After 6 months of courtship, I was finally taken out for a fancy dinner on Saturday. He came back from the whole process of renewing his visa and had to take a flight from here to his new place of work in a faraway country, so we spent about a day together. Ever since he worked there, I had to spend weekends alone or out with friends, meeting up for dinner etc. I wouldn't say I mind the loneliness, loneliness is just the attitude of the mind. I have too many a things to do though he isn't in the same country nowadays.
Anyway back to my first fancy dinner with him, we went for a movie, 150 minutes long on Saturday evening. After which we took a lesuirely walk from the cinema to a cluster of fancy restaurants about 20mins walk away. He wanted Italian cuisine that night, I was reluctant after checking out its simple menu and exorbitant prices, but he insisted, something very rare about him! It was a highlight in our relationship..or a milestone for me because my darling never believe in wasting money in a commercial sense. We enjoyed the dinner, but still I think we are already used to the privacy at home, away from the madding crowd and hustle and bustle, nevertheless the restaurant was far from crowded,a wee bit too quiet but romantically incandescent with simple interiors,just the perfect candlelight dinner for us as we were cladded casually rather than fancifully. I had a tenderloin beef steak, medium rare, while he had a seafood pasta (not sure what was it called). It was a warm fuzzy feeling when I see how comfortable he is with me, digging into my food and asking for a bite when I had my steak sliced. Being together means more when you are not constrained and not binded by any rules, be it obligatory or not. I didn't want to order wine as we had bottles at home in the fridge, so he followed suit, but I think he was madly craving for alcohol as he repeated assured me that the meal would taste better paired with wine. We finished the meal with a tiramisu. After that we promptly left, being the customer with the fastest turnaround time from what I can tell. The chemistry we shared was great, I couldn't thank God for bringing me to this great discovery. I want to put this down in words and hope I can look back many months or years later to feel the same about him. I know it isn't easy, but deep inside I feel 99% sure it is possible that it will be so.
Till I post again, hope all's well. Take care. Good nite.
