"It's fine" She interrupted him, that sweet tone appearing once again making his mind change in a spiral. The car came to a halting stop, moving the interior ever so slightly as it pulled to a raised curb."Thank you very much!" Through her pink, plush lips, sincerity was spoken. The cold metal she gripped with her soft hands, helped her to open the black car door with care, along with her feet soon after swinging out and to be planted in front of a brick building. Sending a poof noise in return of a thud from the door closing through the surrounding space, the dark colored car still there in the silence until she made sure to disappear.
Stray hairs draped across the front of her face, helping to make her blend in even more and the shallow heals of her shoes tapped on the hard wood leading to the open door, soon an eager greeting arriving to her. Returning the shared smile, the almost non existent dimples she had creased into her cheeks, showing for only a split second.
Being guided to a seat immediately, she was lead through a maze of tables and chairs, letting her get a good glimpse at the different nationalities, métier, sexuality and what she can imagine creed. The atmosphere having diversity as its feel.
She took a seat at a small and clean table she was brought to, her body lowered itself onto the hot metal chair. Temperatures outside and the feeling of devilish heat tried to creep through the long pants covering her legs. As if the sun was baking the chair in all its glory.
The said sun setting in the distance. Color wheels but to shame with all the contrast playing across the sky.
Sitting there alone she was stuck with several thoughts when she had managed to hear the familiar voice, yet in most instances, it would be impossible over the random chatter of others that filling the restaurant. Her body turning the moment indeed she did hear it. Seeing a recognizable face flattering a red lip.
Her cheeks scrunched up into pink puffs, not being able to help it, along with a half hidden smile spawned across her face when the lady walked closer and closer towards their table. Taking her jacket off in the process, the hot weather was becoming too much.
Dustin gave the lady a tight hug, adding even more warmth. There were a few dark stands wrapped through the woman's ponytail that swayed across the arms wrapped around her in a delicate manner.
"Hello love!" Their heads resting next to each other's as the woman first spoke. The voice soothing Dustin. As she pulled away from her, she got a reminder of how much she was missed. The facial features and the genuine smile she saw was enough to tell her that, but it was soon to be even more obvious.
"How was your little weekend trip?" Changes were in the lady's voice, like a button now on enthusiastic; truly excited to hear about the short time Dustin was away.
"It was good. Dad practically left me there, but besides that, it was very nice." Dustin's now soft voice was entangled with humor. The huff she let out after she spoke was more of a laugh.
"Also, I of course didn't go into the meeting, but dad seemed excited after, telling me about the cars." Dustin's eyes twinkled as she recited while watching the sky, trying to think clearly of what had recently played out.
"The headquarters were beautiful also, they wanted to give me a tour, so I went." Her lips sipping water through the colored straw floating in her water, along with a lemon wedge slowly dripping its juices down the frosted class as she finished the sentence.
"That sounds very nice!" The woman added afterwards, making sure to hear every word being said even with her eyes scanning through the menu.
"Thats about it. Not too much happened, what happened here?" Dustin asked once she got the chance, wanting to equally hear about her times. Dustin's attention still in the slightest, swaying to the side when she thought about the recent trip.
Once she asked, her guest let out a chuckle. The woman's laughs becoming softer before she spoke, shoulders shrugging, "Lots of stuff.".
Dustin's gaze was hard. Trying, wanting to read her. She knew that answer was too vague for the current liking she had.
"Well the whole time I was there, I kept wondering why neither of you have told me about where we're going. I'm being left out of the loop!" Dustin told, not mad at all. The trust bond they had was beautiful, but it was getting to a point where she was getting eaten away by borderline immature curiosity.
"I know love...I know." Both of them shook their heads. One in disagreement, one in pure amusement. Dustin starting to get crushed by wonder.
