Victoria's pov

Remember when I said that I loved a challenge? Well I take it back. This challenge has been harder than I originally thought, and I was starting to lose hope.

It has been two weeks since my first encounter with Luka, and I haven't seen him since. I was starting to think that he was simply avoiding me.

We exchanged text messages now and then, but it was mostly a 'Hi. How are you? Goodnight' text.

I tried calling him a couple times, but either it goes to voicemail, or he would answer, talk for two minutes then give me an excuse to hang up.

I hate coming off as that pushy, annoying female, so I decided to give it a test. I asked him to meet me at Winter's Park today at 4 in the afternoon. He didn't answer my message, but I knew he received it.

If he comes, I'll have a little chat with him and see if we should continue this 'friendship', because it honestly felt one sided. If he doesn't come, I'll just forget anything ever happened and move on with my life with the little dignity I have left.

I bobbed my head to the song on the radio as I drove to Charlette's diner to get a cup of coffee before I headed to the park. The familiar sound of the bell rang as I stepped through the door, with a beaming Kera behind the counter as she spotted me.

"Well hello stranger, what can I get for you?" I laughed at her comment as I took out my purse.

"I'll have a coffee and two donuts ma'am" I said in a playful professional tone.

"Okay I'll go get that for you and you know you don't have to pay Vic. You're family".

I sighed knowing I wouldn't win that one.

On many occasions when I tried to purchase something, they would refuse the money, or add it back to my paycheck. I have to say, I enjoyed the luxury but I don't take advantage of it.

"Here you go" She handed me my food and I smiled gratefully at her. "So where are you heading on this fine Sunday afternoon?" She asked as she leaned against the counter.

"Going to the park. Gonna meet someone" If he bothers to show up.

"Ooouu a guy??" She swooned, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively. I rolled my eyes at her.
