Capítulo 140: Whenever

"Ahem…" Andrew caught the couple's attention and Abi's father began to speak. 

"So, Alexander… how did you meet my daughter?" he asked, looking expectant and curious. The old couple looked at them with such curiosity as well. How did Abi find this very fine young man? Was it love at first sight for both of them? It was only been a few days since she went and lived in the city.

There were many questions in their eyes, but Andrew's question jolted Abi that she didn't notice how hard she had gripped Alex's shirt under the table. How could she tell them the story of their first meeting? 

Abi nervously swallowed as she looked at Alex. The man was still chewing his food as he, too, stared back at Abi. 

Once he swallowed the food in his mouth, he looked at Abi's dad as he opened his mouth to speak, making Abi's heartbeat accelerate.
