What is Love? {COMPLETE}

《21》

~》Third Person POV《~

"Would you like some more time to think about your order?" The waiter asked

It was Wednesday and now Normani and Dinah are seated in one of the most fanciest restaurants

Normani did not tell Lauren she was meeting with Dinah, maybe she was planning on telling her later...

"No. Two steaks with a side of potato salad" Dinah answered as she closed the menu and handed it to her waiter

"Actually I'll have the shrimp pasta" Normani interjected

She felt as if Dinah was still trying to control her and she did not like that one bit

"Okay. And two glasses of your most expensive wine" Dinah said

"We only sell those by the bottle" the waiter answered

"Then give me the bottle" Dinah snapped

"Dinah" Normani scolded before apologizing to the waiter who nodded and walked off

"You know if you are gonna take me out to dinner the least you can do is have respect to the person serving us" she added

"The only person that has my respect is you...I want you back" Dinah said

"Dinah...please"

"I'll even negotiate the terms...I'll go to therapy or whatever it is that ends up with you by my side again I'll do it" Dinah said truthfully

"I don't think us being together is a good idea especially now" Normani answered. Her mind going back to Lauren and her daughter

"And therapy won't change who you are deep down inside. I'm telling you I've witnessed that. You say you'll change just to have me beside you again but I know that's not true." She added

"But it is. We don't have to live by the rules anymore. I can get rid of the play room, we can sleep in the same bed and-"

"Dinah we can't" Normani said sternly

"Why not?" Dinah asked, hurt evident in her voice

"Because I don't think you are capable of raising our child together" Normani confessed and Dinah's face turned to confusion

"What'd you mean our child? We don't have a kid" Dinah stated

"Yes we do. She's almost 2 years old...she looks just like you" Normani whispered

Dinah sat there shocked at the news

The rest of the dinner was quiet as they just ate and looked out the window. Eventually Normani had to go home

"Can I see her?" Dinah asked as the two walked out of the restaurant

"I have a picture on my phone...one minute" Normani answered as she pulled out her phone

She went to the album of the one year old and showed Dinah the photos. Dinah's eyes looked at the phone screen, she took in every detail of Aryah and Normani was right, she was a spitting image of Dinah

"Were you ever gonna tell me?" Dinah found herself whispering

"Of course I was but not any time soon. Dinah I don't want to seem like I'm asking you to change that's the last thing I want but...that's our daughter and I want her to grow up seeing love, not stone cold glare even though you love her. Not only that but what am I will gonna tell her when she asks about her other parent? I can't tell her anything cause I don't know anything about you" Normani said having a heart to heart conversation
