Chapter 135: Dealing with the old feeling

~~~Well, here we are again. I guess it must be fate. We've tried it on our own, but deep inside we've known we'd be back to set things straight. After all the stops and starts, we keep coming back to these two hearts. Two angels who've been rescued from the fall. After all that we've been through, it all comes down to me and you. I guess it's meant to be, forever you and me, after all~~~

I immediately turned the swivel chair in the door's direction when I heard Dana's voice.

"Yes?" I asked as soon as she came into my sight.

She has her phone in her hand and covering it with her other hand... which got me confused.

"What is that?" I asked again and she gave me a mischievous smile before opening her mouth.

"Luke is asking if they can have an outdoor business meeting here this afternoon?" She replied barely a whisper that made my frown deeper.

I stared at her, blinking my eyes for a few seconds not knowing what my reaction would be... if I was going to laugh at her, laugh at her question or kick her ass out of the mini-office.

"Why are you asking me, I mean, why do you have to ask me?"

"Because you are a co-owner of this shop." She shrugged.

"What?" I can't believe what she had just said. "My goodness, Dana! You're also a co-owner so why do you still have to ask me? Besides, what if they want to have a business meeting here or whatever meeting is that---just say yes! Tell them it's okay---" "Ohh... if that is so, then tell him it's okay with you." She interrupted me and in an instant, the phone she was holding was already in my hand.

"What am I going to do with this?" My eyes were round like saucers as I started whispering and she giggled at me.

"Uhm... talk to him and tell him you will get ready for their meeting." She whispered back with a wink.

"But why do I need to be the one talking to him? Why not you?"
