Love hurts

The Date

Days flew by like an eagle fishing in the deep blue sea. A week had passed since Evans and Kimberly visited the Park.

Everyday Evans and Kimberly walked home together. Every time an incident would occure were Evans would forget his stop and realize that he passed his place because they had an amazing time.

On a Wednesday morning Evans went to class then later he went to work. Through out the week Evans worked his finger to the bone. All the employees at the "Food Restaurants" were amazed.

Mr Andrew Loved the way he handled things. He decided to give him a reward. Mr Andrew called Evans to his office and asked him what he wanted as a reward.

Evans thought for a while and replied that he would want to have dinner with Emily at the restaurant the next day.

Mr Andrew replied, "The place is all yours. Infact the bill is on us."

Evans was very excited to hear the reply. He quickly phoned Emily and told her to get ready that the next day they were going to have dinner. Emily agreed to the offer.

The next day evening, Evans went to pick up Emily at her house. She was looking lovely. She wore expensive clothes to suit the occasion. They walked from Emily's place to the restaurant.

When they reached at the restaurant, Emily was confused. She asked Evans.

"Please tell me that we are not going in there."

"We have a reservation here," Evans explained.

Emily looked at the restaurant from the group to the roof and said, "So you brought me here, infact we walked here. Look at the clothes I'm wearing. They do not suit this environment," She then said to herself, "Anyway this is what I get for dating a brock guy."

"Let's go inside and get this over with," she said aloud.

They walked in and sat down near the window. Evans went at the counter and ordered food. He went back to his seat and popped up a story.

"Have you ever tried the Mexican Foods?" he asked.

"No. They look disgusting and tasteless," she replied.

"I'm sure if you try them, you would like them," he encouraged.

"What are your plans after University?" she asked.

"I want to be in a position of serving others."

Emily started laughing. From the way she laughed it seemed like Evans said something so funny that made her to laugh so much.

"Please don't joke with me. Tell me the truth." she demanded.

"I'm telling you the truth. That's my dream"

"What a lame dream you have. Your friends have a dream of making more money and more luxury. They don't care about others. But you, you want to --" she continued laughing.

Evans was demoralized because of the words she said. His face turned to sadness. He had lost all hopes he had in him.

Their food was brought by a waiter, Evan's friend. After all that happened Evans lost his appetite. Emily however helped herself to a plate full of Spaghetti and Meatballs with a side of salads.

Few hours later, Emily wanted to go home. They walked out of the door and into the streets.

It was a dark and shadowing night. When they walked, they had a conversation going. This conversation was one sided. Emily talked about herself and the things she would want to have.

Their walk in the dark reminded Evans of Kimberly and him.

He started thinking: "Kimberly is very loving, caring and supportive. She pulls me up when people pull me down. But why is it that Emily is the complete opposite of Kimberly." All these things were going through Evan's head. He was lost in his thoughts that he forgot that Emily was even there and still talking.

"So what do you think? Emily asked.

Evans flinched to his senses and looked at Emily. He was confused because he was not paying attention to her. He asked her what she was saying. Emily explained to Evans what she said earlier. Evans thought that it was something new but she was asking him if he could take her on a date in a luxurious place next time.

After that night with Emily, Evans started considering the relationship between him and Emily.
