Chapter 4 – Dating time
If you ask me what the perfect start for a day is I would say some fresh eggs with bacon and my favourite movie on TV. Guess what? That was how my morning started. It was now the second day in my new home and I felt still like I was dreaming. That house had just everything I needed. There was no annoying unpacking. Okay yeah except my cloths and a bit personal stuff, but with that I had been done in an hour after I arrived here. The only bad thing was that it felt a bit lone here. This house needed to be filled with a bunch of kids. I would prefer that they would be mine but hey, adoption had always been a good option in my sight. For now the bigger question was if I should try to find a job or if I should try my luck as an unknown painter in a new city. I guess I needed a job.

But not now. Now came my favourite scene of the film. The policeman saved the young woman he had loved his whole life out of the hands of a criminal who had wanted her just for himself. Then they kissed. Oh how much I adored this movie. Probably I found already my cute policeman to save me from a loveless life. It was just 10 a.m. in the morning so I guess Maruice wouldn’t be too happy to hear already from me. After all he had a night shift. Well, better wait a bit.

I knew that this house hadn’t been used for a while and so it was not surprising that the sink needed a bit time to shine again. I looked around, but it seemed as if the sink was the only thing I had to fix or better I had to clean it.

It was still pretty early and so I decided to start a new painting. I needed to make myself a good portfolio to be ever seen as a professional artist. By now my results were … whatever. I had time to improve my skills.

After several new beginnings, some not nice words when it didn’t end up the way I imagined and some finished pictures I decided that it had been enough for today. Then I couldn’t wait any minute longer. I had to call Maurice.
“Hey sweety. Do you remember my promise?”
“Yeah sure. Shai right?”
“Sure. I know you couldn’t get me out of your mind.”
I heard a soft chuckle from the other side of the line.
“How could I?”
“Listen, you and me, we will spend the evening together. I will make us a little dinner and you can tell me all your cop stories.”
“Sounds like a plan. I have to work until 6 p.m. but then I am yours for the rest of the day.”
“Good. Do you know my address?”
Well that went better than expected. I gave him my address and he promised me to show up in time. After all, he had said, you can’t let a girl like me wait. I had a date. I just hope that he liked salat. I was not the best cook but the way this conversation had gone I was pretty sure I could also serve him old hard bread and he wouldn’t mind.

I still had some hours until my date and so I decided to call the nice people to hang out with me. They all agreed and I wondered if all artists had the whole day time to do whatever they liked.

We ended up painting in my garden. It was nice to have someone around while I painted.

Another good factor was that as soon as the guys, Fabian Huppertz and Dominic Freys, saw the poor garden they started to tend it.

Anne Peters (left) and Monica Löhrer decided to paint a bit with me. Turns out that they werent really good at it. I guess just cause you are into art didn’t mean you can really paint. But hey, we had a nice time and so the time until Maruice came over passed faster.

I had to admit that I even forgot the time a bit. I had just started to cut the tomatoes when I hear a knock on my door.
“Come in, it is open!”
So now I really had no time left to make me fresh before my date.

Maruice joined me in the kitchen. He smiled all over the face like a child who got this favourite toy.
“I guess your promised dinner isn’t finished yet, cutie?”
“I probably forgot a bit the time. It won’t take very long anymore. Maybe you just sit down and I will finish it.”

While I was preparing our salad we chatted about the usual things. Family, friends, movies, funny cop stories and so one. Maruice lived in a police WG and so all of his roommates were colleagues. He told me that it was sometimes hard to switch off if you have always the same people around. Then he asked me if I knew why this house was so cheap.
“There was a murderer a few years ago, right?”
“Right. It was the first time I had been called to a such a case. Do you know about the victim?”
“She was quite young as far as I know. it is very tragic.”
"It was hard for her parents. In 15 years of being a police officer in Windenburg I had never seen such a sad case. We never could solve the case. It is hard to not think about it while I am here."
I know I should may care more about what had happened here but I liked more to focus on the present and not the past.
“Sorry, cutie. Sometimes it is hard to forget.”
It was okay. After all he saw that this was not the topic for a date.

After the little break of flirting I was glad when he started again. During the whole dinner Maruice couldn’t take his eyes of me. We flirted and made each other compliments.
http://i.imgur.com/v0f6Owk.png
I suggested to watch a movie together, but he didn’t take a seat to watch the film. He gave me a signal to stand up again. For a moment I was not sure.
http://i.imgur.com/MswaTYs.png
But then I stood up. I closed my eyes for a moment and saw our date in my inner eye again. Plum it. This was a great date. I wanted to do the next step and I was pretty sure Maruice too.
http://i.imgur.com/lxE5bPz.png
I kissed Maruice. Somehow I wished he would wear right now his uniform but hey, I took what I could get. He was surprised.
http://i.imgur.com/G47YJk6.png
First. Then he wrapped his arms around me and kissed me full of passion. Our chemistries really worked together.
http://i.imgur.com/inGI4iO.png
When he finally released me I had to take a few breaths.
“Hey, Shai. What do you think about showing me the rest of the house?”
Okay I knew definitely what that meant. I took Maruices hand and took him upstairs.
http://i.imgur.com/i05pwPY.png
Well, looks like I have to show him around another time. We barely managed it to get into the bed if you know what I mean. Normally I wasn’t that kind of girl, but I couldn’t resist. Maybe he was the right one. It was easy with him. He was handsome and had a good job. My mother would say that I should keep him and never let Maruice go again.
