Two weeks had passed. Lily was at the diner where she was working until she got her nursing degree. She saw one of her favorite customers with her two year old granddaughter.
"Hi Mrs. Smith." She said.
"Hello dear."
"The usual?"
"Yes please."
"For Kimberly to?"
"Yes."
"Hi Kimberly."
"Hi." Kimberly said.
A few minutes later she came back with there food.
"Here you go." Lily said.
"Thank you." Mrs. Smith said. "Kimberly what do you say?"
"Thank you." Kimberly said.
"You're welcome." Lily said.
An hour later Lily had just delivered food to a table. She noticed someone was sitting at the table she just cleaned. She went over to the table.
"Hello." "What can I get for you?" She said not looking up.
"It's you."
"Excuse me?" She looked up and saw Roman Reigns. "I know you." "I mean hi."
"Hi." "What's your name?"
"Lily."
"Beautiful name."
"Thank you."
"So Lily, do you have a boyfriend?"
"No."
"Would you like to go do something tonight?"
"Ok." "Would around nine be ok?" "After my shift I have a class."
"Sure nine's fine."
"Ok." "I can meet you here then we can decide what we're doing from there."
"Ok." "What would you like?"
"Just coffee please."
"Alright."
Later that night Lily went home to get ready for her date. Her cell phone started to ring.
"Hello?" She said.
"Hi." Missy said. "Wanna hang out tonight?"
"I can't." "I have a date."
"You have a date?"
"Yeah."
"With who."
"You're gonna believe me." "Roman Reigns."
"What?"
"He came into the diner today and asked me out."
"Well call me when you get home."
"I will."
"Bye."
"Bye."
Lily pulled into the diner parking lot. Roman was standing outside of his car waiting for her. She got out of her car.
"Hi." She said.
"Hi." "You look great."
"Thank you." "So do you."
"Wanna go and I'll bring you back to your car?"
"Ok." They got in his car and pulled out onto the road.
"Where would you like to go?"
"I don't know."
"Are you hungry?"
"Yeah."
"Me to." "Is there an A&W drive-thru around here?"
"Yes."
They went to A&W. They were waiting in there food.
"So earlier you said you had a class." Roman said. "Are you a student?"
"Yes a nursing student."
"So you'll work at hospitals?"
"Most like a hospital." "In the pediatric unit."
"You must like children."
"I do." "Do you like children?"
"Yes I have a child."
"Boy or girl?"
"Girl."
"How old?"
"Six." He got a picture out of his wallet and handed it to Lily.
"Aw she's cute." "What's her name?"
Joelle but I call her Jojo." "Do you have any children?"
"No but I definitely want them someday." "I come from a huge family." "Going all the way back to my great-grandma." "She's eighty-nine years old but you'd never know it to look at her." "She's still in great shape."
"So how come you don't have a boyfriend already?"
"Well I- Roman's cell phone started to ring. He looked to see who is was and got an annoyed look on his face. "Do you need to take that call?"
"No." He hit the silence button. "You were saying."
"Between working at the diner to pay the bills and my nursing classes, I don't find much time to get out."
"Well I'm glad you could pencil me in."
"Me to."
After dinner Roman drove Lily back to her car.
"I had fun tonight." He said.
"Me to."
"Can I have your cell phone so I can put my number in it?"
"Sure." She handed him her cell phone.
"Here's mine." He said handing it to her. They put each others numbers in the phones and handed them back to each other. "I don't know when I can but I'd like to do this again."
"Me to."
"In the meantime expect to be hearing from me, a lot."
"Ok."
"Well goodnight."
"Goodnight." She got out of his car and into hers.
