The phone call ruined my plan.
I changed and I sat on the sofa and I remembered that Andrew had got a big case so I thought he might be stressed. So, I went to his apartment. He opened the door. I went in and saw lots of files on the table. I said, "I heard that you are prosecuting the famous case. You might be stressed." He said, "Yes it is. How come you are here?" I teased him, "Why? Can I not come?" I laughed and said, "I am going to prepare dinner for us."
I went to kitchen and I made dinner. After setting the table, I called him. He came along with a document. I snatched it away from him, he looked stunned and I said, "Don't stress yourself too much. You can talk to me about it. I might help you find something you haven't seen yet. But, No looking at files while eating!" He smiled and said, "Oka...y boss!"
While eating he talked about the case. I even gave him some hint also. I said, "You will surely win this case." He smiled and said, "Obviously, I will. No one can beat me until it's you, lovey. But here I am in advantage because you are not defending." He winked and we laughed and I went back.
When I just was lying on my bed, my phone rang. It was from Louis. So, I picked it up. He asked, "Are you busy?" I just teased and said, "Well a little bit, but I can take out time. Tell me why you called?" He said, "Can you come down. Let's go for ice cream. Will you?" I was amused and I asked, "Are you already down?" He said, "Yes." I replied, "Okay wait for me."
I looked at mirror and tried to have a normal look and went out. He was waiting for me. I waved at him and he waved back. I approached him and said, "Why did you come before even asking me? What if I had declined?" He said, "I knew you won't decline." I felt my heart beat faster and asked, "What do you mean?" He smiled and said, "You will never say No to ice cream. I knew that." I laughed and said, "Yes, never." We went to the ice cream parlor by his car which was not so far also. I just waited him out of the car while he went inside the parlor to take ice creams, and I was thinking that he didn't even ask for which flavor I love. When he came back with the blueberry flavored ice cream and a chocolate flavored one I was surprised because I loved both. He asked, "Which one?"
I asked, "How do you know that I love these flavors?" He smiled and acted as if he was proud of himself and said, "Well I have my ways." I took the blueberry one. He asked, "Can we hold hands?" He forwarded his hand and I stared at his hand for few minutes and he kept his hand down and said, "I am sorry. I just..." I held his hand. He looked at me surprised and said, "Thank you." and smiled. I said, "Well... it's not a big deal to hold hands." I was feeling my heart beating faster. I thought that I will tell him about my feelings for him while we will part.
We walked a little by having ice creams. Just when we had a little, I suddenly wanted to have the chocolate flavored also. But I couldn't ask him for it now. I looked at him having it. He looked at me and said, "Can we change?" I looked at him surprised and said, "What? What do you want to change?" He said, "I suddenly want to taste the blueberry one also. No, actually leave it we can buy it again when we return." I tried to look sad for my ice cream and said, "Well, if you want to taste it then take it. Why waste money for another one!"
I gave him mine and he took mine and I smiled. I was so happy like a little child inside but I didn't show so much. We finished all the one we exchanged and he said, "Oops, I am sorry, I finished it all." I smiled and said, "It's okay, we can have another next time." In my heart I was like, "Thank god you didn't ask it back because I loved the chocolate one more today." He said, "That means will we go again next time?" I looked at him and said teasingly, "Well you know I won't say No to ice cream and if you will buy then I will definitely say yes". I winked.
We sat on the car and when we were returning, my phone rang again. I looked at the number and it was an unknown number so I looked at him and he said, "Don't mind me pick it up." I picked up the phone.
Me: Hello?
The other side with a harsh voice of a man: Hello, Is this Attorney Watson?
Me: Yes, who is this?
The other side: I am Janol Patrick and I guess you know about my son's case so I want you to take my son's case.
Me: I am sorry, but I am not interested in taking your case.
Janol Patrick: I will give you how much ever money you ask for. You just need to stand as a defender for my son.
Me: I am not interested even if you give me your whole property. So, never call me again.
I hung up the phone. We had already reached my building when I hung up the call and Louis asked, "You looked stressed. Who called you?" I said him about the case and the call and he said, "That's good that you didn't take the case." I thanked him and went back. On my way up to my floor I thought the phone call just ruined my plan of confessing to Louis. I thought that I will tell him some other day and I slept after that.
