The rest of the afternoon went by in a flash. There were still no signs of Christian, outside of the flower and snack deliveries that seemed to come in regular intervals.
I popped a handful of chocolate-covered almonds into my mouth as I finished my last report of the day. The closer it got to the end of the day, the happier I got. After yesterday's painting lesson with Lucas, I really began to look forward to our future lessons.
"I wonder if we'll finish the apple painting today," I mumbled, picking up another handful of almonds.
Instead of picking them up, like I had anticipated, my hand grazed against the bottom of the crystal jar they were delivered in.
"Aw," I pouted, looking at the empty jar. It was my first time trying chocolate-covered almonds, and needless to say, they were so good that I finished the whole jar in the matter of a few hours.
When Blake came by to pick up the dishes from lunch, he gave me the jar, saying they were from Christian.
