Chapter 16 The Afternoon

• Ellie
• I am standing there at the door looking at my boss with two different flowers in his hands. He looks so good and casual. His muscles threatening to burst out of that so-fitting t-shirt he is wearing. I have never seen him so casual, so beautiful and the cap just accentuates it all. He doesn’t have to put much effort to look good. I had just spent the whole morning looking for the perfect outfit and applying makeup. I did not want to do too much but still not too little. I still cannot she off the fact that he asked me for a date. Adrian Sage asked me out on a date! I realized that I had stood at the door staring at this man for a couple of seconds now.
• “Hi, I am so sorry. Come on in,” I say ushering him in. Dad was in his sick chair in the living room watching some TV. I lead him to the living room. It is a bit small but since it has been me and Dad it is quite sufficient.
