Romancing An Era

Part 3

" you have to go on a date with me " he stated with excitement. I looked at him confused,  like bro we just met . I stared at him for a few seconds and said " date? Like an actual date ?"

" Yes, I want to know more about you. You seem like an interesting person to me " meh. Interesting? And me. Hell no , sure he is upto something .
" Don't stare at me strangely I am not gonna eat you so just chill. We will meet tomorrow" I nodded and we exchanged our phone numbers
"Ok, see you tomorrow then " we waved at each other and I stared at him till he disappeared with his friend who came to pick him up.

I sighed and this time I just hope things will go right because whenever I try to connect with someone,  the fitting just don't set and I always end up as a side chick for everyone, not even a single relationship has gone right for me this far. But it's good to give it a try since I am sick of missing jake and trying to busy myself so to not think about him .

Let's see how it will go tomorrow.

I woke up with alarm ringing like no hell, I yawned and stretched my arms , " ahh why my neck pains everytime ?!" I grunted and massage my shoulders and neck to feel a little better.
"I should get up or otherwise I would be late for work "
I made my room and hurried towards kitchen to make a quick breakfast.
"Okay, now time to check what's for breakfast list for Monday " I scrolled my finger on my " food arrangement" paper which my mom sticked on the fridge as I have habit to not cook food and order online everytime. " Hmm,  tacos and orange juice." Wow seems like today will be a good day.

I quickly grabbed the veggies I like " hmm tomatoes, onion, cheese, coriander.." I mumbled to myself and started making tacos. I quickly grabbed the ice cubes from the fridge and poured orange juice , I alway love the sound of ice cube being thrown in the glass and mixing, it's good to have concentrated Orange juice.

I wore my office formal dress and drank my juice. " Ohh no it's late now I should hurry up" I grabbed my phone and ran towards my car and started the engine.

I was peacefully eating my tacos and listening to my favourite song "when will my life begin?" until an idiot destroyed this moment by calling me " ohh gosh I hate morning calls, why can't I just spend time with myself  " I angrily grabbed my phone and received

"Hello"
" Hi lisa, it's Phil "
"Phil? Oh hi "

" I hope I didn't disturbed you "

" Haha no no , so what's up?"  I asked cheerfully
" I wanted to inform you about our date.... You coming na ?"

" Ofc I will come , so which place you choosed?"

" I chose madela restaurant at 8 pm, you ok about place and timings?" He asked worried.

" Yes totally ok , anyways I am gonna complete all my work before 5pm "

"Ok then go to work, I will not disturb you anymore "

" Ok see you then "

                                                                                               ...........

"Uggh " I sighed . Finally my work is completed it was a lot more work then I expected , I had so much work on different projects and I had to switch task quite frequently which literally drains my brain.

I looked at my watch shoot it's already 6 pm !!! Means I have only two hours left. I think I should hurry up because it will probably take an hour to decide what to wear .

Back to lisa and her problems now I just can't choose between these two dresses-  one is black and other one is red , they both are my favourite and perfect for ocassion too but what will Phil like more-  red or black?
Enough now I am gonna go with black because I read somewhere boys like black more than red and Phil seems to be that of a guy who fits black aesthetic .

I arrived at the this restaurant which Phil told me about I never been in this café but I can tell by it's design and structure that it's gonna cost expensive. I hope I will have enough money to save my reputation.

I texted Phil to ask where he is . Ok he arrived , I should go in now. 

This place is really good , I can smell vanilla scent in the atmosphere I really like these type of scents. This place is really interesting there are quite few painting in the hall,  seems like resturant owner loves arts and paintings, I was fascinated by all this but slowly and suddenly I spotted Phil sitting near to glass window ha good spot for the evening. I thought to myself and went towards Phil

" Hey " he stood up and guided me to sit like a gentleman should
"Thank you " I mumbled . " I am very glad you came considering how busy you are as a person " he joked and I laughed . " Well, you are not the only one to say this but where did you get to know about my busy persona. Huh?" I looked at him suspicious.
" Chill lisa, it's not that I am tracking your schedules. Forgot that your best friend lives with me " he laughed , he is even more hotter when he laugh .

" You mean Jessy ? " He nodded smiling. " Wait, you resolved everything between you two " he nodded and said " yeah  the piece of advise you gave me that night has taken away my few nights to think only about you... and your advise ofc " I proceed to hug him tightly.

" Thank you so much for resolving all the things, I felt really bad seeing Jessy sad " he rested his chin on my hed while I snuggled closer to his chest and smelled his Cologne , it's fascinating, good , addicting.

I opened my eyes wide when I suddenly realised what I was doing I suddenly backed away and coughed blushing.
" Do you want to order now ? I am really hungry " I nodded not able to meet his eyes.

" Tortilla  soup and rainbow dessert  for both of us " waiter noted all the things and he bowed to us before disappearing in the aroma filled kitchen .

" Here's your order sir and ma'am "  we mumbled thank you to him and he left.

I started spurling my soup and I am sure i will come here again because this is literally the best restaurant, this soup is really comforting in these type of cold days , I was so concentrated on eating my food until I realised phil was staring at me.

" Umm.. is everything ok?" He looked at me nervously and said " well it depends on your reaction about my wish ,"
" your wish?" I looked at him confused .
" Can you explain to me clearly ?"

" Sure. But just promise me you will not freak out " I nodded while wiping my lips from the tissue paper and shifting all my attention from food to him.

What do you think Phil is going to ask lisa that will change her whole perception about Phil?
