"SQUEEEEEE!!!" I squeal at the diner table after looking at my phone.
Sondra looks up, "What is it Kenzi?"
"Liam asked me to go on a date with him!" I say jumping up and down, "Can I go?"
Blake smiles, "Of course, Sondra and I have always loved romance."
"Thank you thank you thank you!!" I say practically flying.
"Do you need me to buy you a new dress perhaps?" Sondra asks,
"I'm fine," I say, "I'm sure I can choose from the many many many designer dresses in my closet."
Sondra smiles, "Okay, suit yourself,"
However, Zendaya looked mopey about this.
"What's wrong?" I ask, "Did something happen?"
She looks up surprisingly, "Oh! Uhh no. I was just thinking....about Nicki, yeah."
Huh, that explains why she was mopey.
"Okay," I say, " Can I please be excused? I'm going to pick out a dress for my date!"
Sondra laughs, "Yes you may."
I ran upstairs and into my closet. The closet is more like a live-in closet. It's bigger than the room that Luna and I had in the Orphanage. I feel a pain in my guts when I think about Luna. But I push the thought away. I had picked out a pink designer dress but then I found out that when I wear dresses, I look really bad. So I chose out a white smock off-the-shoulder crop top with a strawberry pink vest. I wore jeans and heels. Black heels. I've never ever worn heels before so I wanted to give it a shot. Then I go downstairs and yell,
"Ta-Da!"
Sondra looked surprised, Blake dropped his plate and it clattered against the floor, Zendaya, well, she didn't notice me.
Uh oh, did I do something wrong?
"I'm sorry," I say, "Was I not supposed to wear a crop-top? I'll change."
Sondra stops me, "No sweetie, it's just that you look so wonderful, I just couldn't believe it." Blake nodes
I felt relieved. Phew! "Thank you," I say
Sondra says, "Blake will drop you off at Liam's house and then you two can go on your date."
After Blake dropped me off at Liam's, We go to this place called "Fleet Restaurant".
During our date, Liam gave me a beautiful ring with words carved into it.
Liam ❤️ Kenzi
Awww, he feels the same way about me as I do about him. So romantic. After we finished, Liam paid and we went to my house, where he dropped me off. Then he waves goodbye and leaves.
I think I like-like (okay, love) Liam.
