Chapitre 234: Unspoken questions

In another part of the city, another couple was out for dinner. Was it a date? Technically, yes. But in her mind, it was only a friendly date. There was nothing romantic about going out with him to show him around the city.

In all honesty, she wanted the night to be full of hearts and flowers. She wished Lance to say that he was here for her. She dreamed that they would fall in love and live happily ever after. 

"Don't you like the food?" Lance's voice penetrated her consciousness, rousing her out of her trance.

He had been observing her since he first saw her walked into the restaurant. He offered to pick her up from her apartment, but she insisted that she meet him instead.

Something was different about her. She was not the same girl he met back home. Although she was as beautiful or more than before, her aura had changed.

"I do. I am just not that hungry." She excused herself, realizing that she had been zoning out.
