19. Cousin, my ass! [Part 2] I stare at the phone in my hand, stunned. "Is there a problem?" "Mmm... I don’t know," I bite my lip as I put the phone back in my purse. "I think Aaron is coming here." Thiago doesn’t look surprised, and I wonder why. "Oh, perfect," he smiles with what seems like mischief. "Let’s wait for him. Did you finish your food?" I look at my empty plate and nod a bit unsatisfied because I’m still hungry. "I’m still hungry," I confess. "Can we order something else?" "A dessert?" "Yes!" I squeal with enthusiasm. "I want dessert!" Again, since I have no idea what the dishes on the menu mean, Thiago orders for me. Just as the waiter leaves to get our order, Aaron arrives. I don’t see him, but I feel his presence behind me when he places his hands on my shoulders.
