Layla was eating waffles while I was sipping on the hot coffee. Leaning back in the chair, I coughed a little that caught her attention. She looked up. She hadn't said a single thing since we had come to this restaurant.

"What is it, Layla? What did you want to talk about?"

Her eyes widened a fraction.

"Uh. How about I tell you after I finish these amazing waffles?"

She was trying to avoid the question. I could tell that much by the way she was avoiding eye contact and was fiddling with the spoon and fork on the plate.

"How about you tell me now? What is it? You've been acting really weird."

"Uh...do you still love Amber?"

A blanket of silence fell upon us for a few minutes.

And then, I spoke up, "Yes. I do. Never stopped, actually."

"Oh."

"Why are you asking?"

"You'll know real soon."
