Wife Pretend

You're mean Dave

The day passed so quickly, suddenly the dark had greeted the day. It was a cold dark night. Erika was just about to go to sleep, she felt tired because she had been traveling with Mark all day. Suddenly, his phone rang. Making Erika undo her intentions and immediately grabbed her phone that was on a small table near the bed.

Erika saw an incoming message in her chat application.

**DAVE

Come to the xxxx restaurant immediately, I wait. And remember don't make me wait too long**.

So about the contents of a short message from Dave.

What the fuck this guy. Suddenly told him, already knew once I was told to rush. Hah basic man crazy. But I like. Erika murmured in her heart. He smiled at his last words.

After that the girl immediately rushed to the wardrobe to look for a change of clothes. In haste she began to change clothes, polishing her face with a little make up. Then immediately out of the room, then running around down the stairs. He doesn't want to be late to see Dave like Dave's message. Given the mood of the man it is easy to change. And the men contact Erika first and invite her to eat at the restaurant.

This was an unusual thing, Erika thought, she did not want to waste the opportunity to get closer to the man. Arriving in Dave's courtyard, Erika immediately got into a car parked in the yard. He immediately started the engine and left.

*****

At the restaurant, Dave seemed to wait impatiently. He repeatedly glanced at his watch. His face was starting to look upset. But before long he saw Erika had started to enter the restorant area. Erika circulated her gaze, her eyes twitching as if she was searching for someone's whereabouts.

When his eyes found the figure, he waved to the man who was now also staring at him.

With a smile slowly Erika came closer. He was amazed by the decorations around the dining table that is now occupied by Dave. What's the matter? His mind could not stop wondering. His face had begun to be a little satisfied because it was holding a very strong heartbeat when dealing with Dave.

"Hi!" Erika said a little awkwardly when she was in front of Dave.

"Hi too, sit down!" Answer Dave in a flat tone. He also looks a little awkward.

But hearing that, Erika still stood nailing. He still could not believe that the man would prepare a candle light dinner for him.

"Why are you still standing? Oh my goodness!!" Dave said as he stood up from his chair, after which walked towards the seat next to Erika, then pulled her slightly back so that Erika could sit down. "Sit down!" Dave still has his cold face.

Erika was moved by Dave's treatment this time. He did not expect that Dave could also be sweet and romantic. Yes although the man had not been able to change the stiff expression on his face.

"Thank you!" Erika smiled and began to sit in her chair.

After that, Dave returned to his seat.

Suddenly things felt awkward again. They were both silent again before a servant came to their table to offer them what they were going to order.

"I'm on the menu in first order only!" Dave said to the waiter.

"Okay sir! then drink?" Ask the waiter again while busy taking down Dave's order.

"That's on the first menu too!" Answer Dave briefly.

"Well, sir, and you're Miss?" Now the servant turned to face Erika.

"Emm.My orders are the same as her!" Erika said with a friendly smile. Then he glanced at Dave who was currently also looking at him, Erika's face seemed to be reddened because in Dave's face like that.

"Okay ladies and gentlemen, we will deliver your order soon!" Said the servant friendly, then he passed from the front of Dave and Erika.

The awkwardness between the two seemed to come back under attack.

"I'm.." They talk at the same time.

"You.." And again talking at the same time.

"You go first!" Sela Dave was quick at last not to talk at the same time again.

Well, maybe this is my chance to speak my true heart.

Erika seemed to be taking a deep breath. It was as if he was trying to gather all his courage. Her eyes looked beautifully sparkling because of the much love for Dave inside those eyes.

And actually Dave knows it. But somehow he seems not ready to accept the declaration of love from Erika.

"You can say whatever you want not to relate to feelings!" Dave said again when Erika just wanted to open her mouth to start talking.

Instantly, it was as if a black fog was immediately dodging Erika's feelings. His ears and eyes immediately felt hot, especially his heart, as if he could not bear the pain until his tears had begun to float in his eye sockets.

"All right, I get it!" Erika said while holding tightness in her chest and tears that almost spilled to hold the heartbreak. Even the man was willing not to give him a chance even if only to express his feelings.

Then all this what Dave, why are you taking me to this place of eating, this romantic place, what this all means. I just want to play with my feelings. Erika.

I'm sorry, I don't know why I don't feel ready to accept the change in my own heart.I'm not ready, I'm just afraid that it will end up hurting you. Dave.

"How are you today?" Said Dave in a relaxed tone, not that he did not know the change in Erika's face that changed softly. He just wanted to distract her so that the girl would not be sad anymore.

"Yes well, you alone? What about your job today?" Erika answered, asking again.

Dave nodded slowly. "Yes I'm good too, Yes as always, there's always something I have to do." Said Dave flat.

"Oh.." Erika said no less flat. His heart was filled with disappointment, so he was reluctant to talk much.

Soon their food orders came. A waiter was busy putting their food orders on the table. Erika and Dave stared at each other for a moment. As if there was something they wanted to say but could not deliver.

Finally they went through this dinner with just a lot of silence and a little talk.

They were silent, but their eyes met occasionally. Erika seemed to be lazily feeding food into her mouth. And so is Dave. This is a really bad dinner. So thought both.

If only everything seemed easy. I just wanted to say I love you Dave. But why do you seem to hold me back from saying it. You're ruthless Dave.

SERIATE...
