Chapter 93: The persistent Luke

~~~I was as wrong as I could be to let you get away from me, I'll regret that move for as long as I'm living. But now that I've come to see the light, all I want to do is make things right. So just say the word and tell me that I'm forgiven. You and me we're gonna be better than we were before. I loved you then but now I intend to open up and love you even more~~~

-Sérgio Mendes-

The following day, I wasn't that surprised when I saw him again at the coffee shop, wearing his business suit and at the same time as the other days. But what surprised me was the people were eating with him. He told me they were his business colleagues and they have a meeting regarding their new project. Although I didn't ask him for an explanation, well, I just nodded, so he couldn't be embarrassed in front of his friends.

That day didn't just end there without me asking him about his intention for doing such thing every day.

"Luke, what are you doing?" I asked him when all his friends had already left the shop. I intentionally approached him and asked for him to sit back.

"What do you mean what I'm doing?" He leaned against his seat and stared at me with amusement written in his eyes.

"I know you know what I am talking about. Why are you doing this?

"Why am I doing what?"

I held my breath for a few seconds then slowly released it. A simple and effective way to calm my nerves.

"Why are you always here and always bringing companion? Yesterday, you were with Patrick and then now with some of your business friends? What is this--- why are you doing this?"

"I told you, we had a meeting and you saw it, didn't you? And about yesterday, I already explained to you that I don't want to go to work without having breakfast."

"Oh, come on, Luke! There are a lot of restaurants near your office building, so why do you bother coming here when you know it's out of the way?"

"I've already told you the reason, besides, I love your new flavours of frappe coffee."

"I don't believe you," I said in a serious tone, but he just chuckled at me.

"If you don't want to believe me, then what would be the reason why I come here every day?"

"I don't know!" I shrugged. "Why don't you tell me?"

He sighed. His smile slowly died as he stared at me seriously.

"Do you want an honest answer?"

I gulped. I don't know why I suddenly felt nervous.
