Andrew's POV ¶¶
"She keeps peeking at me, what's the matter with her?. I know I haven't been a good dude but I am trying to change. This her glance freaks me out".
I am really nervous.
Yet I keep acting normally.
"Or she might be suspecting something?."
I don't think so.
But what will she be suspecting?. She can't have any idea of how this place is.
She looks at me and when I face her, she plugs her head inside the menu booklet.
"Won't you order?."
I ask her
She seems lost.
I ask back the same question, calling for her attention.
"Oh sorry!. What did you say?.".
She gets back to me
"Won't you order?."
I ask again
"I will!."
She says, nodding.
I call for the waiter and we both order, later, we get served and begin to eat.
I can't take my gaze off her, she is so cute. Her lips gently vibrate, I love the way she chews, I am eating and discreetly peeking at her.
She takes a deep breath, she looks very nervous and restless.
"So what are we doing right now?."
She asks me.
She is slightly shivering. I don't understand what is wrong with her. Her weird mood since we came here.
"I don't get you!."
I get curious about her questions.
"As in, me and you, now?."
She insists dangling her hand, pointing her chest, and then pointing at me.
I don't really know what to tell her.
I feel very attracted to her. I know I want to be by her but what if it changes in the nearest future?.
I don't want to make any quick decisions.
"I want us to be together, at least let get to know each and see where it goes!."
I say my mind
"Okay, fair enough!."
She seriously nods at me.
I feel there is something wrong with her. Then she gets back to her food.
"Grace!."
I call her.
There she is, lost in her thoughts, again.
I get up from my seat and move closer to her and seat next to her.
I hold her in my arms.
I want her to feel free and open up to me.
Yet I mostly do this for myself. She looks so cute and I crave to hold her in my arms and perceive that she is all to me, and to me alone.
She shivers at my touch.
"Andrew, what's going over you?."
She asks with her trembling voice.
She smiles at me.
I smile back at her. I gently cuddle her.
"Nothing, I just want to feel my woman!. Or I'm not authorized to?."
I give her a conny smile.
She is laughing right now and I love that.
"Since when did I became your woman?. The last time I checked, I was just your common baby mama!."
She teases me
"Come on, baby!."
I hold her tightly.
She relaxes and leans her head on my chest.
"Now, you are mine!."
I whisper.
She slightly smiles.
"Now, tell me what is wrong with you?."
I ask
She opens her mouth, I know she wants to say "Nothing!." but I stop her before she can speak it out.
"Remember, no lie. So baby, take your time and tell me what is troubling you?."
I caress her
She takes a deep breath.
"Think!."
I insist
"Don't know where to start?."
Her smile fades as she tells me.
"I want to know everything about you!. This is why I am here!."
I am very curious right now.
"I am not the calm and naive girl you think!."
She is very serious
"I never said you are calm!."
I laugh
She barely laughs
"Shut up, you know what I mean!."
She smiles
I nod at her.
"I have my bad, nasty shades. Kind of Addiction!."
She hesitates
But what those she means. Addict?. Addicted to what?.
"Go on!."
I carefully listen to her.
"Andrew do you really mean it when you say that you want to know me?."
She is staring at me, right in my face.
"Yes, I do!."
I get freak by her stare.
She suddenly gets up!.
"Follow me!."
she says.
I do as she says!.
We enter the restaurant's Kitchen.
We enter a small room.
She places her hand on an electronic device with a blue color.
"Access granted!."
The machine speaks.
Then the door open.
Now we are moving in a corridor.
I can't believe it.
"Grace?!."
I tell myself.

Grace POV ¶¶
I don't know why I am doing this, but I know that I have to do it.
I don't even know where this courage is coming from, but it's there. I act on an impulse.
I have a feeling that I will regret this later but it's already too late. We are already walking in the corridors.
I have been keeping this for so long.
I had already forgotten about this place, I guess it's faith which brought us here today.
I don't know why, but I feel very comfortable when Andrew is around, despite his negligence.
I just pray that I am not doing something stupid. In the name of love.
"How am I sure that it even loves?.
What if he doesn't feel the same way as I do?."
Or
"What if he uses this against in me in court to take my baby away?."
I ask myself.
"Grace doesn't be stupid!."
I hit myself self in my mind.
He said he wants to know me, we are soon going to have a baby and maybe end up as a couple.
"Hahaha!. I couple. As in husband and wife!. Very weird!. Hahaha...!."
I laugh at my thoughts, in my mind.
Anyway, I feel that it's the right thing to do. I had never felt this for a man before.
"They say life is a risk, I take this risk!."
