" Good Morning sweetie " said Carlotta .

" Good Morning mom " said Carmen " Do you need help with anything ?".

Carlotta said ," Yeah . Could you get the table ready please ?".

Carmen said ," Of course " and she took out a few spoons and forks .

Just then Gray walks out of his room . " Good morning Carmen and Ms. Valdez " he says .

" Good morning Gray " says Carmen and Carlotta .

Carlotta goes to the stairs and says ," I am just gonna go and wake up the kids ." And she goes upstairs leaving Carmen and Gray alone . 

There was a bit of silence for a few seconds but then Carmen broke the silence ," So Zack , Ivy , Chase and Julia are coming back tomorrow ."

" Oh " said Gray . Then Gray came closer to Carmen and took her hand . 

He said ," Carmen , I need to ask you something ".

Carmen looked at him and said ," What is it ?".

As they were walking out of the house Gray spotted a red flower . He plucked it and kept it in Carmen's hair .They both got into a car . Gray was driving . He took her to a restaurant . They took a seat inside. Carmen could feel the wind in her hair . She felt a little tensed because this was the first time she was on a date . Gray could see that she was tensed and he asked ," Hey ... Is everything alright ?".

Carmen said ," Yeah . I'm just feeling a little tensed ."

Gray asked ," Why ?".

Carmen said ," This is my first time being on a date . "

Gray was surprised . He said ," Wait what !!! How come nobody ever asked you on a date ?".

Carmen smiled and said ," They did but I declined ".

The waiter came and asked them for their order . They both ordered Empanadas . After the waiter went They started talking again .

Gray asked ," So tell me more about yourself ".

Carmen said ," Ok . My favorite country is Mexico . My favorite food is Dulce de Leche  . My favorite color is red , Of course you know that already and my real name is Esperanza Valdez .

Gray said ," Both names suit you perfectly . But should I call you Esperanza or Carmen ?".

Carmen said ," You can call me Carmen ."

Carmen and Gray talked for a long time . Gray was cracking some jokes in the middle and Carmen's laugh made him so happy . They both walked out the restaurant and went back to their home . It was late in the night and everybody was asleep .

 When Carmen and Gray were just about to open their bedroom doors , Carmen holds Gray's hand and says , " Hey . . . I really enjoyed today . Thanks for taking me on this date ."

Gray smiles and says ," No problem . I really enjoyed spending time with you too ."

Carmen and Gray remained silent for a few seconds then Gray asked ," Will you be my girlfriend?".
