-Part five-

Zara's pov

I slowly walk up to the super handsome man, trying a little too hard to seem "cool and collected" and try not to make it obvious that I think this man is ABSOLUTELY gorgeous

Oh gosh, I am so happy Ava is in the back baking, or else she would definitely catch on how red I probably am...

"Hi I'm Zara, nice to meet you" I smile up at him putting my hand out for a handshake

He meets my hand to shake it and oh boy does he have NICE hands DAMNNN ahh Zara SHUT UP!!

"Hi I'm Enzo" oooh that's so hot, dang it why can't my brain shut up for a minute

"I wasn't lying when I said she can come anytime she's a sweet girl and seems like she's already got a hold of part of my heart the past about 3 hours I have spent with her" I saying smiling slightly

"Also she did eat a whole slice of chocolate cake just so you know...that's actually how this all started" I saying starting to laugh lightly, before clearing my throat to continue

He smiles a tiny bit, geez his smile is pretty

"Thank you your smiles pretty too," he says chuckling

HOLY SHIT I did NOT just say that out loud are u kidding me! I'm so embarrassing

"Anyways," I say laughing awkwardly "I hope you find a good nanny because she is really sweet and that woman before really neglected her and I don't want that to happen to the sweet girl"

"Ya I don't want that happening either, TRUST me I am going to be doing a lot of research from now on making sure I find a great nanny, but it might take a while to find one," he says smiling as he looks at his daughter

"I don't know who you are but I already really like your daughter so I could watch her if u would like until you find a better nanny that you really fully trust," I say smiling up at him, I mean REALLY this man is TOWERING over my 5'3 1/2 frame...and yes the half counts!

This man must be like 6'3!!! He's HUGE!

Hehe, that's what she said...UGH STOP IT ZARA!

"That's a really sweet offer I might just have to take you up on it, I work a lot so it's really difficult," he says sadly smiling looking at Mia, I can tell he doesn't like that he doesn't get to see Mia a lot because of work

"Alright we'll I can give you my number and we can talk about It more later! Mia looks like she can use a nap after that sugar! And probably a real meal" I say

We exchange numbers and I go to say goodbye to Mia

"Bye sweetheart, I'll see you later okay?" I smile down at her

"Promise?" She says looking up at me with hopeful eyes, man she is just the cutest little girl, she looks almost identical to her father! Both have green piercing eyes and dark dark hair! Ugh, I am jelly!

"Promise," I say while hugging her

I say goodbye to Enzo one last time and then they leave

And then I go to the back to absolutely SPILL everything to Ava!!

"AVA!! Girl I need to vent" I say freaking out just a bit

"What's up zee,? Is it about that little girl"

"Yes! Omg her father is SO good looking he looks like someone painted him!!! God spent his sweet time making him!! His jaw looks sculpted out of glass" I say freaking out

Ava starts laughing "wow someone has a crush this is the first time in my 4 years I have known you that you have taken this much of a liking to a guy," she says trying to stop laughing

"I know it's weird that man is just, Ugh I don't know I just feel like I wanna get to know him more he's so mysterious yet sweet I guess? I am not sure and his daughter is ABSOLUTELY adorable!!...Oh gosh! What if he has a girlfriend!!!" I say starting to freak out just a bit, I mean he didn't have a ring on his finger...

"Calm down girl! Did you guys plan to meet again or something?"

"Not really but we exchanged numbers and we might talk later about me babysitting mia while he tries to find a permanent sitter," I say all a little too fast

"Okay....so just casually slip in and ask if he's single in the conversation, " she says like it's the most obvious and easiest thing ever

"Ava! And how do I do that, say what exactly? 'Hey hot perfect man are u single by any chance and want to get to know a boring, poor girl like me I mean COME ON! The man could have ANY girl he wants why would he take a liking to me anyway?"

"Girl SHUT UP, you are absolutely stunning and if he doesn't see that then I can gladly shove some forks in his eyes cus there broken if he can't see your beauty! And you can say something along the lines of this 'we'll do u have a girlfriend or wife or something that can watch Mia?' Or whatever blah blah blah just slip it in while your talking about nanny arrangements like your just helping him or something" she shrugs, man I love this girl she's such a sweetheart I don't know how she doesn't have a boyfriend

"I love you Ava thank you!!" I say while hugging the life out of her

"Okay okay, I need to breathe zee!" She says laughing

"Sorry" I giggle

Then we get back to work we have a couple more hours till we have to close and then we will be able to go home, and I can't wait to say hello to my bed!

After about an hour I get a text

Unknown number: hey this is Enzo, thank you so much for watching Mia, I appreciate it and I would love to talk more to you about temporarily having you watch her while I find someone to permanently watch her if you are up to discuss it.

I quickly change the contact name and respond

Zara: hi, it was no problem she was absolutely the sweetest and I had a fun time watching her I'm just glad that you came when you did I was gonna call the cops! I was getting really worried there, and ya I can talk more about watching her temporarily!

After a bit, he answered

Enzyyy: thank you again, and yes I'll call or text you tomorrow so we can meet up somewhere to talk more about it, I'll let you get back to work, for now, goodnight Zara

Heh I couldn't help myself with making his contact name the nickname sweet little Mia calls him

Zara: it was no problem, talk to you later, goodnight Enzo
