“Are you sure this is the right place, darling?” A voice called out. The soft tone of her words made his chest tingle. He turned, the corners of his mouth upturned, and looked up at the woman who had walked into the restaurant. He had an enormous smile stretched across his face, and he moved towards her with quick strides. The restaurant had a gentle lighting scheme; soft music played in the background. She was the only person he could see in that moment.
