Once we made it to Bella's Bistro, there was a big line outside of the restaurant.
"Is it always this busy? The city is pretty small, so it's hard to believe that so many people would be in this one place. Are there not any other places to eat around here?" I asked Eliza as we walked up to the corner building.
"I might have mentioned something about us coming here in the Vine…." Eliza said, looking away from me shyly.
She was all about having everyone seeing us together, and there was nothing wrong with that. I was used to being the center of everyone's attention, and this was supposed to be her night. If Eliza wanted to be surrounded by chatty women while we ate, so be it. The little women had done a lot for me since I had arrived in this world, even if we had a rough start.
"Eliza! So good to see you! We have a center table waiting for you, as you requested!" A waitress in a black skirt and white shirt called as we walked up to the front of the line.
