Have a good read everyone.

When they arrived at the scene, Andy was amazed. It was a restaurant with a Latin menu where salsa was played all night.

Andy: Robert, I can't believe what I'm seeing. You made an excellent choice. I loved.

Robert: I want to see if you're really a salsa state champion.

Andy: Is that a challenge? So I need a good partner. I don't think you know dance salsa. Maybe I have to dance with other men to prove my title to you.

She was loving making him jealous. But she had no idea what awaited her.

Robert: You won't need another dance partner. Wait to get to know me truly.

He said with that seductive look that always won her over.

They entered the restaurant and immediately went dancing. Andy would never have guessed that Robert could dance salsa. He led her as if they had danced together several times. It was a beautiful couple on the dance floor. Many people stopped dancing and eating to watch them. Their joy was infecting the atmosphere. Many people commented on how passionate they must be.

They continued dancing for a few hours, only stopping for a drink or water. After some time, they decided it was time to eat something. Andy chose typical dishes from Puerto Rico, the country where her family came from. Robert approved the choice and accompanied her.

After dinner, Andy went to the bathroom and Robert remained alone at his table. A man, who had been watching her since she arrived, tried to approach her. He followed her and as she was leaving the bathroom, he pulled her by the arm and said:

Man: I saw you dancing and it would be a pleasure to dance with you.

Andy: Well, I believe that if you saw me dancing, you also saw that I'm accompanied.

Man: Hey! I'm just asking you for a dance. Besides, I don't see you accompanied right now.

Andy: There are a lot of women here who are lonely. You will find someone to dance with you. Oh! And you don't see me accompanied, because I don't need company to go to the bathroom. I might as well go alone. Now, if you'll excuse me, there's someone waiting for me.

Man: What is it?! You don't have to invent that you're with someone to tell me you don't want to dance.

The man insisted and at that moment tried to grab her by the waist. Robert was distant, but soon realized what was happening. As he walked to meet Andy, she was still trying to push the guy away.

Andy: Let me go. I do not want anything with you. Let me go now or I'll call security.

At this point in the conversation Robert arrived and pushed the man, who fell on a table with some glasses and bottles. He was injured by a piece of glass from one of the glasses he had broken.

Robert turned to Andy.

Robert: Is everything okay?

Andy: With me, yes, but I think someone over there needs a firefighter to stop the bleeding.
