Chapter--14
DATING RYAN
Angelina
"Your eyes look beautiful." Ryan compliments me from across the table and I smile at him.
Going on this date seemed an appropriate idea but now when I hear it's not how I had the impression in my mind. I thought I would be too happy, a little nervous and unconfident, but happy. It isn't like that.
Just as I smile I remember about Liam. I remember I am homeless. I remember that I am jobless too. Even though Archer begged me not to quit but I did. I guess I thought if everything is changing than my workplace should too.
"Angie, are you okay?"
I shake my head and smile back at him.
"I am good." I shake my head again and add, "And thank you for the compliment."
He frowns and then smiles at me. I know I am weird. After mom and dad, I have lost my charm and I am not popular anymore. Is Ryan seeing me now?
I look closer to his green eyes and then the blur. Next, I see again see deep and dark eyes.
Fuck you, Ethan.
Just leave my mind.I groan them regret. Ryan is totally uncomfortable now and that's making me uncomfortable.
"I need to go to the loo." I fumble with my words and stand up without him consenting with me. Not that he would have stopped me but where are my manners. Oh yes, I am a total mess. So it went away.
I make my way to ladies' room after enquiring for direction to one of the waiters. Just when I reach I palm the counter and take a deep breath.
"Will I ever be able to confront a man to love him?"
It wasn't hard to talk to Ryan earlier. I knew he liked me but now when he us trying to come into my world I want to run away with it. It's frustrating and stupid at the same time.
Ryan is a good man. And he is a gem who makes any lady's knee go weak. But why I am not happy about it?
I gulp at the thought and look up myself in the mirror. Dark red lips and my light blue eyes shadowed with a blue shimmering liner.
Do I really look beautiful?
Are my eyes really looking beautiful?
I shake my head and laugh. If I hadn't acted a slob it was better.
"You should go out and face it. You won't get a better man than Ryan. You know how happy he made Mirinda. You would love him. "
I smile back at my reflection, straighten up and strut out with all the confidence I could muster.
I sit and then smile at him. I look at his now concerned face which isn't smiling now. Isn't it a good sign?
" Are you okay Angie? "
" I am very happy Ryan. I am happy to see your face full of concern for me. I am happy that we are having dinner together." I say.
His eyes begin to shimmer and I could see chest swell. If I am doing that to him then I am up for it.
" I am happy about it too Angie. " He reaches over to my hand and palm it. I flinch and stiffen but slowly relax as he rubs the upper of my hand.
"You should eat now. Food is real pissed to haven't got enough attention. "
