Meeting With Friends

"I wonder what took your brother so long to follow us?" Jacob declared, looking at the entrance of the coffee shop. "Maybe it's better to go back to the office. Will meet them along the way."

"Umm, wait a second. Can I talk to Angeline for a moment?" It was in Alexandro's eyes that he was begging.

The couple looked at each other, but Ethan arrived with Arabella before either of them could speak.

"Let them talk and be done with it. He will keep hankering the more you decline," Ethan said. "Come on, Jake. We can occupy the table at the corner so you can talk to Arabella, then will bring her back to her place."

"Alright," Jacob started looking at his wife, who nodded.

"It won't take long. We'll talk a bit," Angeline said.

"You seemed to be excited about meeting your former boyfriend."

"Ugh," Angeline could not help eye-rolling. "Do you have to say such a thing?" She whispered back and wondered why her husband seemed upset.
