<div style="text-align: justify;">Angelique felt that she might have said the wrong thing when Kyle stopped and looked at her that way. The following silence made her feel uncomfortable and anxious. Was she supposed to say something? Well, obviously, as it was her question to cause this awkward moment. The problem was that Angelique had no idea about what she was supposed to say.<br/><br/>Nodding when Kyle turned the handle of the spoon to her side, Angie started serving herself in silence, her mind still trying to find something to say to break that awkward moment.<br/><br/>When Kyle finally replied, Angelique sighed in relief. She had really spoken without thinking, and had not even considered her question might bring unwelcome memories for him.  His words caused her to sigh again. She was right. He had been hurt by their break-up, even after such a short time together. Worse, he still remembered it. The only thing that made Angie feel a little bit better was that he didn’t seen to bear a grudge on her.<br/><br/>“To old times”, she replied, touching his glass with hers. Angelique was about to say something, but she stopped herself as Kyle started talking again. “I’m sorry, honey”, she apologized sincerely. “I think I was too young and self-centered to realize I was hurting you”, she admitted, leaning forward and touching her old friend’s hand. “I’m really hoping I have become better than I was back then”, Angie completed, before pulling her hand away slowly.<br/><br/>Taking a moment to finish serving her plate and trying the food, Angelique gave an approving nod. “It’s just perfect for me, Kyle. I will need to repay that with a really nice meal”, she replied with a smile. <br/><br/>His questions about what she used to do for fun and about her family made Angie nod. She was a bit distracted, but soon retrieved his words and finally replied. “Oh, just about anything, to be honest. I’ve been needing to relax a little, so I think an amusement park would be fun for a change”. She sipped the wine before continuing. “Apart from one of my sisters, who is currently living in Florida, everyone else is still around. Mom and dad, my older brother and sister, grandma… just about everyone. I will have to pay them a visit, of course. You’re welcome to join me, but I don’t want you to feel like you have to. Okay?”.<br/><br/>After this comment, she attacked her plate again. It was obvious that Angelique was really hungry.</div>
