Lucy drove into a fancy restaurant after about a ten minutes drive from the time she handed me water to drink. I forgot all about the incident and grinned seeing how fancy the place was looking. First time someone is taking me out for lunch, not just the first time but the first time of visiting a fancy eating place.
I could not have thought of giving myself this kind of treat, with which money?.
"You like here?"
Lucy asked me.
"Yeah, it's fancy enough. I have not been to this kind of fancy place. It looks quite expensive, I can't afford it you know?"
She stared at me then shook her head.
"How can you say that? With how you arranged your place, you still have the mouth to tell me you can't afford foods from here and you expect me to believe you?. I have not known you for long but the little time I have known you, I would say you amaze me. You are Unpredictable, too much for saying"
Only if she knows? I did not expect her to believe me because I am the only one who could understand the complex of my being and sometimes, I don't even understand it.
"Whatever Lucy, life is too short to waste it on necessary thinking. I don't think, I act so can you take me out now or are we going to sit down here and argue on what I can afford and what I can't afford?"
She sighed and got her purse. She had turned off the engine a few seconds ago.
"Let's go bae, I don't expect us to argue on that. I can't even argue if I choose to because I suck at it."
"Better for you"
I said and we laughed over it as we made our way into the restaurant. I was really excited to see what inside of the place holds but I don't want to show it before Lucy would think I am putting up a show since she believes I am rich.
We got inside and I was not disappointed. The inside was far better than outside, it's should be so because I would have been angry if the outside is better than inside.
Lucy chose a table and we settled down then a waiter approached us.
"Hello ladies welcome to EAT'N'COME AGAIN"
He greeted and I swore, I almost laughed out. The name was funny. Eat and come again, what a name to give to a restaurant?.
"Thank you. if you don't mind, let's my friend and I go through the menu then we will call for your attention"
Lucy said and the waiter bowed and left.
Lucy picked up the menu and flipped through it while I looked around. Suddenly I felt chills, the air changed and the hairs on my skin stood up. I looked past Lucy to see a lady on black staring at me. She had this look that says "if a look can kill, I might not have lived to tell what I saw"
She lingered her gaze on me and walked through the wall. I felt air blew past my eyelid and I blinked.
"Hello, did you travel or what?. I have been trying to get your attention while you stared at nothing in particular. What will you take?"
Lucy shoved the menu to my face and insisted I choose something so that she could order for our lunch like she calls it, it's not like it's lunch hour yet.
"Why don't you choose for two of us?. I can take what you take too"
I said when I could not make a choice. The dishes on the menu looked strange to me and I don't want to embarrass myself the more.
She accepted and called the waiter. I looked past her again to see if the lady came back but I only saw an empty wall. I was not scared but was curious on who she is and why I had goosebumps when she came. She must be a witch because she has the aura and an evil one. I wondered what her appearance was all about. Why would she appear to me and why did she had that daggar look?
"She is gone again"
I heard Lucy said and I looked at her.
"Who has gone again"
I asked.
"You offcouse,you kept spacing out making me to be worried. If you keep doing this,I would eat and leave without you and you won't do anything so don't space out again"
