JANE
After Diana reached the stage, Dominic couldn't come back to our table as someone or the other was always intercepting him to talk. His eyes kept darting at us.
He was worried.
I nodded at him reassuringly and he nodded back before returning to his discussion. As I shifted my attention to Antonio, I found him looking at the stage where now all the girls were, including Diana.
She looked scared, upset about something.
"She is gorgeous, right?" I asked Antonio, and he retracted his gaze before looking at me as if he was caught red-handed.
"What? Who?"
Letting out a chuckle, I said,
"Diana. Who you can't help but stare at."
He cleared his throat and coughed a little.
"Uh-no. You are misunderstanding me. I was just…trying to recognise the debutantes." He pretended to adjust his tie while looking around.
