Disappointment

When she did not say anything, Daniel started feeling even more anxious.

Thinking he might have made her feel uncomfortable, he quickly said, “It’s okay if you don’t wanna go—”

“No, it's not like that,” she interrupted him. “I’ll come.”

“You will go on a date with me?” When she nodded, the corner of his lips curled upwards as his heart leaped with excitement.

After trying to make a move on her for so many days, Daniel felt he was finally making some progress.

“Alright then, I'll pick you up at seven.”

“Okay.” Emma smiled. She couldn’t hide the excitement she was feeling in her heart.

“I should get back to work.” She excused herself. But before leaving, she looked at him and said, “I’ll see you at seven.”

After she left, Daniel grinned from ear to ear. He was on cloud nine. The possibility of everything changing between him and Emma after tonight made him feel overjoyed.
