Chapter 140: The First Date (3)
They ended up eating junk food—a grilled mozzarella cheeseburger without green, Alex’s usual comfort food.
When Aurora suggested this burger earlier, she noticed excitement beaming from Alex’s eyes.
As they enjoyed their meal, they shared stories about their hobbies. She knows everything about his hobbies and whatnot. Yet, she continues asking questions to keep the conversation flowing and enjoyable for both.
Every time Alex asked her about herself, she genuinely answered him.
Aurora was unsure whether Alex was aware of her past. If he knew, she was certain this man would be confused again. But she no longer cared. Right now, she just tried to be herself!
Once they had finished their burger, Alex turned to her and asked, "How do you know I like grilled mozzarella cheeseburgers without green? I never knew there was someone else who knew that I liked it a lot." His curious stare made her smile.
She wanted to hear this so she would have a reason to answer him honestly, even though she knew her answer would be useless.
"Because I’m Rory! I know everything you like, and you don’t like..." She said that, but of course, Alex only saw her stare at him without saying anything.
"Aurora, why do you have that look on your face? Are you hoping for a kiss?" His charming words left her momentarily speechless.
Aurora immediately shook her head.
"I like burgers and wanted to eat here with you." She responded randomly to him, feeling relieved that this man believed her.
