She blushes.
“Is that a yes?” he asks.
“Well, I don’t know ” She smiles.
“Come on, what is there not to know? I like you. You like me. We have had fun dates. We both enjoy each others company and… we have good laughs. What is there not to know?” He inquires still looking into her eyes.
“Well, what if it doesn’t work out. I mean. This has been great and all but what if it gets ruined if we actually date? “
“It wouldn’t”

“And you know that how? “
He shrugs “Why do I have a feeling you don’t like me as much?” He leans away.
She pouts “Of course I like you and we both got out of a bad relationship and stuff and… I am just skeptical”
“Okay, that’s like a few months ago already. We can’t continue to dwell in the past. Unless you still got something for, your “ Daniel ? “

“Eww!!” She screws up her face.
“What’s Eww? You were balling your eyes out and almost having a nervous breakdown when we met” He left me… He left me wha wha whaaa” He pretend-cries teasing her.
She punches him playfully.
“Oww!” He rubs his arm and laughs.
“You were not much different. Sulking up and hating on the word love “
“Well, it is a trickish four lettered word. Not to be taken lightly or used inappropriately” he points and then drops his hands.
“And yet you want to dive right back in?” she made the diving gesture with her free hand. He still held her other hand. She liked the feel of his hands and the way he stared at her intently so.
“Yes. Because I like you. I want to spend more time with you. Know you more. Really more” His eyes sparkles “and besides, I let you be you around me. Even allow and indulge your crazy. You should date me!” he winks at her. She laughs.
“Hmm because you are charming? “
“Oh, I am more than Charming princess. I see your eyes lit up when you see me. Hey don’t blush!” he touches her cheeks as she hides her face away.
“I am mostly shocked at the huge Adam apple protruding out of your neck so forgive me if my eyes pop out!” She sticks out her tongue.

“Oh really? What about the way I make you laugh, with careless abandon hmm? ” he pokes her cheeks.
She throws her hands in the air looking around “It’s simply because I don’t want you to feel inadequate when you tell me boring jokes. So I laugh so you can feel good with yourself.” she smiles
He laughs. “I see, how about when I hug you and you linger?”
“Well erm..” She bites her lower lips “It’s because well… you never had enough hugs when you were little and I am trying to fill in the gap. See.. I am a good person. “
Now he is laughing hard as she tries to keep a straight face “You are trying too hard to be woke ainnit? “
She is blinking her lashes “Just trying to shy away from the obvious” she pouts taking her glass of juice and drinking.
“Is that a yes? Or I should do more convincing and wooing? “
“Oh is that what you have been doing?” she taps her jaw tentatively and gave a serious look. It wasn’t working. Her lips were threatening to break out from the curve of her lips.

“As a matter of speaking. Yes. But.. I can do more if it isn’t up to a “Yes” level from you. Tell me how to blow you away and get that yes in an instant ” he winks.
“Well…if I tell you it would be easy wouldn’t it?
“Oh come on, you are going to make this hard for me aren’t you? “
She shrugs picking her bag “Dunno”
He sighs “Say yes? “
She smiles “I will think about it”
“One hour? I can call you to find out” he gets up after paying the bill.
“Oh patience Sire… the seed is yet to germinate. “
“Ah, we are doing accent now. “
“Aye Sire!” They smile at each other.
They exit the restaurant and he opens the door to his car for her and waits for her to slip in. He goes around, enters and then stares at her.

“You are not going to keep me waiting are you? “

“Maybe.. You might change your mind and realise how crazy of a person I am and you can deal with my silly and you would be glad you dodged the bullet. “
“I won’t!! “
She smiles.. “I”ll tell you tomorrow “
“Tomorrow it is, then I would tell you tomorrow too”
“Tell me what? Tell me now”
“Patience Princess, you like to dish out but don’t want to take. Naughty naughty” he flicks her nose, puts the car on drive and takes her back to the office.
He walks her to the entrance of the building and holds the door open for her.
“See you soon?”
“See you soon” She replies. He leans in and brushes her cheeks with a light kiss. “Just needed one for the road.”
She stares at him with a smile.
“There it is, that light in your eyes.” he points at her eyes.
She shakes her head nudging him away and disappears into the building. He laughs turning and then leaving.
