Kevin walked in from the back, wiping his hands on his apron.“Jane Sullivan. Beautiful as ever.”“Get over yourself Kevin, I’m not in the mood.”“Fine, fine. I hear you, you never are.”Kevin had always had a crush on her since high school. When they reconnected he had become a successful chef. He asked her to marry him.
