“Old habits indeed.” I forced a smile

“I still do that sometimes, when I am alone mostly.” He said

“I do that too,” Jessica added

“It's interesting how it just happens involuntarily.” He said

“Yeah, I did that once in a board meeting when I was thinking hard.”

Jeremy chuckled softly

“I did that once too and from then on I try to remind myself not to.”

“I did that when I was presenting one of my ideas, someone asked a tough question.” Jessica laughed

I smiled. Jeremy had this aura around him, calm, collected, and peaceful. Not sure if that was the real him but that's what he showed Jessica and me.

“You ladies are creative, I like what I heard.” He said

“Well, thank you,” Jessica said, walking to Jeremy and standing in front of him.

“And what meals would you like to see us cook here?” She asked

“I like Mexican. Some seafood as well.” He replied

Did he like seafood? Who the hell likes marine life as food, goodness.
