Evelyn's POV
*

************
I walked away from Antonio as fast as I could. My heart was beating so fast it felt as if it would come out any second and my feet also became wobbly. I could still feel the warmth of his hand around my waist, the way he held me, the way he was looking at me and his mesmerizing scent that was so refreshing as well as something that made me feel kinda safe. My mind went back to the conversation I had with Sallie last night..what if it was true or maybe I'm thinking too much. I quickly took a glance at my watch and saw there was still 10 mins till the cafe opened and I'm sure everyone's already there. So I quickly made my way to the cafe. After reaching the cafe I wished everyone good morning and went back to get my apron. My mind was still roaming around what happened a while ago. I made myself a cup of iced tea and before Sallie could come up start talking about what happened yesterday I started drinking my tea. Just as I was about to finish up Sallie arrived and sat right in front of me. "Hey Evelyn.. guess what..you won't believe what I just saw on my way here to the cafe" she excitedly said. "What...what did you see?" "Well I saw Antonio Bianchi on my way here." I nearly spilled my tea as she said his name..

"he was probably on his way back after some morning exercise

"he was probably on his way back after some morning exercise..but why would he come to our neighborhood when there are so many good and well maintained parks in his area? " " I-I don't k-know.." I mentally faced palmed myself for stammering.

Soon customers started coming in and I got back to work collecting orders from all the tables and serving them their orders. My mind was still filled with the things that happened this morning but I tried to get it all out of my head because I was expecting something that won't ever be possible. He's a business Tycoon and here I am a waitress at a small coffee shop who lives with an abusive uncle.

Antonio's POV
***************
I was elated today. This is one of those rare days when I come to work with a good mood. I entered the office building and made my way towards the elevator while wishing everyone a good morning. It really was a good morning..at least for me it was. I saw the face of my employees looking all confused as probably it's the first time they've seen me be this happy.. I myself was a bit surprised as to how can I , Antonio Bianchi of all can be this happy. I was acting like a teenager in love.

I reached my cabin, opened my suit jacket and placed it on the back of my chair and went and stood near the window from where my angel's cafe was visible
