"So you mean to tell me he still hasn't called?"

"No, Q. Why would he? He has a family."

"But it was so obvious you guys liked each other."

"Maybe not." I shrugged.

It had been a month since the whole Millie situation. I was playing it cool but I really missed David. I hadn't talked to him since that day, so I guess he made his decision. I wasn't upset, I would never ask him to pick his family over me. But I was still hurt.

"Tem!"

"Huh?" I snapped out of my thoughts.

"I'm talking to you."

"I'm sorry Q." I slowed down my treadmill.

"How are you designs coming?"

"Surprisingly good." I raised my eyebrows.

"That's because you have no distractions."

"I guess so." I bit my lip.

"Ready to go? I wanna go to that vegan spot on the next block."

"Yeah. Come on."

"They have vegan burgers?" I tapped my lips.

"Yeah but I think imma get the wings."

"Of course."

"Are y'all ready to order?" The lady behind the register asked smiling.

"No. Um you can take whoever's behind us." We moved out of the way.

I immediately recognized the man who walked up to the register.

"Taz?"

"Taz?"
