Daddy's Babygirl
Modern Is there such a thing as "Love at first sight?" And if so, can Cindy find a way to show Alex? The names are changed, but the story is true. This story began 8 months ago. But the past has a way of rearing its ugly head when you least expect it to.
Cindy King is a 48-year-old mother of seven, five boys, two girls, all over the age of 18. She had been working in her hometown of Wadsworth, Oklahoma for going on two years now, but still finding it hard to meet her ever going monthly bills, she makes a last-ditch decision and go to Vante, Oklahoma, and apply for a job at the only Casino there. Thinking this is just going to be a job to help pay her bills and maybe just maybe help her move away from her ex-husband and finally have a life to call her own. She walks into Dunbar's Buffet after the hour's drive over, she looks around and her eyes fall on a man that smiles' brighten the entire venue, and without realizing it she can not tear her eyes away from him. Even not knowing his name, can not hinder her heart rate that went from her normal 105/80 sky-rocketing to what felt like 300/160 in as little as two microseconds. Cindy had given up on love, especially after her ex-husband not only cheated on her but had mentally, verbally, and physically abused her during the 25 long years of the relationship and marriage. And after so many years of being told you are fat, ugly, and treated as less than a speck of dust under someone's shoe, you tend to start believing that everything they say is true. Even if it's not, and you think that you never deserve to find much less have someone that truly will love you. This is the way Cindy felt because as she looked into the unknown man's eyes, she thought 'If only I was worthy enough to have someone like him, then I could truly and finally be happy in life. But I will never be beautiful or worthy enough, so I won't even try." So she continued to say Hi to her new co-workers, even as she still could not look away from the man.
Alex Martinez, a 22-year-old man, shy and mysterious, keeps to himself because his last girlfriend used him and cheated on him with another man for two years before Alex caught them. He is standing at the fryers about to pull chicken up, hears a timid voice of the new employee, another female. She is saying hi to the other co-workers, who are trying to get her attention, but when Alex raises his eyes to see what the female looks like, his eyes find her's unwavering from his. And he thinks " What is going on in her pretty little mind, why can I feel her eyes are touching me in a wonderful feeling as if her fingers are running along my very skin?" As he turns back to the fryer vat to pull the chicken he can still feel her gaze fixed on his profile, and he side glances at her to find that even though the others are between them it feels as if no one is there.
Toby Parks, a 36-year-old man, loves his husband, but this new girl has his eye in a way that no other female has ever gotten to him. She is kind, sweet, but damn if she doesn't have fire in her eyes and a temper to match his very own. But why is her eyes on Alex, is there something happening, I say "Hi" and she kindly replies with a timid "Hi" back, but she never removes her eyes from him. And all I can think is "If he hurts her, I will kill him on the spot."
Will Cindy and Alex make it, or are they doomed from the very start? Keep reading to find out.
