บท 148: The magic was only beginning

"I told you. The food and the wine were as good as whatever the special was." She was not particular with food. Living with Jacky in their old apartment, she had learned to eat food in the carton or a wrap.

As a lawyer that was always on the go, a burger, burrito, or whatever food stand in the corner of the busy street was good enough lunch for her. She just wondered if it was the same with Alex.

"I also think so." He agreed with her as they buckled their seat belts and prepared to leave the premises. "I hope you genuinely enjoyed our first official date." Still amazed at the ability of the woman beside him to impress him with her simple actions.

"I did. Thanks for this night." She knew that it was one of the best nights that she had for a long time. The only time that she was able to laugh like that was with Jacky. She appreciated what Alex was doing to make her feel special.
