Kapitel 29: Chapter 29

There were three people standing by the door of the restaurant, one of whom was the manager. He was astonished when he and Hugo were greeted and led into the restaurant. The interior was sparsely decorated, but it was elegant and sophisticated. There were light draperies and curtains all over the glass walls, but they had been pulled back. When they got to the table, which had a vase of fresh flowers as a centerpiece, Javier felt as if his breath had been taken away at the sight of the beautiful garden outside. He could also enjoy the sparkling lights of the high-rise buildings across the ocean. He was no princess, but he thanked Hugo for pulling out his chair for him. It was such a sweet gesture, after all.

“Wow. This…this is out of this world.”

Hugo puffed up his chest a little. “Do you like it?”

“I loveit.”

“Good.”

Javier gasped when Hugo presented him with a bouquet of dahlias, which had been hidden underneath the table all along. He scented the flowers and smiled at Hugo.
