The trio were already sited at the dinner table and being served delicious food by the helpers.
Different types of food were served on the table such as vegetable salad, beef, fish soup etc. Dina noticed how Chris was staring at the food with horror, this much food would probably scare him.
Dina wanted to let him know that it is not a must to eat all of it but Mrs. Wright beat her to it.
"You know, it's not a must you eat all of it, just ask the her to dish out the food of your choice on your plate" Mrs. Wright chuckled after what she just said.
"Ooh okay".
"So what is your name" Asked Mrs. Wright Chris curiously.
"Chris… my name is Chris" He answered steadily.
"Ummm… Chris" Mrs. Wright repeated soundly. "And how old are you".
"7 years old". He replied after taking a piece of vegetable salad.
Mrs. Wright laughed for a short moment before saying. "Where are my manner, I keep interrupting your dinner"
"I guess it's because there is no one to keep me company lately" She said sadly.
"But why is that, how about Bryan" Dina finally spoke after a while.
"Bryan is in London for a school trip" She sighed after. "He left this old lady all by herself".
"Don't feel sad about it, he will be back soon" Dina tried to make Mrs. Wright feel a little better.
"Sad about what, I have Jeff with me and he takes good care of me" Mrs. Wright said with a happy smile on her face while looking at the young man standing not too far from the dinner table.
Dina turned to look at the person Mrs. Wright was referring to and accidently locked eyes with him. Her intentions were not to stare at him for long but Jeff also made it very difficult to look away because he was also staring at her intensely.
*Cough …Cough*. This singular act made Dina choked on her food. She was so busy staring at him that she forgot to breathe.
"Oh dear, what happened" Mrs. Wright asked looking concerned.
"Mm… its nothing, I just choked on a little vegetable. Can I use your restroom please" Dina asked politely?
"Sure you can. Jeff please show her to the restroom will you"
"This way please" Jeff led Dina out of the dining area.
Jeff found it really funny how Dina was behaving, he knew quite well that she like his but it seems as though she could not handle things properly. He noticed how she would take a quick glance at him almost every time during dinner which he found very cute though.
"So I guess there is no need introducing ourselves, but for the sake of formality I have to" Jeff extended his hand towards Dina for a hand shake. "My name is Jeffery Quinn".
Dina accepted his hand before replying. "Dina Evans. Nice to meet you".
"Nice to meet you too" He then retreated his hand back into his pocket.
Dina could not stop smiling inwardly. She could not believe she just exchanged hands with him. "Today must really be my lucky day If he noticed me already" She said to herself.
"Why don't I have your phone number, so that we can get to know each other better. That's if you don't mind". Jeff scratched the back of his neck a little nervously.
Dina was a bit shy cause she never really talked to guys often, especially the ones she had feelings for. She was always good when it comes to controlling her emotions but it seems she lost her cool when it came to his particular man.
"Sure" Dina gave him her mobile number then went straight to the restroom as directed.
