The girl seemed happy and that was all that mattered to the man. He then showed her to his limo and took the girl to the restaurant as promised. He then found a place to sit. Water with ice was placed right in front of them along with the menus. Salomon new it was a good time to strike up a chat with the girl. "You must have a lovely family." He commented. He wanted to know her place within her family. It could make a difference if he really did want to make the offer.

~Yukihara Tanaka~ Fortunately for Yukihara she didn't have to walk to Linguini's because Salomon had a limo around the corner. The weather was nice but her heels wouldn't do well after a while of walking. She never been in a limo before so she was speechless yet giddy at the same time the whole ride to Linguini as she messed around with some of the features of the limo. The feature abused the most was the refrigerator, which opened several times along the way just to admire it. This was definitely something she wants to get if she ever gets famous as a guitarist. Once at Linguini's, her excitement continued but she was a bit more active now that she is out of the limo. Of course, she remained composed on the outside for the most part with the exception of the big grin on her face so she doesn't embarrass Salomon and herself. It is only lunch hour but the restaurant is busy. Whoever the owner of this place must be living the good life with the amount of business she is getting. She couldn't get enough the atmosphere of the place: it was rustic yet elegant at the same time even as they were seated at a table. Just as she opened the menu, Salomon commented that she "must have a lovely family". She replied,
"Well, my family as it is right now is doing alright. Things haven't always been good ever since my brother died...I don't remember anything about him because I was too little. For the rest of my childhood, they protected me all through high school because I was their only child left...sometimes they overdid their protection but I don't blame them and I still love them...I just didn't make it easy for them because they're human and I...I don't know what I am. Sometimes I'm human...sometimes I'm not...its not easy to explain because I'm not so sure myself...s-sorry. I'm sure you didn't want hear that kind of talk in a nice place like this."

Salomon listen to what she said. She was more of a free bird, but his offer may help her become more of a free bird if she used it the right away. "I'm sure your parents are looking looking out for you. If I had my own child I would do the same. I would try to be there as long as I could." He told her. He would make a slow approach on his idea. There was no need to rush it and excite the girl too much. "Don't worry too much about what we talk about, as long as you don't cry."

~Yukihara Tanaka~ Yukihara rubbed the back of her head for a few seconds as she thought about her parents. Certainly everything they did for her was all for her best interest, even if it meant they overdid their protection from time to time. For someone whose parents try to keep her away from people, she turned out to be quite the social butterfly. It could have due to rebellious nature of her that turned when she was in high school, but maybe she was just born to be this happy-going talkative girl. Salomon placed himself in her parents shoes despite not having children of his own, which is an indication to Yukihara that this man would make a good father if he had kids.
"Thank you...anyways. I guess a long story short is that my childhood was normal for the most part, but I wonder if it would have been easier if I wasn't 'gifted' as my parents would say and if my brother was still around...thats all there is to me and my family."
She looked at the menu to see what looked good to eat, but she had to decide whether to go safe or take a risk. There is no way she is going safe so she will not be having something simple like Chicken Alfredo. Should she have a pasta dish that was noodles with some kind of sauce? Perhaps ravioli, lasagna or baked ziti? It took her five minutes to decide what she is going to eat: Seafood Pasta. She never had an assortment of seafood all in one pasta dish, so it should be interesting to try. When the waiter came around to take their order, she ordered the Seafood Pasta dish. After Salomon ordered, or not ordered if he wasn't ready, she said to him as the waiter left to give the order to the chefs,
"So what can you tell me about you? I assume you don't have a family so...I guess my question, whats keeping you from having one? Have you just haven't found someone right for you?"

Salomon's werewolf eyes landed on the steak right away. He knew that he should have hunted down the deer last time he changed. He listened to her words about having a normal childhood and being gifted. "We're all gifted." He told her with a gentle smile. Then she asked about what was preventing him from having a family. "I do have a family. It's made up of my siblings and nieces and nephews, but what is preventing me from having one of my own is a wife. I suppose I would want a young one to have at least one child before I died. I don't care for the idea to leaving to the rest of my family. They all have things I don't like about them."

~Yukihara Tanaka~ "We're all gifted" so said Salomon. He probably had a point about everyone being gifted in the sense that every parent say that their kids are special, but would he say the same thing if she showed of what she can do? Would her power make him think differently of her? Thats a question she wants an answer to but its too soon to find out. He already went through the trouble to buy her an entire outfit and taking her here, which is something she didn't think too much about but figured she should ask him about since they are here.
"Sounds like you have a rough family...I don't quite understand why...I mean, do you love your family? I can get that there may be certain things you don't like about them, which is the same with strangers and friends, but you gotta love them no matter what right? And you...what is it thats keeping you from finding a wife...actually maybe you shouldn't answer that if you're not comfortable...I do have a question that I think its more important...I was in the spur of the moment before but now that I'm calm I need to know...why are you doing this? I appreciate your generosity but we only met on the streets just today and you got me this outfit and now lunch."

Salomon's eyes watched her as she asked about his family. "I do love them, but trust is a different question. The child of the brother after me are all stuck up, my sister and her children act like whores, and my youngest brother has some freaks for children." He answered her on why he would not leave his fortune to his nieces and nephews. If they acted like a real human for once then he would have changed his mind. "As for a wife, I didn't get one while I was young, and now that I'm old I seek a young woman who wouldn't want to marry an old man." He told the girl with a wrinkled smile. The man reached into his wallet and pulled out a picture of him as a young man and showed her. " Handsome right?" He turned his head and thanked the waiter who had brought them bread sticks and some drinks. "I now just spend my time spoiling people who don't ask me to do spoil them. If I get lucky then maybe I'll find a bride among them." The man said with a joke as he looked at the girl. If she was his bride he would totally spoil her.

