As you were making dinner, you couldn't help but overhear your daughter, Kara, ask Colby a question you've been waiting for her to ask.
"Dad, how did you and mommy meet?"
You smiles to yourself as Colby answers, "I am so glad you asked, sweetheart. Mommy and I have actually been waiting for you to ask this question."
You laugh to yourself, shaking your head as you walk back to the stove.
"Really?" She laughs, "My friend at school told me her mom met her dad when he was going to jail."
You can tell Colby is stifling back his laughter as he speaks, "I'm sure.. that wasn't the full case, but I can promise you, that's not how daddy met mommy."
You lean against the wall, smiling as you watch your daughter snuggle up against Colby's side, "Okay, I'm ready. Tell me the story!"
"Okay, so it was a few years ago. Your Uncle Sam and I stopped at this coffee shop before going to one of the places we went to explore." As Colby spoke, it was like just yesterday you remembered seeing him for the very for time.
"Hey." You smiled at you greeted your coworkers, "Has it been busy?" Rene shakes her head, "Not really. But I think a few more just walked in, I have to wash coffee off of my hands, can you take them?"
You nod, "Yes, no problem." You walked out, stopping in your tracks when you see a tall, darker hair guy standing at the counter with his blonde friend next to him.
"When mom first walked out, I was so confused, I thought I died and went to heaven." Colby laughs as Kara laughs and you roll your eyes, shaking your head as you go check on dinner.
"You thought mommy was an angel?" She laughs, "She is very pretty." Colby sighs, "She is very pretty isn't she. Okay, okay. So when she walked up, all I could do was stare at her. She probably thought I was some kind of weirdo."
You swallowed as you walked up, giving him a smile, "Hi, what can I get you?" The dark haired one stared at you, almost like he was unable to form words. You furrowed your brows and look at the blonde, "Does, he need a minute?"
The blonde laughs and nudges his friend, "Yo, Colby. Do you know what you want?"
Colby. You smile as he shakes his head, "Oh, shit. Sorry, um, ye-yes. I just- what do you recommend?"
You laugh slightly, "Um, I always get just a flavored coffee with cream and sugar, I like to keep it simple." He nods, "Can I just do that? Make it easy on you?"
