[Margaret's Perspective]
Donald carried me straight to the dining room.
Obviously, Donald had it specially decorated for our dinner. There were flowers on the table, and music was playing on the restaurant's stereo. The ambience was great but not a single other guest could be seen. It seemed that Donald had cleared the restaurant in advance.
Since Donald and I were together, we rarely had the chance to enjoy a quiet and beautiful evening together. I was surprised and happy when he sat me down. As he sat down opposite me, I couldn't help but ask, "Why did you have time to set up these things today?"
He smiled at me and said, "I think we should do what ordinary mates do."
I almost melted under Donald's gaze. I didn't want to think about anything else. Only Donald occupied my thoughts.
Snatching a moment of leisure like this gave me a kind of indulgent pleasure.
