I finish slipping on my black floor length dress with a slit up to the knee on the right side. I was going on another date with Henry tonight. I was super excited to get some alone time together. More recently he has been busy with work. I completely understand but it's nice to be able to go out together. Just as I finish putting on my white heels I hear a knock at the door. I quickly walk toward the door being greeted with a bouquet of flowers. "Henry thank you so much." I reply. " it's no problem you deserve nothing but the best." "Henry that's the sweetest thing I've heard you say." I reply to his comment. I knew I was smiling like and idiot right now but I couldn't care less. He takes my hand and leads me out onto the sidewalk. We decided to just walk today since we were going to a restaurant that was only and 8 minute walk. We start heading towards the restaurant. Walking in silence but not awkward silence. If that makes sense it was a comfortable silence. Around 8 minutes later we arrive at the restaurant. He takes my hand "ladies first darling" he says causing a light pink tint to appear on my cheeks. I take his hand and walk through the door of the restaurant. I was greeted with a warm lighted cozy restaurant. It wasn't bummy though. It was fancy but cozy. If that makes any sense I guess. After a few minutes we were taken to a table in the far back of the restaurant. Henry managed to pull out my chair for me before I even got the chance to think about doing it myself. "Thank you" I reply softly. "Again, darling it's no problem" I hear him say.

Around 20 minutes later our food arrives and I am in awe. Has Henry and I eat we make some small talk about work and Vicky and just how life has been in general. "Darling do you want to come back to my place?" He asks has I take the last bite of my food. "Oh yea sure". I mainly said yes because I hadn't seen Vicky in a few days. Vicky had become my best friend. Vicky might be better than Henry. But not yet at least. A few minutes later we pay for the bill. Well Henry did he didn't let me pay. We started walking towards his apartment it was a bit further than mine but I didn't mind. We walked In comfortable silence holding each others hand. It was simple but amazing, and comfortable. In this point in time I had a love interest. I had a best friend. I was happy for the first time in a while. I was happy.

I wake up to the sound of my alarm going off. I turn over smacking my alarm off angrily. I make my way to my bathroom changing into black sweatpants and a white cropped top. I also decided to put on a cardigan since it was October and I live in London. I decide I'm to lazy to put on makeup today and just throw my hair into a ponytail. I throw on my name tag. And start walking towards the kitchen I grab a water deciding not to get coffee today and head out the door. I make my way towards work arriving around 8:45am. I was definitely going to have a boring work day. I make my way to the return car making sure that all of the returned books are on the cart. After I make sure that they are all on the cart I start making my way around the shelves. Placing back the returned books. Around an hour after we opened I had put back the returned books from the cart. I place the cart back in it's spot making my way behind the counter. Today I was handling the counter checking books out. It was going to be extremely boring.

I walk out of the shop carrying bags of groceries. I was over due to go grocery shopping and I geuss that day was today. I start my walk back home hoping that the ice cream won't melt, but I have low hopes. As I'm walking I get thinking. Vicky and Henry are such great people but I feel I should get out a bit more and make new friends see new places. I've always wanted to travel the world. I have never had the money to though. But I got thinking what if Vicky and I take the train to lunch in Paris . We could have a girls day, and get our nails done. It would be the start to me seeing the world. I could start to accomplish my dreams. I also need to go see my nana and papa again I haven't seen them in a while. A few moments later I'm standing in my kitchen putting away the groceries listening to Taylor swift. Taylor swift is an icon. After all the groceries are away I grab the ice cream and a spoon before walking to the couch. I set the spoon and ice cream on the coffee table. I then walk towards my room changing into my pajamas. I then walk back to the living room and turn on the tv picking some random tv shows I hadn't watched before that looked semi interesting. After hitting play I set the remote down on the coffee table and grab the ice cream and spoon. It took me a few minutes but eventually I got the container opened and started binge watching the shows. I was there for hours.

I know this chapter sucks I'm trying the best I can but I have writers block right now and this was supposed to be a filler chapter.
Again we thank my friend Layla and the countless hours of Taylor swift.
