Seven Years Ago
Added 2023-12-26 16:00:04 +0000 UTCβI had a feeling you would love Greek food,β she sang, and barely resisted the urge to skip along the sidewalk like a little girl.
βWeβll have to come back so I can try everything I didnβt get to this time.β
She bumped shoulders with him as she teased, βI think you should take the owner up on her offer to give you a free meal since you ordered half the menu.β
βI was hungry,β he said, mouth quirking when she tipped her head back and laughed.
βThe way the dishes wouldnβt fit on the table,β she wheezed. βThe servers didnβt believe you could eat it all and even took pictures. That was the highlight of my week.β
βGlad I could be of service.β
It was a beautiful night. Warm, with a light breeze. It was quiet, with almost no other pedestrians on the sidewalks and few cars passing by as they made their way back to her apartment building. It was later than they normally went out to dinner. His meeting went over by a few hours. She didnβt admit to herself how crushed she was, thinking heβd cancel, or the elation she felt when he called an hour ago to let her know he was fifteen minutes away. Instead of searching for a place to eat, she suggested they walk to the Greek restaurant that she went to regularly and was thrilled by his enthusiastic reaction to the food, which heβd never tried before.
