She looked up at him – one of the
few times she’d done so since they’ve been eating together. Why did he have to
be looking directly at her with that smirk and that cute dimple sunk deep into
his jaw? Why did his eyes look like golden honey with green drizzles sprinkled
in them? She could see why he was a ladies’ man. He had every physical
attribute it took to rock the title.
Jemisha cleared her throat once
more. “I, uh—okay, that caught me off guard.”
“What did?”
“Your comment about a wife and
kids. You don’t come across as the settling down type.”
“I don’t?” he asked.
“No.”
“And just how does one come
across as the settling down type?”
“Okay—I’m not sure if I want to
go down this road.”
“Nah, you opened the door. Walk
through it.”
“In my opinion, some men are more
on the playful, bachelor side of life. The serious man who doesn’t have time
for games works hard to be the man a woman needs and desires while some men are
busy playing around settling for being something temporary for whoever comes
along because they’re not serious about life. Settling down isn’t something they’re
interested in. You come across as that
type—the bachelor type.”
He smiled, unfazed by her
synopsis. “Why would you think that about me?”
“I’ve seen you operate.”
