Chapter 19

I was glad he has a great idea of a good place and timing for a date because everything felt really good at the moment.

I walk into the main restaurant and asked a lady by the desk for anyone similar to Adam and she takes me to where Adam is.

As usual Adam would be the one on time as I see him sitting on an empty table for two. He smiles and stands up the moment he sees me.

Damn he was really gorgeous in the navy blue suit.

He didn't wear any tie and his black shirt was buttoned down. He looked really classy.

When I on the other hand, didn't even wear heels.

"Hi." I said the moment I got closer to him.

"Hey I am glad you made it." He grins.

We just stand there in this awkward atmosphere around us as we just smile at each other.

"You could take a sit." He said which made things easier.

I take off my wool coat and winter scarf and hang it behind my sit.

"So how did your weekend go?" I asked the moment I take my sit remembering that today is Sunday.

"Well not so bad. Quite busy." He said as he sits too.

"With work right?"

"Yes and with some pictures."

"How often do you work?"

"Tuesdays and Saturdays."

"Interesting." I nod my head. "How's the photography thing going?"

"Good. Still looking for models."

"Naked models." I correct him and he snorts.

"Not exactly. Just any girl."

Hmm any girl. I nod my head and my attention goes to the ground. I look under the table beside Adam and I noticed something there.

It was a camera.

"You're sure indeed desperate for a model." I continue looking at the camera.

Adam noticed where my attention was and chuckles.

"Whatever the camera is here for I highly doubt that it's a good idea."

"Ofcourse it is a good idea sweetie." He looks at me and grins.

"And I hope that good idea doesn't have to do with me?" I look at him.

"Well... Maybe it does." He smirks.

"Adam! I told you I don't like pictures!"

"I know I know, but please you need to help me out with this one."

"With what exactly?" I raise my eyebrows.

"I've always wanted to take a picture during the very second of a new year."

"Well you can always shoot the sky when it's 12am on the dot."

"No you don't get." He snorts. "I'm talking about a memorable one."

"Ohh." I look at him waiting for him to say more.

"Please would you help me out with this one?"

I sigh in frustration and throw my hands in the air.

"Just one shot and never again."

"Anything for you baby girl." He grins.

I shake my head and look down at our menu.
