"Uhmm . . . I'll be having what you'll be having," Sisley said, shyness in her tone. She didn't know anything from the lists of dishes written on the menu. Like she was reading some kind of an ancient language long since forgotten.
She then fidgeted on her seat, smile dropping as she ran her eyes on the price list. One simple dish was already equivalent to her one-month allowance!
Nevertheless, she remained tight lip for the reason that she didn't want to ruin the mood. Didn't want to complain on just their first date.
Shifting her eyes left and right, she fumbled her fingers on top of her lap, trying to hide her ignorance and agitation.
Daniel found the whole thing cute and funny. He then ordered all the expensive dishes on the menu. When the waiter left, the silence between them turned awkward.
It was not like this. He and her always have something to talk about.
Something was different on this day.
