The moment the food arrived; I eagerly dove into my meal. I had chosen a T-bone steak with creamy mashed potatoes and sweet corn. The restaurant Nico selected was upscale. He ordered us two glasses of wine, which turned out to be sweet. I've always preferred sweeter wines, so I was thrilled with this choice. It was surprising to see Nicoló so relaxed; I was used to his typically arrogant demeanor, and this relaxed side was nice.

I gazed out thewindow, a smile spreading across my face as I took in the scene. The streetswere dark, but the streetlights cast a warm glow, illuminating the city.Snowflakes danced down from the sky, settling softly on the ground, and I foundmyself enchanted by the winter season. It always brought me a sense oftranquility and joy, especially with the holiday season upon us. Unfortunately,this year would be different; a large snowstorm had forced the cancellation offlights, leaving me unable to visit my parents for Christmas. 

The thought of spending the holiday alone made me sad, but I would try to make the best of it

The thought of spending the holiday alone made me sad, but I would try to make the best of it. My parents promised to send my gifts in advance, and I planned to make them my first stop once the storm cleared.

"So, what made you become a lawyer?"

I glanced up and swallowed the mashed potatoes in my mouth. Did he really want to talk? Taking a deep breath, I reached for my wine glass. "I wanted to become a lawyer because I found it intriguing. I've always had a passion for standing up for what's right, and I believed that pursuing a career in law was the perfect way to start."
