Chapter 2
"Oh Jon, he's so cute. Is he yours?"
"Yeah", Jon blew hard, "I'd like you to meet Garfield."
"So this is who you were talking to earlier." A small smirk spread across Sabrina's face.
"Jon, it's ok if you like to talk to your pets. When I was a kid, I had a dog named Princess, and we'd have tea parties together."
By now, Jon's face was as red as a fire-truck.
"Hi Garfield, how are you today?"
He purred as she cuddled him.
" Oh Jon, he's so cute, let's take him with us."
Sabrina held Garfield in her lap throughout the entire car ride. Jon looked over and saw Garfield with his eyes closed, acting as cute as can be. When they arrived at the restaurant, Sabrina made a glance at Jon and said:
"Should we leave him in the car?"
"Yes."
Garfield tried to whimper enough to get Sabrina to take him in with her, but she just gave him a sad look and said:
"Sorry Garfeild."
Garfield looked at the clock: 8:10. They'd only been in there for 10 minutes. Garfield hoped that Jon would make some stupid comment or start drooling over the waitress, and get Sabrina ticked off. After another 5 minutes of silent aloneness, Garfield heard a ringing. It was a cell-phone. It couldn't have been Jon's; his was in the shape of a pig. It must've been Sabrina's! The phone rang one more time, and then a message came on.
This is Sabrina, I'm not available right now, and so if you could please leave your name and number after the beep, I will get to you as soon as possible. Thanks. BEEEEEEP.Hey baby, it's Derek. My meetings ended a couple of days early I was calling to ask if you wanted to go to the Grill House tonight, but I guess I'll just go solo and maybe we can get together for breakfast. Talk to you later sweetie. The call ended.
