Something Good

13.A Heart to Heart

Andrew's P.o.v

June was siting with me in the table across the table Liam and Becky were sitting. I noticed Liam and Becky were normal again.They both were laughing and talking about something. They both were very jovial. I was kinda restrictive and reserved when it comes to talking. I rarely open up to people.

"Andrew? Why aren't you eating?"  June asked suddenly.

Her question shook off me from my thoughts.

"Uhh..what?"  I blinked.

"Are you with me? What are you thinking?"   She asked again.

"Umm.. ya I am okay! I was watching them and felt happy they are back to normal." I replied pointing at Liam and Becky.

"Yeah me too, Their fights are too silly!"  She said laughing.

I was just watching her laugh like that and smile.Her smile can make anyone go weak in their knees.

"Can I ask you something?"  She asked suddenly.

I was nervous thinking what she might ask?

"Why do you have an English accent if you are an American?"  She asked looking curious.

I bust into laughter.

"What!!?!?! That's a real question!"   She exclaimed.

"I am originally from London, UK"   I answered.

"My relatives still live there, Our family business is also there."    I added.

"I thought Mitchell Private enterprise is your family business?"   She asked looking confused.

"It is! One of my family business!"  I exclaimed.

"Whatttt?!!!!?!"  She exclaimed

"So You are like a billioner!"   She arched her eye brows.

"I am not! My dad is though, I wanna do something of my own in life!"    I defended myself.

She was impressed I could tell by the way she was looking at me.

"You wanna be a social worker?"  She asked remembering our conversation from the previous day.

"Yeah I do!"   I replied.

"Well, your dad already owns many charitable institutions right?"   She asked eyeing me closely.

"Yeah, I wanna open schools for the disabled children, want to help elderly people who are without homes or provide any other kind of aid and still there are many people who lead difficult lives."   I answered politely.

"You have beautiful dreams!"   She said smiling.

"I am sure someday, I ll make them true!"   I said looking at her with a smile.

"To Dreams!"  She raised the glass of red wine near her.

"To Dreams !"   I joined her.

I have had a heart to heart with someone. And it felt amazing. This is the first time I have had a meaningful conversation with a girl.

"Now may I ask you something?"  I started off slowly.

I held her hands slowly.

She looked at me never shifting her gaze from my eyes.

"I have been meaning to ask this for a while so hear it goes!"  I said without shifting gaze.

"Would you June Paxton want to be my Date for the Ball?"  I asked eyeing her closely.
