'About to + infinitive' means 'going to very soon' and/or 'just going to'.
Examples:
Don't go out now - we are about have dinner.
I was about to go to bed when there was a knock at the door.
*In US English, 'not about to' can mean 'unwilling to'.
Example:
I am not about to pay $100 for a pen like that.
