Attracted By My Ex-wife

Sylvia took a sip of the drink Emily brought her. After a few seconds, she finally said, "If I were you, I would just call him. Otherwise, don't expect a call from him today." Sylvia sounded mysterious.

"We need to find an appropriate time to do it. What's more, we have to come up with a reason to ask him out."

Her speech was interrupted by the sound of an incoming call. Emily noticed the phone screen that lit up and realized it was hers.

Speak of the devil! The call was from Sam.

"Sylvia, Sylvia, Sylvia," Emily shouted incessantly.

She waved the phone in front of her friend.

"Well?! What are you waiting for? Pick it up!" It was safe to say, Sylvia was just as anxious.

Emily hurriedly swiped on the screen.

"Hello," she said as calm as she could.

"Hello, this is Sam," he greeted after a short pause.

"Yes, I know. What's up, Sam?"

Right off the bat, Emily wanted to slap herself as soon as those words came out of her mouth. Why would she ask that question?

"Oh, No. I'm not interrupting you, am I?"

"Don't worry, I'm in the middle of something but I have spare time."

"Oh, really?" Emily had no clue what to answer.

"Well, are you free tomorrow?"

"Yes, of course."

"Is MH Road very close to where you live?"

"Yes, it is!" Emily answered with too much excitement.

"How about we meet at the western restaurant on MH Road tomorrow? What time are you free?" asked Sam expectantly.

"Sounds great! I am free all day."

"Well, let's meet at ten o'clock in the morning. Sounds good?"

"Yes! See you tomorrow, Sam."

"Bye, Emily. See you."

The call ended and Sam was pleasantly satisfied with their conversation.

He went over what he had said and. At this moment, he felt relieved.

All of a sudden, Sam realized he hadn't suggested to go by Emily's place and pick her up. Indeed, she was a girl. Was it wrong not to do that?

As a matter of fact, Sam noticed he had never had such trouble in the past when it came to asking a girl out. He was feeling incredibly anxious. He wanted everything to go as planned.

"Sylvia! Ah--," cried Emily excitedly. After the call, she felt on cloud nine.

"Hush down! Hush down!" Sylvia held her hand in a bid to calm her nerves.

Unfortunately, Emily's scream had already attracted many customers' attention.

"Sam asked me out," she said, still unable to process what had happened minutes ago.

"Yes! I know! I can't believe it either." Sylvia was just as excited after she witnessed the romantic arrangement.

"And you said he wouldn't call me today!" Emily reminded her of what she had said. She stuck her tongue out as she boasted in front of her friend.

"Okay! I guess I may have spoken too soon." Sylvia smiled shyly, the color red soon invading her cheeks.
