On the friday I was meant to go on a date with Lex, he called me to ask if I was ready and I told him definitely. We had chatted over the phone before that day to meet at "Ace", it was a classy restaurant that was located a few metres away from the school.
I was wearing a long red dress, I had my hair braided in which I styled to make it attractive. I wore a silver necklace and earrings complemented with a pair of silver sandals. Within me I was happy that I would see him again because we haven't met each other since we last saw at Lawrence's birthday party.
I entered into the restaurant and took a few glance around before I finally saw Lawrence sitting at a corner of the restaurant. I let out a small grin on sighting him in which he waved to notify me that he had seen me.
As I walked towards him, he stood up to welcome me to the table. He then helped in moving the sit backwards and placed it back gently so I could sit. I thought, "Hmmm, a gentle man indeed". I said, "thank you" in appreciation.
He had me order for what I wanted. "Fried rice with chicken please, also, a bottle of water", I told the waiter. Lex ordered for same.
We ate quietly as he continued to stair in my eyes occasionally. I loved that but was shy and just smiled back. As we ate he asked me some other questions about myself and he also told me some things about himself which we hadn't discussed on phone. He made me laugh to some of his jokes like he always did whenever we were speaking to each other through a phone call.
