Chapter 23: The Park
Joanna's POV
"Hey," I greeted with a smile as I approached him.
"Hey beautiful," He replied before opening the passenger door for me.
"So, what's going on? What's all this about," I asked while I buckled my seatbelt.
"You'll see." He winked
"Okay where are you taking me then." I tried my luck.
He rolled his eyes. "Same thing"
"Please, pretty please." I begged with a pout.
"Uh." He groaned, "Why do you have to be so cute?
I shrugged in response, feeling giddy already as I knew he would tell me if I continued pouting, which I did.
"We are going to the city park." He sighed in exasperation as he couldn't stand it anymore.
"Why the sad face," I asked with a chuckle pretending to be oblivious of what I just did.
