I can't hear a single word

Just know you're talking 'cause your lips keep moving

Everything I thought I learned

Goes out the window

All I want is one thing

You can promise castles, treasures, babies

I don't care

Cause for now you're just enough for me

I want you near

Like a fairytale to feel your breath right on my neck

You remember what I love so baby take me back

Turn the lights down low and kiss me in the dark

Cause when you're touching me baby I see sparks

You make my heart go

[whistles]

You

[whistles]

You, you make my heart go

[whistles]

You

[whistles]

You, you make my heart go

(Hillary Duff; Sparks Lyrics)

The sun was already up when they left their house. The weather is beautiful, not so hot and not so cold, with a gorgeous clear sky.

Adriana was grateful that her father took her son. Mikeala was happy to see them together, what she did not know is what's running on her daughter's mind.

They had breakfast first at a diner and Nicolas felt so uncomfortable and awkward. He stops on his track as soon as they are about to enter the diner. A ghost of smile crawled on the corner of her lips.

"Let's get in, I'm starving." Adriana tug Nicolas' arm and he reluctantly followed her.

The small room shrunk with his presence, and he looks out of place with his crisp buttoned down shirt tucked in his midnight black suit pants, with his sleeves folded until his elbows. And his towering height added to the awkwardness.

The place looks like a senior citizen's meeting spot. The room was filled with ladies and men age starting 60s. All their eyes was glued to the pair and Adriana gave them all a smile. Nicolas signature's brooding face never left his face.

An old lady about her 70s approach them as she occasionally pushing her glasses to the bridge of her nose. She looks pleasant and carrying a big smile. Adriana felt warmly welcomed.

"Ciao , benvenuto a Felice diner italiano , come stai? Sono Teresina . Cosa ti piacerebbe bere?" (Hello, welcome to happy Italian diner, how are you? I'm Teresina. What would you like to drink?) she gave them a wide smile.

Adriana returned her a smile and responded. "Vorrei un cappuccino, per favore ." (I would like a cappuccino, please.)

Teresina looks at Nicolas and Nicolas paused a second before he responded. "Un caffè per me," (A coffee for me,).
