I and Tom were just getting in the car when I caught a glimpse of the dark face of Derek Shepherd from behind.
As usual, he was pissed to see me with Tom, but I won’t let this bother me now.
In fact, I have a useful thing to do with this fact.
Calmly, I drove away from my workplace with Tom beside me, we bought the new phone, picked dinner, and then with a quick look at the cafe, I insisted Tom have his dinner at my home.
He tried to dodge my request but with a fake excuse of my mother wanting to see him, he silently accepted my request.
And I am sure my mother would be glad to see him, after all, I haven’t told her about my and Tom’s relationship status till now.
And with that, I could kill two birds with one stone.
****
As usual, my mother and I had a great time with Tom and when it got late, I deliberately went out with him to see him off.
“So, thanks for the dinner.” He intended to walk away when I held his arm and pulled him closer to me.