~Yukihara Tanaka~ Salomon certainly has one messed up family. Everyone in his family all have these huge faults that make them seem immoral. Well, maybe she can sympathize with the youngest brother side of the family since she could be considered a freak for her powers, although she doesn't see it that way. Now what intrigued her more is that he is trying to find a wife at his age, and someone who is younger than he is. By mentioning that he spoils people who don't ask to be spoiled until he can find a bride among them, she wondered if she is someone he is searching for. She couldn't be the kind of bride he would want. After all, shes a rocker girl who behaves in childish manners. An old man like him could do better with someone more sophisticated and mature.
"You certainly have a way with women. It makes me wonder if you tried doing something like this when you're younger...I imagined no, otherwise you probably would have been married already. So...have you tried spoiling other girls? If so, how many have you tried and...well, have you ever came close to being successful?"

Salomon's wrinkled face smiled at the girl. "No. Age has beeno my teacher in how to romance girls." He answered. Every man started out a fool and grew in knowledge and age into a wise man. "I haven't spoiled many girls yet. It's only been a year since I started and I don't have as much time as I'd like." He answered her honestly. "Around the time of the full moon it's near impossible because someone goes mad." He added as if it was a type of joke. "I'd have to say that you're the closest to being successful."

~Yukihara Tanaka~ Yukihara did not expect him to say that she has been closest to successful in finding a bride. Did he really consider this childish woman a bride? She didn't know how to respond to this because no one ever considered her to be a bride. Every boy shes been with just wanted her to use that ability to turn into a supermodel or some girl that they wish they could have. This old man is not even aware of what she can do and here he is thinking that he can have this girl as his bride. What made her so special that he wanted to spoil her? Sure there had been others before her but she has to take into consideration that he did tell her she is the closest success. She didn't get what he meant when he said it's impossible around the time of the full moon, but she had to address him about the bridal situation she got herself into.
"I...well...I-I don't know what to say about that...um...I never been in a situation like this before...I guess I can only ask just to be sure I understand whats going on...you...you want me to...be your bride?"
Just as she ask this question the food had arrived. The waiter who is serving gently placed the plates down by two, told them to enjoy the meal and moved on to the other people. Despite the girl's hunger, she won't touch her food until she gets an answer from Salomon.

Salomon knew he had to pick his words wisely. He could be called a lot of things and even through into jail if she just said the wrong thing. The man didn't touch his meal and instead he looked up at the girl and smiled at her. "I wish to have a bride like you. If you go that's fine, if you stay I will promise to make you happy." He answered. He placed the ball into her court and waited for the reaction to his comment.

~Yukihara Tanaka~ Yukihara didn't think that she had to make a big decision today from meeting this man: walk away or be his bride. Personally she wasn't ready to do either of those things yet. This old man was definitely a nice guy and someone she pictured to be one of the princes from the storybooks, especially after taking a good look at him when he was younger. However, to be a bride after just meeting him seems like it was too sudden. If there was one thing her parents taught her it is not to make a rash decision. She needs to be absolutely sure about all the decisions she makes, so instead of giving him a yes or no answer, she said to him with a warm grin on her face,
"I...Its not like I'm saying yes or no...I...I just want to see where this goes...I-I only met you and it would be nice to know you even more if you think someone like me is worthy of being a bride...I figured I scared people away because...well, I act different than normal people do and it tends to make people turn the other direction...and lets just say my dating experience hasn't been successful...I'll show you what I mean if I can find a good book or something. My point is...why don't we start as friends and see where that goes. You're definitely someone I like to get to know better if you're willing to do all this for me when we just met today. Is that okay?"

Salomon was surprised. Most women would laugh and run away after he made such a comment. A smile came to the old man's face. "I like that idea very much." He responded to them getting to know each other first. "Ask any question you wish." He told her. They would start from the beginning. "Also don't be so hard on yourself. At least you aren't a werewolf and the rest of your family the pack." He added telling her that he could handle anything.

~Yukihara Tanaka~ Much like Salomon, Yukihara didn't expect him to agree wit her idea. Every boy around her age that she dated always thought that she was dumb and should do what they ask her to. Maybe dating an older guy is just what she needed to break away from the norm, but she doesn't want anything official yet. For now they should stay as acquaintances and just have friendly conversations until shes comfortable. The fact the this gentleman appeared to be much older than she is didn't bother her at all. He said to her that he shouldn't be too hard on herself and be grateful that she and her family are not werewolves. Well, that is partially true yet completely true at the same time in her current state. After she took a bite of her seafood pasta, which she couldn't help but get giddy just from the taste of it, she replied,
"Well...thats true...and false at the same time. Like I said, its easier to show with the right book but...maybe I should try and explain myself as easily as I can. You see...I have a gift...whenever I read something...it becomes a part of me...the characters in that story come to life through me...so I can become a werewolf if I read a story involving a werewolf...but seeing is better than believing so I'll try to find a book at a nearby bookstore...or I can go home after this and just pick out some random book.from there. Anyways, I guess this is where the Q and A starts right? So...what do you do for a living? Or what did you do? Whichever is the better question."
