Marie

After two weeks of "causal meetings" as Karter calls it, Karter finally asked me out on a date. I didn't want it to be something really fancy so Karter invited me to have dinner with him and Millie. I was reluctant at first but later on I agreed.

So right now I'm getting ready for my date. I put on a sky blue flowy dress that falls to my knees. I decide to wear white high heels as they would looks great with the contrast. Karter wanted me to come over by 7 and his house is almost 45 minutes away from mine so at 6:15 I head to my car.

After a good 45-50 minutes, I reach Karter's mansion. I park my car close by and walk towards the house. The door was opened by a sweet old lady who told me she was Karter's housekeeper and her name was Brenda.

As soon as I walked inside I think I caught Millie's attention as she came running to me, "Marie!" I noticed that now she can pronounce my name properly.

I bent down to hug her, "Hi there." I smile.
