Third Wheel
The next morning, after I prepared breakfast I went to the garden without having it. I wanted to have it with him and when I asked Tina to call him, she said he wasn't in his office. So, I decided to do some gardening. I was enjoying gardening when he came with breakfast. I looked at him and he smiled.
"Let's eat," he said.
His voice was soft and he seemed happy.
I washed my hands and sat on the bench. We then ate in silence.
"If you don't mind, I was thinking.. if...you know..i .... I want to take you out...." he whispered in nervousness, playing with his hand.
I looked at him and laughed a little.
Was he nervous?
I just sat there looking at him and he frowned at his hands when I said nothing.
"For... dinner," he hesitated.
"I didn't mean to.....laugh," I apologized.
Questions filled my mind. I mean he never asked me to go out before so why now?
