Chapter 178

Melanie

I'm nervous as I wait for Weston to come home. He texted me and told me that he normally works out on Tuesdays after work, so I knew I had a little extra time. As part of the payment for working today, Kara allowed me to bring home some carne asada. So I've made carne asada fries, and I'm nervously waiting for him to come home.

Because the old Melanie wasn't a cook. She still isn't, but she's learned to be self-sufficient. And to be honest, I want to impress him. I've changed a lot. Obviously, he has too, and we have to learn each other again. And I want him to know the adult me, who is a lot less shy about things, and who has a little bit more confidence about herself.
