The man on the other side of the phone laughed when he heard Velina's question that sounded silly to him.
"What... Can't I take you out to dinner for no reason now?" He chuckled lightly.
His voice was so charming and sounded a little seductive as well.
"Oh, no! No no no! That is not what I meant just now. It is just that... I felt a little awkward because you asked me out… All of a sudden," Velina said bluntly.
In her entire life, she hardly eating out with people that she did not know very well. She would only go out with people in her inner circle, which she could count with all of her fingers.
So, an invitation to have a meal together like this from an acquaintance made her feel a little uncomfortable inside. Moreover, dinner invitations were usually done by people who have close relationships such as family dinners or some personal events to celebrate.
