Simeone POV
CENTRIL HILL, NWR //CASA PEDRO
As planned, during lunch today I was to meet with Giselle to have a drink. She let me choose since she's new to town so I picked Casa Pedro one of my favorite spots in the entire state. Their food were 7/10 but their drinks were 10/10.
As I waited for her to arrive, I sipped on a Auga Fresca which isn't an alcoholic beverage. I was practicing abstinence as a way to rebuild myself and my relationship with God.
I check the time on my watch that said 11:56 and just as I looked up, in she came making a show stopper entrance. She was dressed really nice too; dressed in a all green suit, trousers, blazer and even her shoes and purse matched. Her hair pulled back in a puff and the closer she got the more I admired the bold eye color, glossy red lips on her beautiful diamond shaped face.
I love a woman that could dress.
"Hey," I stood up and greeted her.
"Sorry I'm late," we side hugged and I pulled out her chair, "Thank you. I'm so sorry I'm late—"
"It's alright, you here now so—"
"There was traffic on the route I took."
"Oh you drove?"
"No I got an uber, I haven't been able to check out any cars at a dealership just yet."
"Well maybe one day, I'll take you. Instead of lunch."
"Yea, that'll be nice."
"In the mean time, you can ride with me back to headquarters."
"That would be nice. Thank you. Did you order anything?"
"Just something to drink and snack on, some churros. I'm not really a big fan of the food here, there drinks tho, I love."
"Oh, I see. Then I guess I order a drink as well and we could chat."
She called for the waiter and placed a order for the finest wine. Again, not a drinker but if I was drinking, I would've taken me a sip because it did look good.
"Would you like to try it?"
"No thanks, I'm not drinking. I'm actually practicing abstinence."
"Oh cool, how has it been so far?"
"It's hard. I live in a world with beautiful women, example you. But, it's for a better outcome so I can put up a fight."
"That's nice you don't hear much men practicing abstinence much."
"I know I know. Temptation."
"It's hard yea," she sipped her drink.
"So tell me about yourself, where are from?"
"Mmhm...I was born here."
"Central Hill?"
"No, in state. I was born in Belemre but I moved to Swamp Rivera with my birth father, and sort of grew up there. You?"
"I'm from Northwood Rivera born and raised. I'm from Northeast and have lived there most of my life?"
"Oh so you went to school at Northeast huh? Where they were warring with Southeast?"
