-Part thirteen-

Enzo's pov

It's now the day Zara is supposed to come watch Mia

I have wanted to come by the bakery, but I have been busy at work and Maria has had to watch Mia, but I feel bad because I don't want her running around watching over her

Today I have a meeting about the weapon shipments, and then I need to do some paperwork so it should take about 3 hours

I am finished getting ready for work, Mia is with Maria as she's making dinner, and I hear the gate alarm beep, Which means Zara is here

I am not sure why I'm so nervous

I can't act like a teenaged boy

I walk around the corner to see Zara

She looks absolutely beautiful I can't help but admire her for a moment, her long hair is up in a ponytail, cheeks tinted pink and her brows are knit together as she is in deep thought

Before she catches me and thinks I'm a creep I walk closer, we make eye contact and it feels like the world slows down

What is this girl doing to me...damn it I need to get myself together

"Hi Zara, you look nice, thank you for coming," I tell her

What I wanted to say was you look breathtaking how about I just cancel my important stupid meeting so I can be with you instead

But refrained from it because I do need to be at this meeting

She stares at me for a bit, looks down at her outfit with her eyebrows knit together...does she not think she looks nice?

"Thank you, you look nice as well" she smiles up at me

Suddenly I feel a little too hot in this suit I mean it's just a compliment but from her, it seems like more for some reason

It means more to me coming from her.

"So where is Mia?" She asks

"She's in the kitchen follow me," I say

I want to say something but I can tell she's deep in thought as she's taking in the house so I just let her be

We get to the kitchen and Mia spots Zara and lunges out of her chair

"ZEEEEE YOUR HEREEEE" she meets her in for a hug

And it's the most precious sight looking at Mia and Zara hugging

I would rather watch them all day, but I check my watch and realize I have to head out

"Well thank you again for watching her Zara, but I sadly have to go or else I will be late," I say as I look at my watch

In the corner of my eye I can see Zara looking at my hands, is she checking me out? I am not sure but I like her looking at me and only me

She suddenly realizes she's been staring a little too long at me and says

" No problem we will see you later than" she smiles

God her smile is absolutely breathtaking

"Alright fill free to walk around or have Maria or Mia show you around" I smile and head towards the entrance of the garage

--------- at the meeting ---------

"How many shipments are you sending out," I ask

"We we're gonna send 50 but we decided it would be best to send them out in smaller amount since last time didn't go so well with the shipments," one of my men say
