with her hand on her waist….that was when mr clifford looked around and saw the mess she made of her room

tony sat at the restaurant waiting for ify…he was as nervous as hell…his palms were moist and sweaty….this was not the first time or even his tenth date…he couldn’t understand what made him feel this way….

“i think my fever is getting worse…i really have to see a doctor before it becomes something else..” he said to himself….he looked at his wristwatch…it was 5:10pm…
“late as always” he said smiling…even the thought of her brings joy to him….he raised
his head and saw her…him stopped
breathing…she looked breath taking…her red flowing gown slit at the front to expose her long slender legs…she had a smile on her face that would illuminate the darkest of places…her eyes…so bright and captivating…his hands dripped…he shook….

“God..what is this feeling..??”
，，，，，，，，，，，，，，，，
，，，，，，，，，，，，，，，， ify arrived at the restaurant tony had
asked her to go to…she went inside unsure of what to
expect…but she definitely did not expect what she saw…it was magnificent…everything from the neon lights which shone red and
white colours blinking interchangeably to the rose petals sprinkled on the floor…

the rose trail led to a table for two at the end of the restaurant..breathtaking!!…there
were two sets of scented candles at the edge of the table and a beautiful heartshaped cake
at the centre…”happy birthday ify” it read…two glasses and a bottle of red wine was placed at both sides of the cake…

“happy birthday ify..” tony whispered behind her…ify felt her eyes water…she didn’t
know whether to laugh or cry but she was definitely happy…

“come…sit.” anthony said holding out his hand…ify took it and was led to her seat.
