Lena's: POV
I arrived at the restaurant and texted Stef the address to the place l was at
I let the waiter know. There was another person joining me shortly
So I ordered me a glass sparkling water with Lemon. He placed a menu onto the table, l looked through my email. And I saw the reminder from the woman that's making channing and Amar'e's dresses, letting me know about their dressed appointment is at 5pm. I looked at my watch. It's was 1:00pm, l took a deep breath. Maybe
She got stuck in the traffic, l sat there looking over the selections. The food supposed to be good, hi Lena I'm sorry I'm late it was piled up on the instate. Stef says after taking a sip of her water, l brought you these
Stef hands me a bouquet of pink roses
There beautiful Stef. Lena says
I know we started on a bad foot
Lena stops Stef from continuing
That's water over the bridge,
This right here is a step in the right direction. Lena tells Stef, I'm sorry once again, Stef said to Lena
Lena has her hands folded in her lap
The waiter comes and takes their orders. Lena orders a garden salad
And Stef gets a turkey bacon club
With lettuce and tomato toasted
On wheat bread. The waiter took our menus, and left our table. We talked till our meal came. I sat there listening intently, until the waiter brought over our meal. Stef l hope you don't mind, I always pray over my meal before eating. Lena says
It's ok honestly. I say the blessing over my lunch with my eyes closed
Once I'm done, l poured salad dressing over my garden salad
And start eating. I look up to see Stef staring at me, what Lena States
Do you know when you blush your cheeks turn red. Stef tells me
No it doesn't and l smile
See l told you. Stef replies
I am actually enjoying myself
The check came, l reached in my bag
And get my credit card out. I put it in the in booklet and handed it back to him. Stef give me a look. Like she wasn't expecting me to pay the bill
Stef can I ask you something
Lena asks Stef. Love you can ask me anything. Stef replied, what was the last time somebody took you out and treated you right, Lena's waiting for Stef's response. I was always the one who picked up the tab, at dinner
Stef replies. Well I'm the type of woman who likes to spoil my partner
I am a true romantic. Who celebrates anniversaries, birthdays and so on
Lena let's Stef know how she is
Oh so where still on for Friday night
But this time I'll pay since I ask you out. Stef smiles. Stephanie your a very beautiful woman when you smile
Lena says, your just saying that
Stef chuckles. No I'm serious Lena sees Stef's not use to compliments
