CHAPTER 12

HEAVEN SENT

I call Angelina, already missing the sweet sound of her

voice. It rings a few times before she finally answers.

“ Clingy much? ” She asks in her cute voice.

“ Oh, this is nothing. I ’ m taking you out, so I ’ ll pick you up

in twenty. There ’ s a great steak house that just opened nearby, ” I

say back.

“ Aw, Nico! How kind of you to ask! Hm, give me a minute

while I think about it, ” she says.

“ Angel,” I say with little patience in my tone.

“ Still thinking! ” She shouts over the phone.

“ Angelina, ” my voice is more stern this time.

I don ’ t typically use her full name, but she ’ s pushing my

limits here, and she knows it.
