The next week was busy for both of them so they didn't
talk, Markie wanted to hear her voice so bad but he didn't want to come off as
desperate so he would distract himself with more work.
Lade didn't want to give the "chasing the guy" vibe as
well so she occupied her mind with work, but when Markie had some time to
himself, he finally had the courage to ask her out on a date so he picked up
his phone and decided to ring her, she picked up on the second ring.
"hi Lade, how are you? Thought I forgot you already?
He said chuckling.
Haha, hi Marcus, I'm alright, how are you? Thought you
found a new fish already, said Lade on the other end smiling.
Uh well I'm good and no, I'm not looking for a new
fish, it's just been a busy week, he smiled.
Haha, just joking, it's been for me as well.
Uhm so I was thinking if you would be free this
weekend, I was hoping I could take you out on a date, 'cus,
I'm not going to lie, the thought of you took over my mind a couple of times so
I'd really like to get to know more about you, said Markie.
Hmmm, this is weird cus I actually thought about you a
couple of times too, but most of the time, the thought of you losing my number
or rethinking your life choices pulled me back from reaching out, said Lade.
Oh Lade, I don't know, something just tells me there's
something more to us meeting and I'm willing to explore what it is, so are you
free this weekend?
Lade smiled, yes Marcus, I'm free this weekend and yes
I'd like to go on a date with you.
Yes!!! It slipped out before he could control his
excitement.
Thank you Lade.
They continued to making plans over texts, a movie
date and an early dinner was decided on.
They both couldn't contain their excitement through
the rest of their days and week.
