Thank anda for the reviews! This part is a little darker, but who knows it might just bring them closer...


After Susan left mister Hamley walked over to Hugh. ‘Excuse me for being so bold, but I thought anda could use this.’, he berkata as he put a glass of scotch in front of Hugh. Hugh nodded and gave the man a polite smile, ‘Thank you.’ Just as Mr. Hamley was about to walk away Hugh spoke up, ‘I-I don’t know if anda have any time, but… would you...’, he gestured to the kerusi, tempat duduk opposite of him. ‘Sit with you?’, Hugh nodded. ‘Of course Mr. Laurie… I’m sorry Miss Susan left.’ ‘Yeah... it was my fault, I suppose I’m just not good at dating… I keep asking myself what I was thinking going on these dates. First with Mindy, which I owe anda an apology for sejak the way and now this thing with Susan… I just wish it would be easier.’ ‘I guess we all want that Mr. Laurie, but anda shouldn’t give up, I like to think everything happens for a reason, so maybe the reason these dates didn’t work out is because your hati, tengah-tengah ultimately belongs to someone else…’, Mr. Hamley berkata and got back up again as he had lebih clients to serve. Hugh gave him a polite smile as he thought about Mr. Hamley’s words, it was true, his hati, tengah-tengah did belong to someone else… someone he didn’t think he would ever deserve.

Hugh kept sitting at the restaurant thinking about his failed marriage, his failed dates, the New Year’s party in London and of course about Lisa… Mr. Hamley sometimes passed his meja, jadual asking if he was okay atau if he wanted something else to eat atau drink. Hugh ordered two lebih scotches, but when he was about to ask for the third refill Mr. Hamley interrupted him. ‘Mr. Laurie I really have to apologize for my boldness tonight, but don’t anda think that it may be a good idea if I called someone to pick anda up?’ ‘I-I…’, Hugh stumbled then sighed and handed Mr. Hamley his cell phone, who looked to see who was the first person on speed-dial. ‘Hey Hugh, how did your tarikh go?’, it was the first thing Mr. Hamley heard as he called the number. ‘Good evening Miss, I’m sorry interrupt your evening, I’m Matthew Hamley, the owner of the restaurant Mr. Laurie chose to dine at tonight.’ ‘O… Is something wrong? Is he okay?’ ‘He isn’t injured physically, but he is a little sad and he had a few scotches so I would like to ask anda if there is a possibility that anda could pick him up?’ ‘O-of course… I’ll be right there.’ ‘That would be great Miss….’ ‘Lisa, Lisa Edelstein.’ ‘I guess I will see anda in a little while then Miss Edelstein, I’m sorry for the inconvenience.’ ‘That’s okay, I’ll be there in 15.’

Lisa had immediately called a cab and got to the restaurant in about 15 minutes. When she walked in Mr. Hamley was already waiting for her and pointed to the corner Hugh was currently sulking in. ‘Hey…’, she sat down seterusnya to him. He looked up at her and deep into her beautiful concerned eyes, ‘Liz…’, he softly breathed. ‘Hmmm, are anda okay?’, she grab his hand with one of hers and his face with the other. As she brushed his cheek he leaned into it and briefly closed his eyes then nodded, ‘Another crappy date…’ ‘After which anda decided it was time to drown yourself in scotch and misery again.’ Hugh blushed as guilt had taken over his body once again, he didn’t want to be seen like this… the least sejak her. ‘Come on… let’s get anda home.’, she berkata and helped him get up. He then started to cari his pockets and handed her his credit card as he hadn’t paid yet. After paying Lisa took him sejak the arm and led him outside to his car. She didn’t even have to ask for the keys as he just handed them to her. When they were both seated in the car Lisa grab his hand again as he turned to look at her, ‘Don’t let yourself drown in misery Hugh, it will all be okay again...’ ‘How can it be okay again, Liz? I don’t know how anymore, I’ve never been happy for a long time as anda know, but I always thought that someday maybe... anda know. And I always thought that when I met a woman that was nice and funny and smart and maybe even beautiful and I had the nerve to ask her out that then maybe… But I screwed up Liz, she was bored out of her mind going on a tarikh with me, while I made one mistake after another, I really can’t blame her for running away from me…’ ‘O Hugh…’, Lisa sighed. ‘I’m just too old for this, what was I thinking… there’s no woman in the world that would…’ ‘Hugh stop it…’, Lisa interrupted him, ‘There are millions of woman who would Cinta to tarikh you, anda are amazing, brilliant, funny, sexy, incredibly nice guy and if some woman doesn’t see that, well then she isn’t worth it.’ Hugh looked into her blue-grey eyes and slowly felt warmth returning to his body, as he gave her a weak smile and she started to drive them home.

