Chapter 3

He had to see her again! It had been two weeks since they had dinner and he had been weighing the odds and consequences of pursuing this and had tried to reason with himself about what he was going into, but no amount of logic could sway him from the fact that he wanted to see her again. He had not called her, but he thought about her constantly. He never thought about his intended bride at all only when she was at the house for dinner, but here he was thinking about this girl he had just met.

He frowned into his coffee cup and tapped his hands on the desk. He had come in early to deal with the paperwork for a supermarket they had acquired and he could not concentrate on the documents before him. He glanced at the clock on his desk and realized that it was seven-thirty. He knew she always went to work early as she had told him that. With a sudden decision, he reached for his cell phone and dialed her number.

“Hello?” Her voice was a little breathless and he could just imagine her racing from one end of the room to answer the phone.

“You sound like you were running a marathon,” he said softly.

“Peter?”

“Were you expecting someone else?”

“I was actually. I am expecting a call from the President of the United States,” she said facetiously. “If his call comes in, I am going to have to hang up on you.”

He laughed! Ever since he had met her and being around her, he found that he had fun and he could free up himself. “Duly noted. How are you?”

“I am okay. How goes it in the corporate world?”

“As well as can be.” He paused. “I want to see you again.”

She did not hesitate or play coy as some women would do. “I want to see you again too. How about dinner at my place?”

“I thought you did not cook?” he asked in amusement.

“There is such a thing as take-out and it happens to be my best friend,” she told him gaily.

“Friday night works for you?”

“Yes. I will close up at seven and it will take me half hour to get home, so eight is good.”

“I’ll bring the wine.”

“I think I like him,” Kimberly admitted. She and her friends were having lunch at the pizza place near to the store. Deidre worked as a legal secretary for the law firm downtown and Simone had taken her lunch break to coincide with theirs. Kimberly had left Brian to tend to the animals, making sure that everything was okay. “I have never felt so comfortable with someone of the opposite sex before.”

“What do you know about him?” Simone asked her, squeezing the excess oil from her slice of pizza. She was dressed in a green pants suit and her glorious red hair was in a ponytail and bounced each time she moved her head. Deidre was dressed in a chic charcoal-gray suit with a light-blue blouse and Kimberly had on dark blue dress pants and white blouse.
