Joel pushed her chair in and joined her in his seat across the table. A smile spread across his face as he took in the sight of her. She looked gorgeous, and a part of him wondered if she dressed this nice for him? Of course she did, he thought, she probably sees it as just a business meeting.
He listened to Tasha explain that he helped her get out of a blind date that she had no desire to go to, and he couldn't help but grin. He wanted to ask why her mom was trying to set her up, and comment one how it wasn't the 1800s anymore, but he didn't want to offend her. And he didn't know the whole story. She then apologized for taking so long to work together and he waved his hand in the air. " No no. My life has been just as crazy, and I have my daughter too. Trust me, I understand busy. But I'm glad we're doing this."
A waitress came to their table and took their drink orders and left just as quickly as she came. After she left, Joel pulled a brochure out of his pocket. "This is basically an invitation to our football camp this year. We think Isaac could meet a few other kids his age with problems similar to his. It's a full day of practice, food and fun. I know it's asking a lot to pull you from work for a whole day to chaperone this, but we promise you'll have fun too. And like I told you through text, we're going to set you up with some game tickets and a jersey and other good stuff. And that's just because I know you don't know much or care much about football, but if you decide to, well, I expect you to become a. Giants fan."
