She jolted them awake. "Wakey wakey, we're heading to Majestic Dining Enclave for grub soon."

Molly rubbed her eyes and perked up quickly, tidying up her stuff and ready to leave.

Leo's car was still parked downstairs by the library. Andre was the designated driver for the crowd. He handed his phone to his wife. "Mia, give the manager at Majestic Dining Enclave a call, and get us a reservation." Mia took his phone and started dialing. Halfway there, Chad called in to check. "Molly, what's for lunch?"

"We're heading to Majestic Dining Enclave. Have you eaten, bro?"

Chad replied, "I'm having a meal right now."

Back at the restaurant, everyone chuckled as they saw Chad stepping out for another call. "We're all dying to meet Officer Chad's girlfriend."

"I caught a glimpse of Officer Chad's phone wallpaper yesterday. There's a girl in a pink dress, probably his girlfriend. She's quite a looker; no wonder Chad's keeping her away from us."

"I saw Officer Chad calling his girlfriend this morning, waking her up. At the hotel's restaurant, he spent as much time chatting with her as he did eating breakfast."

The chatter among the police officers turned to Chad. "Officer Chad is the youngest among us, isn't he?"

"Yep, he's only 26 and already making a name for himself. The bosses have taken notice, and he might get a promotion when we get back."

Someone joked, "Let's not get carried away. We're here for a meeting."

Not long after, Chad returned to the room, clearly in high spirits from his call.

"Chad, when are you getting engaged? Don't forget to invite us to your wedding!" The local police chief laughed.

Chad thought of the woman at home, and a bitter smile crossed his face. Him and her? He wasn't even sure if they could stay together.
