Jordan.
I finally reached the restaurant and I looked at both sides of the road as cars drove by. I finally ran across the road when there it was free and I walked to the restaurant. I grabbed the door and opened it, walking into the building.
I looked across the restaurant, my eyes scanning for the lady I was here to meet.
She wasn’t here.
Or not. I looked at someone covering her face with a newspaper as she slowly brought it down.
Nicole.
She looked at me and I waved, walking towards her.
Here goes nothing.
“Nicole,” I said and moved an empty chair at her table backward, sitting on it..
I placed my hands on the table and intertwined my fingers as I stared at Nicole who was closely observing me..
“Ahem.” I tried to get her attention so we can talk and she nodded.
Nicole looked so much better and beautiful. Her clothing was expensive and she had a glow that showed how well she had been living.
