I waited no time to text her. I sent her something simple, a simple "hey"
I waited awhile til I finally got a text back
'Hey'' she texted me back
''wats sups'' i texted her back not knowing what to say
''Nothing much hanging with my sis u?'' she responded
''thats cool i said and nm unpackin'' i replied
''So i was wondering if you would want to go hang out later like maybe get something to eat'' i asked
''Ummm sure, ik a great burger place about 10 minutes from here'' she answered
It wasnt until 10 minutes later I was at Maggie's house to pick her up. She was beautiful, like always. 6 minutes into the drive I decided to kill the mood and ask her about herself.
"So have you grown up here your whole life?" I asked
"Nope we moved here when I was 6 years old, I'm originally from Washington" she answered
"Why you move?" I asked
"Parents were going through a bad divorce and my mom wanted out so she took me and my sister and left
"Oh wow, I'm sorry" I said back
"It's fine I barely remember my dad plus I grew up with my step dad most of my life so I consider him more of my dad" she said
"Oh that's good for you guys" I said not knowing what else to say
"Yeah it's been great" she said
"And I think we're here" I said pulling into the parking lot
"Yes, this is it. Make sure you get the double decker bacon cheeseburger. It's a too die for" she said excitedly
"I'll take it" I said as they walked into the burger place.
