Chapter 78-01

After a wax, pedicure, make-up, and a lesson of walking in heels, I was finally ready. Destiny fluffed up my curls, spraying a little more hairspray. "There," she smiled. "All set."

I reached up to feel the bump that held my bangs back. "Thanks, Destiny." I said.

"No problem," she shrugged. "It's what I do best."

I glanced out the window and gasped. "He's here! I gotta go!" As fast as I could, I wobbled over to the door on iffy heels. I opened the door, flashing one last smile at Destiny before stepping out of the house and shutting it closed behind me. I grasped the clutch purse she had let me borrow and waited at the edge of the steps. But Josh was frozen at the hood of his pick-up, staring opened mouth. I found myself laughing as I flitted down the steps, smiling ear to ear.

I stopped in front of him, twirling. "Do you like it?" I asked, stumbling as the world spun before me.
