COOKING WITH A HEART ❤

2

The following day I had a dinner date with Maura at my condo.

Maura please forgive the mess. I am packing and getting rid of stuff to donate to the Sacramento State University homeless project. Jane my identical twin sister helps raise money for it. Identical? Yes identical . When are you moving into your place?This weekend. I wish I could help you but I need to move out of Condo in two weeks. I am looking for a place to live myself. My landlord sold the condos to a developer who is making it into a strip mall. Maura I know we don't know one another. I told my brother Frankie about you and he did a background check on you. He was afraid that I would date someone who was after my monies again. I see. As you know, I won't go after your money. No you won't. I hope me being well off financially doesn't change anything about me? No it doesn't but was good to hear you don't need my money money. Anyway would you like to move in with me. You would have your own bathroom attached to your bedroom. I wouldn't charge much . Are you sure? Yes you would be helping me out and can help me with utilities. My mother won't be getting a key to this place . I wouldn't want her to walk in on you and scare you. Yes I would be honored. Here is my kitchen.

We made my nani Rizzolis raviolis with a nice salad with fpccacia bread I made earlier and took our first photo together.

I felt this above as I watched Jane cook.i had to turn around when Jane was making the sauce . It was her Nani Rizzoli recipe along with what Jane put in the ravioli pasta she made from scratch.

Jane may I turn around? Please do . I am sorry for coming late. I got held up on some lab work. The deputies needed my lab results up go arrest my biological father. Wasn't that hard to do-? No he knew he could get arrested. As your brother told you he is a mobster with Irish Mob. Paddy is your father. My career with Boston PD I arrested himself few times, but he always got out and found innocent .

We sat down in her dining room to eat dinner. After dinner, I helped her clean up and we for finally kissed while we watched the movie
notebook on cable.

Jane I better get going it's late and we still have to pack our places up. Here is a key, the alarm code and password along with the address . I will draw you a quick map of the house and put an x on your bedroom. You can bring your furniture but to be honest I have the bedroom furniture for all. What do you still need? Kitchen appliances, washer and dryer and dining furniture. Okay I have those. I would like to bring my mattress since its a sleep by number. The master bedroom has that too. I will see you tomorrow. Yes .

I walked Maura out to her car and kissed her. Sue opens her car door, gets in and leaves.

I called baby girl and Juanita and thank them. I tell them Maura will be my roommate but no one is to know we are seeing one another. They promise not to say anything. Baby girl says she and June my old business partner will be there to help me move on. Juanita said she couldn't because of the restaurant which I totally understood.
I ended my call and finished packing, took a shower and stayed awake thinking of Maura. I eventually nodded off to sleep.

I got home to my condo. My sister, her wife and my mother asked me how the date went?

It went well. I will be her roommate but please don't say anything to anyone just in case we don't work out. I just hope we can stay friends . We finished packing everything. I will be taking the big appliances, my mattress and the dining set and my bathroom stuff along with some other items. Katelyn since the box contents are labeled, I am going to put an X on what items the homeless project from the two colleges can pick up. You three decide what college gets what. Okay.

We finished around 11 and they left. I took a much needed shower and thought of Jane. I went to bed in the nude as usual unless it's that time of the month and nodded off to sleep.
