"Be ready at 7 pm"

he texted me.

After no contact for three days.

Maybe this is how it feels like to be the other woman..

I feel a little sad but then again become happy because we're going to spend time together.

I need to manage my mom somehow.

I know it's going to be easy since she doesn't pay any attention to me. I'll just lie and say that I'm going to a sleepover.

"Where will you pick me up from?" I text back.

"Meet me a little far away from our neighbour..near the cafe I'll pick you up in my car okay sweetheart?" He texted back after 5 minutes.

Oh my god...he called me sweetheart.. I feel like I'm floating.

"Okay..darling" I text back and throw my phone away and cover my face as I blush and giggle.

It's almost 7 pm. I'm wearing a black slip dress as the venue is a very expensive restaurant out of town..so that no-one recognises us.

I put on a black hoodie and sweatpants over my dress so my mom doesn't get suspecious.

I get to the cafe where he said he's gonna pick me up.

I knock on his window and he opens the car door for me.

I get inside and close the door.

"Stella..you're wearing black hoodie and sweatpants..not that you don't look absolutely gorgeous but um I thought you were gonna wear something um fancy because we're going to a nice restaurant." He said hesitantly not wanting me to get offended.

"Wait wait" I say as I pull my sweatpants down.

"Stella! We have a lot of time for that we don't have to do stuff in the car please calm dow-" he said

"Shut up" I cut him off with a laugh.

"Here look" I smile.

"Oh..wow you..you look absolutely breathtaking my lady" he says in awe.

"Thank you, gotta be sneaky" I say with a smirk.

"Smart girl" he says as he drives towards our destination with his one hand on my thigh.

This feels like a dream. I hope he divorces his wife soon.

"Is your wife at home today?" I ask.

"Oh yeah surprisingly she yes" he says with a sad chuckle.

"It's okay you'll get divorced soon and we can be officially together" I say while I put my hand on his.

He smiles.

After a long drive we reach the restaurant and I look around in awe.

"This place looks so expensive" I thought to myself.

We sit down across from each other at our book table.

He orders himself a drink and a lemonade.

"Hey I wanna drink too!" i whine.

"You're not old enough baby" he says laughing.

"Oh so im old enough to date you but not drink huh?" I say crossing my arms with a frown.

"Aww you look so cute when you're angry..and yes the age of consent is 18 and of drinking is 21 sweetheart" he says smiling.

After eating and talking we get out of the restaurant.
