Chapter 56
Matt parked the car in a space close to the front door of the restaurant. He got out of the car and opened Tory's door, assisting her out onto the pavement.
Once inside the restaurant, a waiter escorted them to an intimate corner table with dimmed lights. Just what Tory did not want.
Matt ordered a bottle of wine, Chardonnay. The waiter returned with the bottle and two long-stemmed glasses. He poured a small portion in a wine glass for Matt, who tasted the liquid and nodded to the waiter. The waiter poured the wine in each of their glasses and left the table. Matt lifted his glass to Tory.
"To old times together," he said with a big smile.
Old times indeed. Tory met his glass with a "clink" and took a sip of her wine. Very good. Maybe with a few more glasses and I'll be able to get through the night.
She studied the menu and decided to order light. When the waiter came back to take their orders, Matt nodded to Tory.
