Thinking about it now, 'How could she attend a grand wedding with a big ugly bandage under her chin when she is all dulse up like this? She will look ridiculous and everyone will be glaring at her. "You were saying about this wedding?"
"No, Sir, I was saying you could have the burger if you so desire." Jessy looks at him feeling a bit confused.
When he shakes his head as though he was lost on some other planet and she wakes him up, she notices how the blue in his eyes dilated as though she was looking into a beautiful swimming pool. "Yes, yes, I am sorry, I didn't realize I was so hungry, today with all my errands, I completely forgot to eat lunch, now let me get you something that can be gentle in your mouth."
All that was on his mind was, 'If only he could get the chance to kiss her, he will be certain if it is Jessy.' When she said, "I am good, thanks, and thanks for listening to my ridicules ideas."
Observing how sweetly he smiled and how it radiated his handsome face, she felt comfortable sitting with him.
His voice was gentle, "Aye, that was not ridicules, in-fact I heard my Mom discussing a fun-raising venture to help the needy, so don't ever think your ideas are unfertile, who knows what God can do."
"Do you really think so?" Brent saw the black in her eyes brighten emanating life once more, and her heart and soul seems to be smiling.
Without thinking, he reached across the small table and took her hand in his. At that moment he felt as if he just inhaled a breath of fresh air from the touch, it was so refreshing and rejuvenating.
All his disappointment and dissatisfaction from earlier in the day had disappeared and life seems to have returned to his soul.
Paying more attention to her now as her voice was no longer sad, she sound anxious and a bit happy.
Seizing the opportunity to listen to her voice which was soothing to his heart, Brent said in a gentle but serious tone, "Yes, now tell me, if you had the opportunity to spearhead a project like that, what would your vision and plans be? Please enlighten me, I could be the instrument God can use to make your dream come true, and who knows when that can happen?"
Curious to hear what she had in mind, Brent knew immediately if this person is Jessy, and he could fulfil her dreams then she could be his reality. A smile tugged at the corner of his thin lips after he had spoken.
Brent heard her ask, "Are you sure, you have time to listen to my ridicules ideas?"
Observing how happy she sounds, he replies with a broad smile, "As I said before, your idea is not ridiculed and yes, I will make the time."
Forgetting for a moment what had occurred earlier Jessy asks, "Are you sure? I don't want to hold you back?"
