When Are Hands Met

Chapter 3

To say that A'hnesti was nervous was a understatment she never went with guys unless it was her brother, she was slowly starting to regret saying yes to the invite. 

"Ahny your a bad bitch you dont get nervous go in there with you head high like you own this bitch." she said talking to herself looking in the mirror putting on more lip gloss cause duh. 

She opened her car door wiping her sweaty hands on her dress and stepping out gracefully and started walking to the door, she stopped and turned around when she heard someone calling her name and there was oakley walking towards her.

"A'hnest!"  he said he was wear a cream colored nike tech with some white forces some of his tattoos were showing.

Yea that man is fine fine Ahny though looking him up and down. He did the same and Ahny acted like she didn't notice. She smiled and gave him a side hug. 

" Hi how are you i seee your coping me with the colors " she said smiling while walking towards the door as he opened it for her. 

"  What a coincidence and I'm doing better now that your here." he said with a grin and she let out a laugh. 

" corny much" she said smiling and he just laughed. They walked to the hosts table and got sat down almost immediately which kinda surprised her. They were led to a nice table next to the window with a good view of outside.

 " Hello I'm Mark and I will be your server for the day . What kinda of drinks are we wanting to start with."  he said with a really upbeat and cheery tone. 

" Ummm I'll do a sweet tea with lemon and a water with lemon aswell" Ahny said looking at him with a small polite smile in her face then turning to Oakley.

" I'll just do a water please " he said with his usaual straight face. 

"Ok I'll be right back with you drinks " and he walked away and the couple was engulfed in silence. 

The both smiled at eachother  " So tell me about yourself" Oakley said looking her dead in the eyes. 

" Well My name is A'hnesti Ida Leon but my friends call me Ahny, I'm 23 I own a clothing business which you know about and a Hooka Club with my cousin. My favorite colors are browns, greens, creames, and pinks. I have two siblings a older brother by two years and a younger brother by two years yes my mother planed it perfectly. Their names are Ahmad and Anthony. I think that's about it for basic info about me, how about you?" Ahny said keeping eye contact with him the whole time as he smiled listening and observing her the whole time , he loved the way her eyes lit up talking about her familiy and businesses . As he was about to speak the waiter came back with there drinks. 

" Ok here we go and are we ready to order" he said looking at the both of them. 

" Yes I think I am" Ahny said looking at Oakley and he nodded his head signaling that he was ready aswell, so she went ahead with her order. 

" I'll do the Farm Raised Tilapia with the side of rice and a ceaser salad extra ceaser dressing please" she said with a bright smile 

" I'll do the Salmon Talcoma with rice and asparahgus please and thank you"  he said and the handed out menus to the waiter and he walked away to go put in out order. 

" Ok back to are convo tell me about yourself Mr Oakley" Ahny said with a smile on her face. 

" Well my name is Oakley Ceasar Cartwright my friends call me Oak or Oaks though , I origanlly was born in the UK and moved to the states when I was 13, As you know I make clothing and I also own a couple clubs in LA and Miami. I have two younger brothers named Beau and Jude everything I do is for them, My favorite color is black and yea that's about it." He said his smile widening a little when talking about his siblings it made Ahny heart flutter. 

They continued talking about anything and everything until the food came and the stuffed ther faces literally. 

" So what made you want to start getting into the clothing business? " Oaks said still chewing on his food looking at her. 

Her eyes lit up she loves talking about her clothing business " So when I was in highschool wasn't really able to afford the newest outfits or shoes and plus it was harder to find something that fit my style being a plus size women. I always knew I want to do something for my community so I made came up with Raw Xpressions and it mainly focused on plus size woman at first we blew up and then we started selling regular sizes . Now we are branching off and starting a  mens line which I'm so excited about it. " she finished with a bright smile  on her face and Oakley sat there just staring in awe of how passionite she was. 

" So how about you why did start your business?"  she said with a questioning gaze while taking another bite of her food. 

" Umm its not as good as your reason but I just really liked tracksuits and  everyone was telling that with all the money I spent buying them I could just make and sell my own so I did and now i really love it" he said shrugging his shoulder  and Ahny just smiled at him. They finnished eating and talking the Oakley payed like the gentleman he is and walked her out to her car. 

" I really had a great time I wouldn't mind doing this again" she said with a shy smile  

 He smiled back " forsure I'll text you " opening her car door closing it as she rolled her window down. 

" ok ill see you tomorrow Oaks"       " Goodbye Ahny"  They stared at eachother for what felt like forever before Ahny pulled out the parking space and drove off, all she could think about was him.
