CHAPTER 07 - FOUL DATE
Song - Why'd you only call me when you're high? 
by Arctic Monkeys
~~TARA~~

We didn't speak a word through the ride. Really boring. But I occupied looking out the window as my usual car rides. I could occasionally feel Nico's gaze on me but I never bothered to look back at him. Horrible enough, he drives really slow. Normally I wouldn't mind, but considering how quiet this ride was, I would really have preferred a faster ride to relieve my car anxiety. 

I kinda started to rethink my decision of coming to this date with him. I mean what even was the reason. There was no way this guy was actually being serious about me anyway. He is just tryna fuck me and then just leave me. But I can't say no now. Ugh

Suddenly, we came to a halt as we reached the cafe. I loved this cafe'. It was dad's favourite. My parents and I would come here for breakfast everyday. Dad extremely loved the croissants. So did I. Especially the chocolate ones. 

As I was lost in the memories of my dad. I heard Nico say, "We're here."  I got out of the car, losing hope he might actually open the door for me. I walked in to the cafe' after him. he took us to the table. And in a few seconds a waitress came. She looked like a college freshman. The slutty type. 

"Hi there. What would you like to order?" she said looking straight into Nico's eyes while putting down our water and glasses on the table. And he was smirking at her. Whoa

"One slice of cheesecake and a latte for me. And for you Tara?" he spoke looking at me. 

"Oh uhm. I'll have a chocolate croissant and a latte as well." I said smiling at the waitress. But bitch completely ignored my gaze. She nodded while writing down our notes in a notepad. "I'll be right back with your order." she said leaving our table. I almost chocked on my water seeing her touch Nico's arm while walking away. Nico smirked in return, watching her hips sway away from our table. Gross. Didn't he know I was right there?

Then he cleared his throat. "Sorry I didn't speak through the ride. It was because if I did i wouldn't have anything to talk about here and that would just be awkward. I really wanted to say it already is but then I would just sound rude so decided not to give him the time of day. 

"Oh that's completely fine." I told him showing him the fakest smile ever. 

"So Tara, what are your plans now that we've graduated?" 

"I'm going to America to study culinary arts. I always wanted to open my own restaurant." It had been my dream. I was always interested in cooking. I would say I'm really good, because my parents and Stella always loved what I make. And Stella is super honest. She would tell me if it's bad. 

"Interesting but kinda cheap since we kinda thought you'd want to be a businesswoman like how your dad was." he said. 

"Well everyone has different dreams, no?" I replied feeling a bit hurt by his words.

"True. Well, I'm going to start my own business." he said feeling proud. 

"Nice. Good luck." I hoped I didn't sound too rude. 

In just a few minutes our food and drinks arrived and it was the same girl. As she kept the food on our table she had her chest pumped up, tryna show off her nonexistent boobs. I rolled my eyes at her. However, Nico was staring right at it. As if he could get anything from it.
