MAYA.
The aroma of sizzling onions and garlic wafted through the air as I hummed along to the music playing softly. Andrew had called a moment ago saying he was pulling up to my apartment building, and I saw his car a familiar flash of black through the window. I rushed to the door when I heard the doorbell go off, a smile tugging at my lips. He looks kinda tired, but happy to see me. I wonder if something happened.
"Hey beautiful!" he said, his voice gentle as he reached for me and we kissed before pulling apart. I still get butterflies anytime we kiss.
"Hungry?" I asked trying to hide my flaming cheeks.
"Starving!" he replied making me laugh. I thought he might actually. His classes are packed this semester.
"I ordered takeout. Chicken and rice, your favorite." I said gesturing inside and he smiled nodding in appreciation as he followed behind into my apartment.
