23 A DAY WITH LITTLE NYO (2/2)
Before the they left for dinner Zunnie and Nyo went to the main mansion to say hello to Mr. Luo. He was glad to have visitors and tried to get them to stay for dinner but Zunnie declined since she promised Nyo a dinner at the restaurant he saw on the television.
The restaurant Nyo mentioned was a luxurious French restaurant Zunnie had dined at a few times. Le Mange, an exquisite French fine dining restaurant opened in Italy a year ago. Zunnie had fallen in love with French cuisine from her numerous trips with her family. The first time she traveled to France had been with Sanua for her birthday and she loved it.
Seeing how ecstatic her darling Nyo gawked, Zunnie smiled and ruffled his neatly brush black hair.
The employees were familiar with Zunnie since she was a regular. Seeing she and Nyo walk in, they welcomed them warmly. Zunnie chose to sit at her usual spot and listened with a smile as Nyo rumbled on about how happy coming to the restaurant made him. He began taking pictures like a child at a candy store.
”Lyle and Rubio are going to be so jealous when I show them these pictures.” He said while giggling.
In Zunnie's eyes a warm glow lingered. Hearing him speak melted her heart; she was so grateful he was part her life.
”I'm glad you like it buddy. What do you want to eat?”
”Umm… I want everything!”
”Haha, you're funny. Let's settle for what you can eat today. We can always come back.”
”Mhm…then I want steak, fries, garlic lobster and champagne.”
”What do you know about champagne?” An amused Zunnie asked, hearing him mention he wanted champagne.
”Well there was champagne on TV so, I want it too.”
”Champagne has alcohol, but I will get you the one without... okay.” She informed him and called over the waitress.
”Mhm…”
”Nyo, I want to speak with you about school, is that okay?”
”Zunnie sis you know I don't want to be a painter, right?”
”Mhm…but I want you to know it's okay to not have something you want to be right now, you're still young. You can be whatever you want, I'll still love you since you'll always be my little Nyo.”
A gleeful Nyo smiled, ”Yup Zunnie sis, but I can't be your little Nyo when I'm in high school, okay…because I won't get any girl friends.”
Zunnie was so entertained by his plea, she burst out laughing. Ah, her little boy was growing up.