‘My house shrunk.’, Hugh berkata as he got out of the car. Lisa smiled as she walked to her front door, ‘Yeah and it walked over to another neighborhood too.’ ‘Well isn’t that weird.’, Hugh smirked and Lisa was happy to see he was making jokes again. ‘So ehm…’, Hugh gestured at the house. ‘There’s no way I’m letting anda sulk in that big house of yours all sejak yourself tonight, you’re staying with me.’, Lisa closed the door behind them. ‘Well I guess that’s clear then.’, he smiled as they walked into the living room. Lisa turned on the TV and got two glasses of jus after which she tried to make some light conversation about the tunjuk that was currently on. She could see Hugh was feeling better and better as the tunjuk continued. When it was over they both yawned at the same time then laughed, ‘It’s been a long day.’ ‘Yeah… we better get to bed.’ ‘Hmmm’, Lisa berkata and they walked to their respective rooms together. Just before Hugh entered his room he turned to face her. ‘Thank you…’, he berkata and moved a little closer to Lisa. ‘Always…’, she berkata and he nodded as they hugged. ‘You know I’m gonna miss anda tomorrow night when I’m all sejak myself again…’ ‘Mmm me too, 3th night in a row already…’ Hugh nodded in the crook of her neck and smelled her hair letting the smell intoxicate him. ‘I don’t know what I would do without anda Liz, I mean it…’, he berkata letting go of her a little so he could look into her eyes who curiously stared up at him. Both wanted nothing lebih than to Ciuman the other, but still felt their conscience restrict them from doing so. After a little while of just staring at each other Hugh leaned in and brushed his lips so softly against hers that both of them were unsure if that really happened, then he placed a soft Ciuman just at the side of her mouth and they both closed their eyes before telling each other goodnight.

When Lisa woke up on Sunday morning it was already 10am, she couldn’t remember the last time she had slept in but it felt kind of nice. She smiled as she stepped out of katil and walked to the kitchen. When she was halfway she suddenly heard a deep voice sing and when she came closer she could also smell pancakes. ‘Hey sleepyhead’, Hugh smiled brightly at Lisa as he was making breakfast. He couldn’t help but notice how cute she looked in her oversized pyjamas and the messy hair. ‘Good morning’, she berkata happily and sat down at the dapur table. ‘So Miss Lisa, what would anda like for breakfast? I have your usual yoghurt and fruit, but because it’s Sunday I also made some lempeng, penkek with that delicious strawberi syrup anda Cinta so much and a few lempeng, penkek with little Chocolate pieces.’ Lisa smiled as he put a plate in front of her, ‘What did I do to earn this surprise breakfast?’ ‘Just being you.’, Hugh berkata and blushed a little, ‘Plus I thought it was the least I could do for anda with everything anda did for me.’ Lisa just smiled and started to eat her breakfast which she found utterly delicious as she even let out these same small moans that had driven Hugh crazy just a few days ago.

‘You know, I was thinking… maybe we should have some sort of makan malam, majlis makan malam party tonight.’ ‘A makan malam, majlis makan malam party?’, Hugh asked not really knowing what to think about it. ‘Yeah… nothing really special, I was thinking we’d just invite some Friends and have some fun…’ Hugh smiled, he knew she was still trying to cheer him up even though he didn’t tunjuk his misery anymore. ‘Sounds good… who shall we invite?’ ‘Well… I was thinking maybe just Robert and his wife and ehm… maybe Jesse, Jennifer and Omar and his wife…’ ‘Sure, anda mind if I invite Stephen too? ‘Cause I think he’ll kill me when he finds out I have a party while he’s in town and I didn’t invite him…’ ‘Well of course anda can invite him…’ ‘Hmm, let’s make some calls then.’
