Chidi raised an eyebrow at Michelle's sudden compliment, unsure of how to respond. He had always been confident in his looks, but hearing it from someone as beautiful as Michelle made him feel a bit flustered."Um, thank you," Chidi replied, a small smile playing on his lips. "But let's focus on getting you home safely, okay?"Michelle nodded, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. She couldn't believe she had just blurted out how handsome Chidi was. She had always found him attractive, but she never expected to be standing in his room, drunk and unable to find her way home.As Chidi led Michelle out of his apartment and towards her own, they walked in silence. The tension between them was palpable, the air thick with unspoken words and unexplored feelings.Finally, as they reached Michelle's door, she turned to Chidi and mustered up the courage to speak."Chidi, I... I'm sorry for barging in like that. I was just so out of it and I didn't know where else to go," Michelle said, her voice barely above a whisper.Chidi looked at her, his eyes softening. "It's okay, Michelle. We all have our moments. Just promise me you'll be more careful next time, okay?"Michelle nodded, a small smile tugging at her lips. "I promise. And thank you for helping me get home."Chidi smiled back, his heart fluttering at the sight of her. "Anytime, Michelle. Just... be safe, okay?"With that, Michelle opened her door and stepped inside, leaving Chidi standing in the hallway, his mind racing with thoughts of the beautiful woman he had just helped. As he made his way back to his own apartment, he couldn't shake the feeling that this chance encounter might just be the beginning of something special.And as Michelle lay in bed that night, her mind filled with thoughts of Chidi and the way his eyes had looked at her, she couldn't help but wonder if maybe, just maybe, this drunken mistake had turned out to be the best thing that had ever happened to her.
