... Julian noticed that Shawn was hesitating with something, she was about to encourage him when he spoke,

"Julian ....." and he was cut off by the waiter asking for orders, once they gave their orders Julian asked him to continue what he was about to say but Shawn waved it off saying he just wanted to know whether she liked this restaurant or not. Julian got a feeling that this was not what he wanted to say but regardless she said she liked it.

They spent the rest of their time enjoying the meal and having a small talk in between; getting to know each other a little more. Overall the date went smoothly without a hitch until the bill came. Julian grabbed the bill and was about to pay when Shawn said that as a gentleman who brought her on a date, he is responsible for handling the bill before reaching towards the bill.

Julian knew that this might escalate a bit and she wanted to show him that she was not like one of those typical girls. So she leaned forward towards his lips and just when Shawn thought she will peck him, she flicked his nose. Shawn sat there frozen processing what happened, Julian paid the bill.

Shawn was broken out of his frozen state when he heard the waiter laugh lightly before leaving. Turning his gaze towards her, glaring and pouting in disapproval but saw her innocent expression and let it go.

They left the restaurant a took a stroll in the night, eating ice-cream on their way; thankfully this time Shawn paid the bill.

Dropping her home he pecked her forehead saying, "Goodnight! I had a lovely time and I am looking forward to our dates in the future".

At the same time, Hiran was seen smiling and looking out from the window while clicking pictures. Julian was happy because she found out that unlike other guys who do all this stuff without heart and just to get the girl, Shawn did it with sincerity taking interest in doing it and putting thoughts into every little thing. He actually liked doing this for his precious person and Julian liked him even more for this.
