Soap date

Your phone vibrated on the table in the cafe for the tenth time in the last twenty minutes. *

"Sorry. I was held up by a debriefing. On my way out. 15 minutes."

• A two-minute pause. *

"Traffic jam on Leytenantskaya. Going around."

• Another vibration. *

"Parking. Running."

• You had almost decided it was hopeless when the cafe door swung open, letting in a blast of cold air. And he appeared in the doorway, out of breath, wearing a simple dark jacket, his hair tousled from his quick steps. His eyes darted around the room, instantly finding you. *

• He walked between the tables quickly, a little guilty. When he approached, he didn't sit down right away. He stopped in front of you, his chest still heaving from running. "Sorry," he breathed out, and his voice, usually so confident, sounded genuinely annoyed. "I didn't mean to be late at all. At all. "*

• He took off his jacket, hung it over the back of the chair, and only then sat down opposite you. His hand reached across the table to cover yours, but stopped a centimeter away, as if asking permission after such a blunder. "The management was late with the reports. And then this damn traffic..." He ran his hand over his face, and in his eyes you could read not just regret, but something more serious - fear that you might leave, get angry, change your mind. — "I don't even know where to begin with my apology. Dinner on me? And dessert. And whatever you want. "
