Reuben came down wearing a cream color shirt and peacock blue pants, rubbing his wet hair with his right hand. He was actually half ready for his office.
Not seeing the slim figure in the dining room, he searched in kitchen and there he found his girlfriend, plating a dish still wearing the bathrobe with her hair tied with a single clip on the back of her head.
Feeling a warm stare at her back, Veronica faced the door and after seeing the person there with a smile on his face, she also smiled back and took two plates in her hand.
Giving the two plates in Reuben's hand, she said to him, "Keep these plates on the table. I'll bring the others."
Reuben listened to her orders like a dutiful boyfriend and waited for Veronica to come with the other dishes.
While having their breakfast, Reuben observed Veronica, drinking her soup quite happily. That was why, he was reluctant about the fact that whether he should let her know today's big news or not.
