As I stood there kicking the pavement, I did'nt know what to do next. This girl was beautiful, when she spoke chills went down my spine, and I was dumbfounded. We had just met an hour ago, and dinner was nice. I had taken small bites of my lagsanga, and wiped my mouth after every bite. She must think I'm stupid, I thought. It was my low self esteem at work again. All of a sudden she asked if I would like to go for a ride. My heart raced, I would love that, I thought. She looked at me and I almost melted. Yes, I mumbled, where would you like to go? Just for a ride, She said and smiled. Wow, I almost fell down. To think she actually wanted to go for a ride and see me for a little while longer blew me away. The fact that she hadn't run to her car and said I'll call you after dinner had blew me away. Umm.. Ummm.., I kicked the concrete again. Should we take your car, she said? Yes, I said. I walked over to the car and opened the door for her, and closed her door. Wow, I thought, she may actually like me.
