“That sounds good too…” he replied before he grinned at me.
Did he have something else in mind?
“Is there something else that you’d rather do this evening?” I asked curiously.
“Not really. Having dinner together this evening sounds just fine…” he replied casually.
“Ok, then. I’ll work on the booking, so you don’t have to worry about it,” I replied reassuringly.
I smiled at him while my mind already imagined a romantic dinner date with Ace for the evening. Suddenly, the world seemed like a much brighter and more loving place. Life didn’t seem so hard as it did before and there was a spring in my steps as I turned to walk away from him.
“Rina…” he called my name softly.
I felt a tug on my wrist and looked down to see Ace’s large hand around my wrist. My eyes widened in slight surprise as I turned to face him with a questioning look on my face.
“Come here, Rina. I never said that you could leave just yet…” Ace said as he pulled me back towards him.
“I thought I should go and arrange for our dinner…” I murmured as my mind started to feel even more confused than before.
“You can do that later. I can’t wait to enjoy a little celebration with you…” he murmured as his eyes stared deeply into mine.
“Umm…me neither…” I replied with a smile.
I wished that we didn’t have to work anymore and that we could skip out on the rest of the working day and go straight to our date. However, I knew that that was impossible. We had to be patient and wait for our romantic celebration together tonight.
“Good. If that’s the case then you wouldn’t mind starting our celebration right now, right?” he asked before he smirked mischievously at me.
His grip around my wrist tightened and I was starting to understand what he had in mind. My eyes widened as he continued to stare at my face with a clear look of yearning in his eyes.
“Did you already have this in mind when you called me in here?” I asked accusingly.
