STACH Short Story Contest #20: Valentine Special- 199 words, a lovely prize pool, everyone wins!

in writing •  7 years ago 

Love happens slowly, or so I thought. I wasn't going to rush her, I was going to give her time. For two years, I've tried to make her feel what I felt for her but all my efforts weren't successful, so I gave up.
I started trading cryptocurrencies, consequently changing my financial status.
That was when she started coming after me, I was shocked but decided to give it a try.
Since Valentine was around the corner, I decided to make it special for her. It was special for me also, since it was going to be my very first Valentine. I took her to the movies, after which I took her home to prepare her dinner. I placed lighted candles around the house to create a romantic setting.
We ate and talked for a long time, we finally decided to retire to bed. What I got that night was a far cry from what I was expecting, she gave it to me, like nobody had given me before. Due to exhaustion I fell asleep only to wake up to find an empty bed. All the money I had in the house was gone even my phone, wasn't spared.
