(Disclaimer: Tigreb perspective)

We sat at the dinner table. Kale was next to me, and Max just before of me on the other side or the table. He was looking at the necklace on his hand. I question myself about what he was thinking.
The table was full of food but everyone was bearly eating. Than Kale broke the silence.
"Tigreb, would you like to move here? " he asked.
Everyone stared at him in silence, but after sime seconds Max lowered his gaze.
"I.. isn't that too soon?" I asked in confusion turning my eyes back on Kale.
He grabbed my hand, smiled and looking directly at my eyes said: "I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable, it is just that I waited so long to see you again and I can't seem to be able to let you go now. You are very precious, you know that. "
This man is still playing this dirty tricks. Is he mad?
"Well we aren't even engaged yet so I think you have to wait a little for that. It will not look well if I move to someones house so suddenly. " I answered.
"Son, I think she is right, you don't have to fasten things so much. You are still young and you need time to think about it. " Kale's father said.
"I'm sure I won't change my mind about Tigreb, but I guess I understand that this may look unexpected. .. Tigreb, don't worry, I don't want people to talk behind your back, I will protect you image. "
I left a faint smile, a little relieved that he didn't force me so soon and said: "Thank you! Should we continue eating now, the food will get cold. "
"Of course, of course! " Kale replied.

After finishing eating we drank some tea and than got up to return home.
“Goodbye, darling! ” Kale said kissing my hand.
I pulled my hand back quickly and after saying bye I went inside the car.

I layed at the bed without even taking my bag of the shoulder. Than after some minutes I felt my phone vibration. “Who could be calling at this hour?” I asked myself.
I opened my bag only to see that the one that was calling was Max.
I opened it up and said "Hi! ", a little sceptical.
I had called him 16 times today and he hadn’t answered and now he is the one calling.
“What is it?”I asked.
“Did you arrive home?”he asked.
“Yes, I did just some minutes ago.”
“Good than I’m coming in.”he said and closed the phone.
