Twenty

EVE'S POV

"What is going on?" I asked when Morgan didn't offer any explanation about the sudden change in our means of transport.

"Whose car is this?", I added.

He shifted in his seat to look at me.

"Since it's your first day at work, I wanted to do something special for you. So I hired this car to pick you up”.

I didn't know what to say at first. Of course, the only way he could pick me up with such an expensive car was if he rented one. But why would he go to such an extent? We weren't even a real couple.

Still, it warmed my heart that he wanted to do something special for me on my first day at work.

“Thanks" I said to him.

"It's a nice ride", I added.

It was better than nice. It was the kind of car only the very wealthy drove, and I knew that meant the renting fee had to be quite high. While it was nice that he thought to do this for me, I couldn't ignore the financial implication. I was out of cash and he was making money on a part-time job. We just couldn't afford to splurge
