Narrator
Brandon was so glad that they came to this restaurant. He fell in love with the hand pulled noodle and the soup.
“I can eat it all day and everyday.” He said happily as he chewed on his food.
Camille laughed. “You can have it all you want because they always make fresh food and is very proud to call it a home made food.”
“Do they have other location?”
“They wanted to expand their business but the rent is expensive. They recently bought this store after renting it for years.”
“Our company can help them expand the business.” Brandon thought for a while. “They can help us to make their food into packages.”
“I think they will love the idea of expansion but I am not sure about them agreeing for package food because they always want to give to the community fresh food.”
“I totally understand that, but I think we can find out from the owner.”
“Do you think our CEO will like our idea?” She asked hesitant.
“Have you met him before?” Brandon finally asked the question.
Camille paused and thought for a while.
“I went to his office before but I didn’t get to see his face. Maybe I should Google him.”
“You won’t be getting any pictures of him.”
“Why is that so? I think he got some awards so most likely his pictures are there.”
“He usually doesn’t go for any award thing. He always send someone to collect the award.”
“He is strange.”
“He just like privacy.”
“I am sure there are some pictures in the web.” Camille said taking out her phone.
“You won’t find any because he always ensure that they get deleted when someone uploads it.”
“What is our CEO’s name?”
Brandon laughed. “Next time You will meet him for sure or may be you have met him before and you didn’t know that.” He said giving her a hint to which Camille didn’t catch on.
“I am sure if I met him I would have know because he is famous and staffs or people will follow him.” Camille said pointing out the basic fact.
Brandon laughed and didn’t say much as he changed the topic.
“This weekend what are you doing?” He asked.
“I am not sure.” Camille said thinking for a while. “Why?”
“Do you want to watch a movie with me?” Brandon asked looking at her.
Camille almost chocked at her food. “Like a date thing?”
“Like a date.” Brandon said nodding his head. “Unless you want to call someone else too.”
Camille didn’t know what to say, “I feel like we should get to know each other first like we just met and you know I feel like” Camille couldn’t finish her sentence as Brandon intervened.
“Okay then. How about if I invite Jason and you can invite someone else too?” Brandon said.
“I am really sorry.” Camille apologies.
“No worries. We can take it as slow as you want. I just tried though.” Brandon said smiling at her. Camille felt somewhat guilty but at the same time was glad that Brandon was so nice and understandings.
“I hope I didn’t make things awkward for you though.” Brandon said trying to confirm with Camille when they were leaving the restaurant.
“I can assure you we are definitely good.” She said smiling.
“So, this Saturday sounds great? Movies and Dinner?”
“Sounds great!” She said agreeing to the plan.
“I will inform Jason. You can call anyone you want or two people or more.” Brandon said explaining.
Camille laughed. “You are cute.” She said blurting out before realizing it and blushed as soon as she said that. ” I am sorry I didn’t mean it that way.” She said.
“Like what way? Honest? Flirting? Fact? Reality?”
Camille laughed which made Brandon smiled.
Brandon drove her home and Brandon opened the door for her.
“Thank you for today. It was actually fun hanging out with you. See you soon then?” She said.
“You will see me tomorrow for sure.” He said reassuring her and making Camille confused.
“We lived in the same neighbourhood.” Brandon said.
Camille made an “Ah” sound and realized that definitely they might meet sometime.
“Tomorrow I will pick you up so you don’t have to get up so early. Take your time. It is super close the office from here.” He said.
“I don’t want to trouble you and also I don’t want to get use to these special treatments.” Camille said.
“Why is that so?” Brandon asked.
Camille didn’t answer. “I will go by myself tomorrow but thank you for the offer. I will see you around or maybe Saturday.” She said as she quickly waved good bye to him and walked to the entrance of the building.
Brandon looked at her and thought for sometime. “She deserve to be treated like a Queen and I will make sure of that.” He said out loud looking at her leave. “You will be mine soon, Camille Parker.” He said looking at her walking in and making sure that she was inside and then he drove off to his home.
