A Date Interrupted

Mei huffily ran to the sushi restaurant near where she lived. She was running late even though she lived only a couple minutes away. Shu was already seated at the counter at the front. 

As she walked in a watched him from a distance, her heart melted a little. They had been taking things slow and she was enjoying getting to know him. 

He looked tired though, his head was hanging low and his hair was slightly messy. He was wearing office-looking clothes, a white shirt and light grey pants that fir very well. His broad shoulders and trim figure looked extremely appealing.

Mei blushed at her own thoughts. She shook her head quickly as if to wish the thoughts away and walked towards him. 

"Sorry I'm late!" she exclaimed as she waved at him, smiling from ear to ear. 

Shu looked up at the sound of her voice, as his tired face broke into a huge grin! 

"What took you so long!" he joked with her.
