The waiter comes with our drinks and then food. We both get busy talking about the real estate market and our plan for the year. Ivy was looking forward to the challenge again, it was always interesting and fun. It was his livelihood but her hobby.
The food was great, Tony always new nice places to eat. She didn't notice the time or the way he refilled their glasses. Ivy was feeling a bit hot and tipsy.
"Sorry Tony, just going to nip to the ladies room excuse me".
Ivy got up and he stands also. He's a gentleman and she really should settle down and play it safe with Tony or someone like him but she has been burned by the safe guy he turned into a power-hungry toad instead.
Her head gets a bit muddled thinking of the past. Ivy nearly thought that she could hear Cole talking as she walked past a private room so she kept walking to the bathroom.
