Just Me

Not long after, one guy told Hunter and Mr. Ronald that he has to meet somebody important there. When Mr. Ronald agreed and asked Hunter to go with him, Hunter was hesitating as he looked at Claire.

“Don’t worry! We won’t be long… Let’s just meet up at our table?--” Mr. Ronald said to them both when he noticed Hunter’s hesitation. “We got the same table, I’ve checked…!”

Claire let out a firm smile and nodded, giving her approval, telling Hunter that she’d be okay. But deep down Hunter knew that Claire was just trying to be strong, to blend in, to meet his expectation.

He slightly looked down before speaking in her ear considering the loud voices from all the people there.

“I’ll see you at our table in fifteen to twenty minutes top?” He said.
