The ceilings were about twenty feet high. Designs of fruit and flowers were carved into the moulding. There are mixture of endearingly vibrant colours of purple around the walls and white from the top. All these made the modern, multi functional event hall become amazingly mouth-opening to those seeing it for the first time. Different sets round-tables surrounded by seven chairs are fashioned with pricey and flowered-designed clothings. Almost everyone in the hall is concerned with the exceptional and majestic hall that was enough for a billionaire's birthday.

Amazing look struck everyone in the hall, way from the guest, to the families of the birthday man. But getting to Stefen, he cared not about the hall. Not even a miniature bit did Stefen care about the building. His soul took his mind alongside, from his actual position but long away to the imagination of the elegant beauty he never had seen in his life before until this moment.

He wondered the greatness of God in creation as he saw this woman. She was one of a kind he would be seeing for the first time. His long way got him unnoticed that everyone on the round vips table where he was seated stood up a little bit and gather towards the center of the table to say some whisperings. They all set their left ears to the whispering of one among them. In a moment, they burst into laughter and returned to their seats.

"Have I been always blind from seeing the greatness of God in creation or I've never seen this one before?" Stefen said to himself, barely above whisper.

The feeling is completely different; he was having the kind for a lady his very first time. He never had a feeling to a woman since he was small. He used to have dozens of girlfriends during his school time. His handsome looking face did not account for this, and neither was he brainy enough to deserve such. It was nothing but result of his silver spoon he was born with.

Even though, he is the kind every guy wants to be but despite his riches, he lacked what riches can't buy. He never knew how it feels to have feeling for a woman and neither did he have the idea of how to propose and lure a woman to his heart.

This was his first time his heart would open up for a woman and he's ready to give it all but his look and actions said the opposite.

His father was the richest and a billionaire in the city. He was also one of the richest men in USA. It was more than enough reason for women to run after him.

But he felt quite different in this condition. He fixated his gaze on this woman, with his mind in deep thought of him and her together in a closure.

A beautiful petite figure from the woman's hand pushed and tossed on the ground. Stefen's face follows her head as it moved towards the group while she picks the bangles that fell. His sight followed her head's motion up again while she rose from scouting, just like he's being programmed to follow her reaction.

Stefens view on her got overlapped by one of her friends after she got to her feet. He adjusted his sitting more than a couple of times just to smuggle his way back to the lane that leads to her face.

"Smiles are not a scarce commodity on her face." He muttered and proceeded in a low voice. "I wonder what made up her endless grins. Her glowing skin sparked the surving lust in me. Her glittering skin coincided with my taste for woman." He continued to say to himself.

"Attention everyone please!!!" Stefan's Uncle, Mr Anderson, the birthday man called out for everyone's attention. He was sitting third seat away from Stefen, but they could all see one another easily because it was in a round-table. The call for people's attention he made on his feet caused the murmurings around came to halt.

"Thank you, thank you...Yeah yeah". He said to the DJ as the volume of the music continued to get lower till it stopped.

Stefen buried his face unto his palms, got worried about how silence created by his Uncle's speech disrupted his amusing minutes by putting his train of imagination to halt. He got in his feet, pulled his chair to the back and set to leave the table.

"Where are you going to at the moment of this event?" His father asked. He always cared about him than almost every other thing. Even though, his mother was the cleaner of his office years ago before he cheated on his wife. He felt the best way to run away from the shame after it got spread as a leaked case was to get married to her. His opinion turned to be of advantage as the only child he had before his first wife's death was a complete psychopath.

"I need to visit the restroom dad." He replied.

"Okay".

Stefen left the table and went straight to the exit of the hall. On his way there, he tapped his long-lasting friend, Mark.

He waited for Mark outside the luxurious hall where two security men are staying.

"Hey, what's up dude?" mark said to him as he strolled out of the hall with a cup of wine on his right hand.

Stefen stayed at his front, laid his left hand on the right shoulder or Mark's suit."Guy, I don't...I don't understand what's wrong but...I think...Whoop". He stammered and made a short-term progressive outlet of air from his mouth in exhaustion.

"What's wrong Bro, speak to me".

"I feel like I'm falling in love or something". He said with his right hand second and middle finger scratching his face".

"Ooh my God! You have never told me such a thing since we've been together for years Stefen. Thank Goodness your heart got struck already. Whoa!!!" He shouted aloud and raised his arms up that Stefen quickly covered his mouth and put down his arms. Stefen looked around to check if anyone wasn't aware of their conversation but could only see the security men standing still.

"Let's get in, let's get in Bro." Mark said to him.

"It's okay."

The two entered the hall, where everything was back to partying again.

"There she is." Stefen pointed at the lady.

"Whoa, you've got great eyes Bro. But I've got to be honest with you, she is very beautiful. And you never asked me of this help throughout our days in high school, even in college. But as I always tell you, woman is one of the smallest things you can attain at any cost.

Mark bluffed with Stefen's wealthy pride. He never gave it a second thought about the lady as he moved towards her. He thought she was the same as those he has always seen who easily fell for wealthy guys with luxurious cars, expensive gifts. He skidded flamboyantly along the way till he got to the back of the ladies.

"Hello!! Good morning. Trust you're all doing well." He said after greeting with a wide smile showing his first set of incisors.

"Hello, Hi, hello... They replied him in chorus.

"I would like to see you in private." He said without pointing at anyone. The three of them looked at one another in confusion.

"I mean you." He said again pointing at the one at the middle.

"Me." She asked softly.

"Yeah you."

Stefen looked from one side of the corner, seeing the two of them working out of the group. He wondered what his friend would say to her.

"Would he not mess the whole thing up? He plays and flirts with women a lot. What if she falls for him?" Different thoughts ran through his mind.

"No no no". He shaked his head quickly, cutting him off the train of unbearable thought.

Stefen had a seat on a chair with no one around the table. In a moment, a loud voice scared him from his left ear.

"Boooom!!."

"What's... who's that?. Oh, it's you. You scared me man."

"Phase one in stealing her heart, done and dusted. The next phase is going to be your turn Stefen." Mark said to him.

"What do...how?" He asked in surprise with his two palms raised separately. After a couple of minutes which a server stole form them by changing the cups wine on the table with another one, he proceeded.

"I was thinking you have done everything and..." He stammered and spoke in surprise and shrugged.

"And what? And should I tell her you are asking her out? That's not going to be mine this time around Bro. You're grown enough to ask a woman out. This isn't your first time dating someone anyways."

"But it's my first time asking someone out."

"Oh my God Haha, think about it. Isn't this comical? You have dated scores of women but never asked one of them out. They followed you because they enjoyed your money and you did not date any of them because you have feeling for them, all because you could form big boy like others and maintain the same tradition of having girlfriends. This time around, you've got feeling and you'll surely ask her out. Now go go goo!!."
