday to attend lessons,  it was only Wednesday, Pule replied by saying that he'll call her, work was not as much fun as finding love at work, Jenny was going to the other plant that Pule works in cause it is where the damage was. He congratulated Jenny on her research and being top 3 of those that take their work seriously. They finally arrived at their apartments and as Jenny was about to walk out Pule asked her to accompany him to work tomorrow morning,  Jenny kissed him on the cheek and said goodnight and walked out, Pule watched her walk upstairs till she vanished. Jenny was tired and took off her jumpsuit and wore her Pj's and went to sleep.
Morning
She gets a text from Pule,
'Hey I'll be waiting for you on the opposite visitors parking lot, I'll call to confirm tomorrow at 5h00'.
He then later called to tell her about where to wait.
Jenny took a quick shower and went to make a huge lunch box because she wasn't going home early today and tomorrow she'll be at college, she held the lunch by hand and went downstairs to find him waiting, she got in and greeted him, Pule saw her large lunch box and asked her if he can come eat with her cause he didn't make lunch, she agreed (just because of the free comfy ride)  and they both went to work, on their arrival,  their smiles were glittering everywhere and people saw that, one of Pule's friend saw Jenny and Pule together,
'Iyoh! Pule my man its only Thursday and you smile like it's Friday, it's the girl you saved, shame.
