No, she'll be here soon

"No thank you, everything is perfect" you answer to the waiter with a smile but he can't even see it as his eyes on stuck on your chest. You look around. the restaurant is half full, mostly couples on date like you. You wonder if your wife is sitting somewhere in there.

Minutes later, a tall man enter and smiles as he sees you waiting alone before he heads to you.

"Hello beautiful, is this place free ? Who would leave a pretty woman like you alone ?" he asks as he sits down before you have time to invite him.

You notice the chain around his neck and think about how similar it is to your wife's so you're reassured, pretty sure it's her. After all, she made your suitcase, she knew what you would be wearing.

"Sorry, waiter" he calls. "Me and the lady will be ready to order" he says before you even have the time to look at the menu. "I'll have the steak, medium rare, and she'll have the parmesan pastas. We'll both have your best bottle of red and keep it flowing please" and he winks at the waiter.
