We wait in the elevator and I look up from the corner of my eye. I see that Matthew looks nervous and he might actually be blushing.
If this is his way to become better friends with me; this guy will not be happy.
The elevator stops at some floor and a 3 men in suits walk in and I give them a nod and they nod back.
They look at Matthew expecting him to nod back but he just stares at them and looks down at me.
I say "he's new" they all look at each other and smile.
The biggest one says "welcome to the team" Matthew smiles and thanks them.
After a few minutes we finally reach the ground floor and the 3 men wave goodbye to us.
I wave back and Matthew takes my hand and I look down at out intertwined fingers. I look back at his smiling face and ask "um what is this about?"
He smiles and says "you haven't been to this Café before but I have... so I'll guide you" I smile and shrug.
We leave the company area and walk on the streets and I think that this guy might actually be trying to kidnap me.
I look around at the places to remember where I am.
We finally reach a small café which is yellow and pink. It has small table outside with umbrellas. On the windows there are drawings of cats, dogs, cake, and coffee. This place is actually cute.
He takes me to one of the tables and pulls the chair back and I sit on it and he pushes it in. And people say chivalry is dead. He tells me to wait and he runs into the café and I wait and look around at all the people walking by.
After a few minutes, Matthew comes back and he looks excited now "so how are you doing now?" he asks.
I put my elbows on the table and rest my chin on my hand and say "I'm doing better now, how are you?"
He rests back on his chair and says "I'm doing pretty well"
We chat for a few more minutes and the waiter arrives holding a tray of a glass lemonade and a glass of iced tea. He places it on our table
Matthew says "I hope you like lemon ice tea"
I smile "I love lemon ice tea! How did you know?"
He smiles "Magicians never reveal their tricks"
"Jenna told you, didn't she?"
"ya but still I ordered it"
I laugh and nod.
We continue talking and the waiter returns with a plate of chicken salad and chicken sandwich. I reach for the chicken salad.
He pulls it back and says "you get the sandwiches"
I shake my head and say "I am going to have the salad, thank you very much"
He doesn't give it back and instead says "you need to eat. Jenna told me that you don't eat a lot"
I sigh and take the plate with the chicken sandwich, he smiles and we begin to eat.
"Would you like to play a game?" Matthew asks. I look up at him while sipping my iced tea and nod "the game is that I will point at a couple or person. You have to try to guess their life"
I smile and think that this isn't that bad of a game and I say "okay you point and I'll guess"
Matthew smiles and looks around. He points at a couple behind him that are getting out of the car "them" I sigh and check them out.
The man is wearing a grey suit and he has muscular but short stature, he has copper brown hair. He looks intimidating since he has cold eyes. He has a tense jaw and might be a CEO of some big company.
The woman is wearing a gorgeous plum dress and has long brown wavy hair and looks shy and nervous. Almost like a dominant and submissive.
I look at Matthew and say "the man is most a CEO of a big company and he looks dominating. The girl, who looks creative and sweet and is his submissive.
And they're married. Seeing the rings on their hands and they're married to each other since the man seems protective of the girl. The girl has a look of love in her eyes while looking at him"
Matthew smiles and says "wow that is well done" I shrug and say "I studied psychology in college"
He laughs and looks around and then points at a young couple across the street. They are chatting with each other.
The boy has tattoos and seems muscular and looks like a wrestler, but he has a kind face and he seems to be I love with the girl.
The girl was wearing a sweater and jeans so she must not care much for her appearance or the heat. She has a sweet face but her stance looks like she is independent and strong.
I look back at Matthew and he waits and I say "they are in college or have just finished college. The boy is a wrestler or soldier or something like that.
The girl is independent and strong even though her face looks the opposite"
Matthew claps and I narrow my eyes at him. I say "I get to point now" I look at the streets and see couples and friends and business man.
They all seem too easy to tell about, but then I see 3 friends walking side by side.
There is one tall, maybe of Indian heritage girl with glasses and dark brown wavy hair with golden tips. She is wearing a black shirt and black jeans and holding a notebook and black pen.
The boy has brown hair and looks kind and he has his arm on the glasses girl's hip. He is looking at her with a lot of love and is carrying a briefcase and wearing a suit.
The other girl has straight long black hair and is wearing a gorgeous sundress. She has a beautiful jaw line and curves but is shorter than the glasses girl.
I look at Matthew who is watching them with a lot of concentration. I laugh because he looks funny for actually using his brain for once.
He turns to me and smiles and I gesture for him to talk. he says "The girl with glasses is a writer and was born here, since she is guiding the other two around.
She also looks creative and is in love with the boy who is holding her waist, the boy is her boyfriend.
She is a good friend of the straight haired girl, he seems to be in love with the glasses girl. He seems to be a business man by his briefcase and suit.
The straight haired girl is best friends with the glasses girl. They look more like childhood friends. She is a psychiatrist since she looks like one."
I smile and think that he might actually be right about them.
After chatting for some time more we go back to the office and he holds my hand again.
I say "I know where the office is"
he smiles and says "then why are you still holding my hand?"
I smirk but keep holding hands with him and when we get to the lobby
I let go of his hand and he looks confused but I gesture my head to Mr. Red who is walking towards us.
Matthew sighs and I chuckle and we go up to him.
Mr. Red looks upset and asks Matthew "where the heck were you?! I went to the office and saw you weren't there!"
I see Matthew sigh and he says "we were coming back from lunch, dad"
Mr. Red looks at me and I say "yes Mr. Red we were coming back from lunch"
he lets out a breath of relief and says "I feared that you had quit"
we laugh and Mr. Red leaves and I head to the elevator but Matthew holds my wrist. I turn to look at him and he walks to me and asks "do you want go out for dinner later?"
I feel my eyes become wide and he just smiles at me and I say "ya sure" he starts blushing.
I think 'what's the harm in going out for dinner, right?'
