James Pov:

"Sara please just one time, I promise you will have a nice time.' I said begging her to say yes.

"Mr.Grant.." she started but I cut her off.

"You can just call me James." I said waving my hand.

She sighed and continued. "James, I told you I am not interested. Don't you understand?" she said sighing again.

"Come on Just one date, what possibly could happen? If you don't want it to be a date just think of a meeting with a client. We can go some restaurant and discuss about the new project we are working on right now." I said hoping that she would say yes.

I have been trying to ask her out on a date for a quite a time now but every time I ask her out she always says no. I know what you're thinking I'm already married but she doesn't have to know that and I don't give a shit about the marriage I as forced into.

After the conversation with him more than a week ago we completely started to ignore each other. He still comes home pretty late every night but I didn't ask him anything about it. I have my own idea. If he wants to fool around then I can also.

She is looking at me in the eyes and I tried to look as innocent as possible. After few seconds she sighed and I knew I won.

"Fine." She said and I mentally fist pumped.

"I will pick you up at 5" I said and she nodded before leaving my office. I sighed and sat on my chair.



"Hey" I said after she sat on the passenger side.

"Hi" she replied.

"So, where are we going?" she asked.

"You can choose" I said and her face suddenly lit up.

"Yeah, let's go to the new Restaurant which opened few weeks ago. I heard the food there was really good. It's just few minutes from here." she said and I nodded.

"Ok then" I said and started the engine.

Exact 10 minutes later we reached the restaurant she told me about and I parked the car outside. We both got out of the car and I looked at the restaurant.

The restaurant looks really nice, small but nice. We both entered inside and a woman I think same age as Sara sat behind the reception. She smiled at us and stood up from her seat.

"Hello, Good evening." She said and we nodded.

"Table for two please" I said and she nodded.

She led us inside and showed us the table. We thanked her and took our seat.

"Our waiter will be here in a minute to take your orders, here" she told us and gave us the menus.

"Thank you" Sara said and the woman smiled at us before leaving our table.

"It's really looks nice" Sara said looking around.

"Yeah" I agreed and looked at the menu to choose what I should order.

I don't have enough time though. I was looking at the menu when I heard his voice.

"Hello, good evening. I am going to be your waiter for today. Would you like to order or you wan..." he stopped midway when I looked at him from my menu.

He stood there like a statue and dropped his note pad he was holding. He looked at me and then his eyes fell on Sara. He then looked at me again and the pain he was having is evident in his eyes. I quickly looked away from him.

"Umm... I'm sorry" he said and bent down to take his notepad.

"So, would you guys like to order now or you want some more time?" he asked looking at Sara. His voice is shaking.

"Yeah, I already decided what I want. James?" she asked and looked at me.

I looked at her and nodded. We gave our order and he noted it down before leaving our table.

Sara then started to talk about our new project but I don't listen to anything she says. My mind was somewhere else. I never felt guilty in my life but right now I feel worse than that. So, all those days he was working here as a waiter. That's why he comes home late at night. I shouldn't have said such things to him.

Ten minutes later he returned back with our food and set it on the table.

"Enjoy your food" he said and left without giving me a glance. I won't blame him.

I was looking at the direction he left when Sara broke me out of my thoughts.

"Mmm..James?" she asked. I blinked and turned towards her.

"Huh?" I asked.

"The food is here. Let's eat" she said and I nodded.

We started to eat our food and we are halfway through it when Sara spoke again.

"James why are you silent? You never has been a silent person" she said smirking.

"Just feeling tired I guess." I asked.

"Mm, the food is really good don't you think?" she said.

I was about to answer her but choked with my food by her next comment.

"And the waiter also." She said and grinned.

I glared at her but I obviously don't know for which reason.

She rolled her eyes at me and said "Don't look at me like that I am just kidding" she said and added "But he does look cute though".

I sighed and dropped my head continued to eat my food.

We finished our food and Sara called waiter for the bill but this time a new guy came to give us the bill. I frowned but didn't say anything. I paid for our food and left the place. Before I go out I turned and looked inside hoping to see him but no luck.

I shook my head and left. We both walked towards my car and took our seat.

"So, where to next?" she asked.

I thought for a second before I gave her a reply.

"I will just drop you at your place if that's OK with you." I said and she frowned at me.

"Are you sure?" she asked.

Am I? I don't know. But I don't want to with her right now that's for sure. I nodded and started the engine before driving towards her place.
