"Why did you pick me up? I can commute." Camille said.
"What time is it? Do you think I will let you commute at this late hour? Why are you working overtime? You can finish that tomorrow, I will tell Willy, that don't give you too much work in the office, so you don't have to overtime." Hans said while driving.
"What? It's ok for me to work overtime, they might say, you favor me because you are my wife, I don't want them to say anything to me." Camille protested.
"Why, did you tell them I was your husband? I thought you didn't want to let them know about us?" Hans asked her.
"Ah, only to Diane and May, I just said something, because at the restaurant before, they need your signature. They were surprised because I was using your card, so I just said it was true." Camille said.
"Ah, it's okay for you to tell them, it's okay for me to let them know that you are my wife anyway." Hans said.
Camille swallowed before saying, "You're okay, how am I? They might get angry or they might bully me when they find out I'm your wife." Camille said worriedly.
"When they bully you, I will fight them. I am the one who will fight for you!" Hans said while looking at her seriously.
Hans later stopped the car at a Grill Restaurant near the seafront.
"Oh why did you stop here?" Camille asked.
"I'm hungry, let's eat first." Hans said and he quickly got out of the car.
Camille did nothing but follow Hans, and went inside the restaurant with him.
Before they could enter they smelled the grilled food outside the restaurant. they also noticed there were a handful of customers eating out as they overlooked the sea.
The waiter immediately greeted them when he saw them entering the restaurant.
"Good evening Sir, Ma'am!" happy greetings from the gay waiter.
They smiled in responsed.
They went inside and the waiter asked them where they wanted to sit, whether outside or inside. Hans looked at her and asked.
"Where do you want to eat, here inside or there outside?" asked Hans.
"Ah, maybe just out there, looks better there." Camille said while looking outside.
"Ah ok, we'll just eat out there." Hans said.
"Ok Maam, Sir please follow me." waiter said.
Then they followed the waiter. They looked for a nice place, windy but not smoky, because they were just outside the grill.
They sat down at a table and the waiter took their order. While waiting for the order, Camille looked around. She inhaled the fresh breeze. It is cold on the skin but feels good, it relieves stress.
Later on, she felt Hans holding her by the hand. She turned to him and asked.
"Why?" she asked Hans.
"Nothing, I just missed you. Are you still angry?" Hans asked her.
She sighed and looked at the sea and she said something different.
"Why haven't you eaten yet? What time is it, there is food at home." Camille's topic change.
Hans was discouraged, because Camille did not answer his question, which means she was still angry with him.
"I'm waiting for you to come, so we can eat together." Hans said.
"Next time, don't wait for me. Sunshine is there, right?" Camille said and she withdrew the hand held by Hans.
"Sunshine is different and you are different from her." Hans said.
But she just frowned at Hans' answer.
"Camille please stop this nonsense of your jealousy! Of all people, you'll be jealous of my cousin? Tsk!" Hans shook his head.
"Your cousin is always close to you, that the only one I knew. So, do you have another woman I should be jealous of?" disgusted Camille asked.
"Tsk! Nothing! How many times I tell you and explain to you, you are the only one in my heart and I have never looked at another woman!" Hans said.
Camille said nothing and just glared at Hans, Hans just smiled at Camille's appearance.
He suddenly pinched her on the cheek and said.
"Hmm, you're really cute when you get angry." Hans said as he squeezed her cheek.
"Ouuchh! What?" and she removed Hans' hand from her cheek.
"It's painfull! You're really bad!" Camille feeling annoyed.
Hans smiled at her, while she rolled eyes at him.
Later, the food they ordered arrived. Assorted grilled foods and seafoods. Camille immediately tasted the grilled squid and shrimp and savored its delicious taste.
"Uhm, I haven't tasted it for a long time." Camille said while eating the dish.
"Really? Well, it's nice I brought you here. Why don't you eat rice?" Hans asked her.
"I'm fine here, Roland and I ate earlier." Camille said.
Hans' appearance changed when Camille mentioned Roland.
"Why Roland is with you?" Hans asked her with a serious face.
"He was the only one who waited me in the office. So, I decided to treat him dinner for his kindness." she said while smiling.
Hans didn't talk again and focus in his food.
Meanwhile, in the distance someone saw them, a reporter. He realized it was Hans, the handsome CEO in town, and immediately secretly took a picture of him while eating with Camille.
