asked.
    “ True
story,” he said. “We used to get a lot of walk in guests
and setting the table in a short time was one of the things my mother
demanded you master. You know, just in case we were in a situation
where all the house helps were out or something.” Julie’s
eyes were now wide.
    “ Did
I ever tell you just how bourgeoisie you sound sometimes?” she
asked.
    “ What
is that supposed to mean?” he asked as he poured her a glass of
red wine.
    “ Well,
it simply means that you sometimes come off as an entitled person,”
she said. He looked at her and frowned.
    “ You
don’t really believe that, do you?” he asked. She smiled
and shrugged.
    “ Not
really. No. But that’s just because I know you,” she said
as Steven put a plate in front of her. “This looks really good
babe,” she said after she inhaled the rich spicy aroma.
    “ Well,
I hope you like it,” he said as he sat down on the other side
of the table.
    “ Holy
shit,” Julie said and Steven put his fork down.
    “ Why
would you talk of defecation when we’re right in the middle of
enjoying dinner?” he asked.
    “ I’m
sorry. It’s just that…I never thought duck was this
good. I would have had it a long time ago,” she said. Steven
frowned.
    “ So
the only word you could use was shit?” he asked. Julie looked
up and smiled.
    “ If
you ain’t got it right now, you just ain’t getting it,”
she said as she pinched her nose.
    “ What
is that? Is that a song?” he asked.
    “ Yeah
actually. Chris Brown and T-Pain,” Julie said excitedly. Steven
laughed and took a bite. “What’s so funny?” she
asked.
    “ Well,
the way you Americans name your artists,” he said.
    “ Wait,
we do not name our artists. They name themselves. And don’t sit
there all high and mighty. You guys have some pretty weird names for
your musicians too,” Julie said as she took another bite.
    “ Oh
really? Like who?” Steven asked. Julie looked at him and felt
her mind go blank.
    “ Okay,
I can’t think of anyone right now. But there are a number of
them. I’ll let you know when I come up with a name,” she
said before she took a sip of her wine. She looked at him and smiled.
“By the way, you haven’t won this argument.”
    “ I
never said I have,” he said as he took a sip of his own wine.
“How’s Meg?” he asked. The smile on Julie’s
lips slowly faded.
    “ She’s
okay now. She has just been under a lot of stress lately,” she
said.
    “ What
do you mean? And what is this stuff about her ex?” Steven
asked.
    “ Byron
Sadler, top of the range ass hole,” she said. “They have
a son together and he made it clear that he never wanted anything to
do with being a parent. So, since that boy was born, it has always
been Meg doing whatever she can making sure that he has everything he
needs. When he finally decided he wanted to be a father again, she
made plans for Charlie, her boy, to spend time with his father. But
now that the ass hole finally has a steady job he suddenly decides
that he wants full custody,” Julie explained. She took another
bite. “I think the pressure was just too much. I mean there was
nothing wrong with her. She was just fatigued and a bit iron
deficient,” she added.
    “ So,
where is she now? The hospital?” he asked. Julie shook her
head.
    “ Home.
The doctor wanted her to stay the night for observation, but she
wouldn’t hear of it. She just wanted to go home. Her aunt went
with her and she has some sedatives and supplements. So everything
should be just fine by tomorrow,” she said before she took
another bite. She looked at him and took a long, deep breath.
    “ What?”
Steven asked.
    “ Sometimes
I think I just want us to remain like this. Simply happy for the rest
of our lives. No complications or anything,” she said. Steven
smiled and nodded.
    “ I
want the same thing,” he said. He suddenly felt his heart
beating harder and faster. Was this it? Was this the chance he had
been waiting
