Next day 

What should I wear? After changing two times she finally got ready. 

"Hii", Eric hugged her. "You are looking beautiful."

"Thank you," She said while blushing.

'Cute' he said to himself.

"Let's get going".

They were walking and Eric wanted to hold her hands. Anne wanted it too. 

Their fingers were touching each other and finally, Eric held her hand. Both were looking in different directions. 

Anne was blushing. Her heart was beating with the speed of light. It was the first time any boy was holding her hand. It was giving her butterflies in her stomach.

They reached the cafe and Eric was still holding her hands. Their talk was disturbed by a waitress.

"What would you like to have sir? "

"Jia"

"Eric. Hii, long time no see. How have you been?"

Her mood was all ruined but Eric handled everything well. So we can say her date was ninety percent successful.

Eric again holds her hand while going outside. They were talking about random stuff. Both of them were happy, smiling from ear to ear. But it does not last long.

They encounter Rebecca. She was also his ex-girlfriend. 

Anne kept smiling but she was already uncomfortable.

After some time they met Mary and she was also his ex-girlfriend.

At this point, she got so irritated that when Mary left she finally asked him, "How many exes do you have?"


















She regretted asking this. 

"Seven" he replied.

"Thank God it is countable, I thought you dated the entire town."

The moment became awkward but Anne started laughing at the blue.
