Mid October, 2016, it was a typical Saturday night. I was coming from a birthday party with my friend, Adoree. We started at the birthday party, but as the night progressed, my friend was looking for more. We decided to stop by a place called Wicked Bloom Lounge in DC, where they were hosting a Kizomba dance social. Once we got in to the lounge, everybody looked bored, even though the Dj was playing really dope music. We went to the bar to order a couple drinks, and as soon I turn my head to scope the crowd, I see Nikki smiling. Her smile was so captivating and contagious, that I thought she was smiling at me! I immediately told my friend Adoree "I like her" (pointing to Nikki) and asked to be introduced. Adoree introduced Nikki and without delay, I asked Nikki if she was single and she said "yes". Her answer gave me courage to ask more questions like , "when is your birthday?" (which happened to be the same month as mine : November). After all the questions, I asked her to save me a dance. As she waited for the dance I asked for, I was trying to think about all things I could whisper into her ear during the dance. Tired of dancing with others and waiting for me (or so I thought), Nikki decided to go home. I begged her to stay and have our dance. After a great dance, she allowed me to walk her to her car. We spent 30 minutes talking, and I almost kissed her but she turn her face away. Then, I asked her one last question: "Can I have your number?" She gave me her number and I text her the next day to check on her by writing "stopping by just to check on you and I hope you have a nice day" Two weeks later, we had our first date at this fancy French restaurant, where I had to show how classy I am by ordering a lovely three-course meal. You know I got moves :) The following week, I received a call from her, asking me to come to celebrate her birthday with her and her friends, and we’ve been together ever since.
