And of course we both looked very beautiful, we exited the time just now hitting 5:30 we will be an little early but that's an good sign at least, i held heidi's hand all the way there.

We arrived and heidi opened my door for me , i saw my fathers car and Marlows car i smiled and held heidi's hand walking into the restaurant walking too our reserved table i sat down beside heidi , pulled her chair closer too mine secretly before she sat down.

I held heidi's hand under the table and she caressed my knuckles it was an sweet gesture to start the conversation at the dinner table.

"What would you all like to order?" Carlos asked i looked at heidi "for the drink water please" i nodded and agreed. Yes water please i smiled and looked at my dad.

Marlow was at the other end of the table with his wife Veta and my dad was with my mom Charlotte at the other end Marlow is heidi's dad and Veta is heidi's mother.

Carlos leaned in closer to Marlow, lowering his voice. "So, Marlow, what's the next step in our plan?" he asked, his eyes sharp and focused. Marlow took a sip of his drink before responding, "We need to secure the shipment routes. If we can control those, we'll have the upper hand."

Meanwhile, Heidi and Veta were sharing a light moment. "Why did the scarecrow win an award?" Veta asked with a grin. Heidi giggled, "Because he was outstanding in his field!" They both laughed, their joy infectious.

Charlotte caught my eye and smiled warmly. She always had a soft spot for Heidi and me, and seeing us together seemed to make her happy. I squeezed Heidi's hand, feeling grateful for this moment of peace amidst the chaos of our lives.

As the conversation at the table continued, I couldn't help but feel a sense of belonging. Despite the dangerous world we were a part of, these moments of laughter and connection made it all worthwhile. The dinner party was more than just a gathering; it was a reminder that we were a family, bound by loyalty and love.

Now we all are too be very careful discussing our strategy at the table She looked at Marlow and carlos who are nose deep into the plan and then back at heidi and Isabella.

"yes i know love, we know better" Carlos said laughing i rolled my eyes and looked at my daughter isabella one last time i was getting curious too know what was between my daughter and heidi , i looked at veta and kicked my head at them Veta looked at them curiously too, i coughed laughing silently as me and veta spoke with our eyes , not our mouthes watching our two daughters curiously.

As the evening wore on, I couldn't help but notice the way Heidi and Isabella interacted. There was a certain warmth and familiarity between them that went beyond mere friendship. They shared secret smiles and whispered conversations, and I wondered if there was something more to their relationship. Were they just close friends, or was there a deeper connection forming between them?
