James nodded at her recognition of him being there two years previously. And didn’t know how to take her just taking off immediately. But he wasn’t done yet. Persistence, dedication, that is something that a woman can’t help but notice, right? Besides, he was enjoying her strong will and independent nature. It made him feel like he was using his newfound confidence for something worth the pursuit.<br/><br/>James took another sip of his coffee as she went to the kitchen. What was going he to do to get to know this beautiful woman? He had no place else to go for the time being and he realized that he was going to need a place to stay. Other than that, he started wanting to paint her, real bad, and he couldn’t help but watch her check on the couple looking ready to head out sooner or later. Her skin was flawless, her eyes were completely entracing. Great inspiration.<br/><br/>As she took off to the back she covered her eyes with a hand and that was a blow to his gut. Was she bothered by his eye contact? But then again maybe she was trying not to cry in public. That must be it, did he bother her? That wasn’t his intention, what could be wrong? He had to ask and as soon as she back. And then out she walked, wafting the smell of delicious breakfast in the air.<br/><br/>James spoke softly but assertive enough for Anna to hear, “Hey, are you alright? I’m sorry if I am a bother, I just really want to get to know you better? I don’t know if we could go do something some time, after you get out of work? If not I mean, I understand, I’ve been quite forward.”
