The restaurant that Cassandra booked was the one where the lawyer brazenly asked for her number while she was waiting for her mom to come back from the washroom. The place where the seven-headed dragon was in the center of the dining room spitting water with the different colors of the rainbow.

There stood a giant Christmas tree with colored lights adorning it, decorations of different kinds - angels, stars, and the likes could be seen enjoying the attention of all the diners who sometimes pause and took time to pose beside the giant tree.

"Imman, I didn't see you coming..." He was pressing her hard to the wall, kissing her forehead, her lips, then on her neck. He stopped when he heard little footsteps coming from behind, then he heard a little boy calling him, incessantly. "Daddy, daddy! Where are you!' the boy was running hard and gasping for breath.

His mother was also there, sitting beside the lawyer. Their teenage son was smiling as he approached his parents. The couple grinned back and commanded him to sit between them. "Why do you want to talk to me, dad? I have been doing great at school and I don't have any problems with my siblings and tomorrow, I'll see the little one again, what is this all about dad?" the teenager was perplexed for he had seen no reason why his father, along with his mother had to talk to him alone. "Son," the attorney said. "Dani told me that you broke up with Amanda, is it true?" his son's head bowed down in shame, not wanting to reply to his father's question. "It is true, then. Well, you are still young to even have a serious relationship with Amanda but you can still be friends with her right?" he asked the young man agai

I do hope that you'll marry someday and forget me, Dani, you deserved to be happy..." Imman said seriously.
