Chapter THIRTY
Theme: A meeting with his son
BELLA'S RESTAURANT
Ace had sounded thrilled at the chance to finally meeting his son that he had called Ivy that morning to see if the meeting would still be possible. Ivy had told Leroy after cleaning the house that he would be meeting his father. He had jumped in excitement, had talked nonstop about what it would be like to finally know his dad. He had rushed his mom, determined not to be late for his first date with his dad and they had arrived twenty five minutes early. Ivy watched as her son jumped each time the door bell jangled announcing the presence of a customer.
“What's the time mom?” Leroy asked feeling tired of jumping up at every sound of the door bell.
“The time is 2:35 p.m” Ivy answered, never liking the idea of Ace turning up late on the first day of meeting his son.
Leroy sighed. “He'll be here right? Probably he is busy at work.” He nibbled on his lower lips.
