Date & Dinner

Finally they arrive at the restaurant. This is a new restaurant and many peoples come to taste it so its always full, luckily Dave already made a reservation.

"Welcome Mr, are you already make reservations?" one of the waiters ask to Dave when they enter the restaurant.

"Yes, table for 2 under Dave name," Dave answer, the waitress check the list then he bring us to the private area.

"Here it is sir," he invite them in and let them sit before give the menus.

Both Dave and Anna are looking for the menus, then they order it, after that the waitress go to proceed the order.

It's little awkward for the two of them, but then Anna say something to lift up the mood: "mmhh, thank you for bring me here, I always want to try this resto, but its always full."

"No problem, I'm happy if you're happy," Dave said with smile in his face.

That smile making Anna heart flutter, she always love that smile, so she reply with smile too, and she don't know that her smile making Dave heart beat so fast too.

"So...urm...is there anything you want to talk to me Dave? Since you ask for this dinner," Anna ask him while playing with her glass.

Dave chuckles a little, he never know that Anna will ask him straight forward like this, he take a breathe and say: "I never know you can be straight forward with your question. There're a lot if things I want to talk with you, but before that let's us eat first." Anna just nod for his answer.

After 15 minutes their foods finally coming. The foods are looking so good and delicious, mostly it's Anna fave foods, and Anna happy with it.

"Wow, I'm impressed you didn't forget my fave foods," Anna said while she munching her food, she give a small smile to Dave.

"Well, I know you so well I think, that's why..." he doesn't continue it, just look at Anna with intense gaze, but then he continue to eat.

That's gaze make Anna feel little awkward, but she try to hush it, and continue to eat again.

"Mmmhhh, the foods are so good, I'm happy with it," Anna said with her smile.

"Glad you're happy," Dave said back to her. Before Anna can say anything, Dave talk again: "Anna, what do you exactly feel about me? I mean now, and for this past 6 years."

Anna silent for a while, then she say: "it's a hardest time for me to forget about you, but I cannot forget you, I just try my best to settle it and make my heart happy without you, but deep inside it's still hurt."

Dave is listening to it, he closes his eyes for while, take his breathe, he somehow feel so suffocated and hard, he never know that he will hurt Anna like this, and he feel so sad because of it.

"Actually, I don't know what to say, I messed up our relationship, my ego was too big back then, I left you, making you suffer until now, but I never ever forget you," Dave tell his true feeling to Anna.

Anna can see the sadness on Dave face, she sigh before talking: "I don't know why you must feel so sad about it now, because it's already over, and now I just need to move forward and forget the past."

"So, you mean that you will forget about me and you don't want to have anything with me right now beside work?" Dave asking her and gaze to her.

Anna sigh, she doesn't want to answering that statement or question, but she knows Dave so well, he won't stop to ask, after thinking for a while, Anna finally say: "what I mean is, I'm willing to forget what happened 6 years ago between us, forget the reason why you left etc and start to move on and settle to this present and future."

"Mmm...so that's mean you will accept me again?" Dave ask again with sparkling eyes.

"Sigh...right now I'm just going to be friend with you, let's take it slowly, I need to settle my heart first, but I won't draw myself again from you, that's all I can say," Anna look at Dave when she said it, because she want Dave to understand her.

Dave in the other side just nod, he understands how Anna feeling about all of this situations and he promise himself to make everything right. If Anna want it slowly the he is willing to try that.

After that conversations the dessert come and they start to taste it, they're sharing about their life all this time, what happened to each other for this past 6 years and Dave tell Anna too about the project after he left him. Finishing their dessert and Dave go to pay for the bill and ready do leave the restaurant.

"Do you want to stroll around the park before we go home?" Dave asking Anna when he see a park near Anna home.

Anna just nod and smile, so Dave is directing his car to the park. When they're reaching the park, Dave go out and open the door at Anna side, then both of then start to walking around the park.

They sit on the swings and Dave just told Anna  a jokes, Anna really enjoy his jokes and laughing non stop.

"I love when you're laughing and smiling like this," Dave suddenly said it, he then stand up and walk to Anna said, he bend over a little and peck Anna cheek.

Anna quite surprised but she just smile, after that Dave ask Anna to go, he drive to Anna house and said goodbye. There's something that going to change for sure for their relationship and Dave know it.
