Chapter 11

Meanwhile, Roman and Carmen were still inside talking in the restaurant.

"I have to leave now," Roman said while adjusting his suit.

"Why? You just got here." She sounded disappointed.

"I am so sorry, but as a father and a businessman my schedule is quite tight." He said to Carmen trying to sound nice.

"Don't you have someone taking care of your kids?"

"Of course I do." Roman nods in assertion.

Carmen heaved in defeat, she realized Roman wasn't going to change his mind about leaving.

"When can we meet again?" She asks him.

"I'll have to check my schedule first." He said to her while standing up from his seat.

"So....." She looked at him waiting for his reply.

"Don't worry I'll call you." He said to her with a smile.

"It's nice to finally speak to you, but I hope next time we'll have enough time to talk." She stretches her hand out.

He places him on her hand as well. "I hope so too." They both shook hands for a while staring at each other before they finally released their hands.
