Anika
A few days later, Jai texted me about our planned date:
Jai: Hey, how's it going?
Me: Hey there! I'm good. What about you?
Jai: I'm good too.
Jai: So, there's something I wanted to ask you...
Jai: Will you go out on a date with me, Anika?
I couldn't stop grinning while reading these texts. It was a mix of surprise and happiness. This whole arrangement was formal, and I didn't expect him to formally ask me out. It was incredibly sweet of him.
Me: I'd love to go on a date with you, Mr. Singhania.
Jai: Great! When are you free? Let's discuss the place and time.
Me: Anytime works for me.
Jai: Awesome, got to run. Catch you later, beautiful.
Just then, my boss walked by my cabin, and I had to quickly appear busy, so I left my phone without replying. She called me into her office shortly after.

The following morning, Jai's message greeted me:
Jai: Good morning!
Jai: Are you free today?
We figured out a convenient time and place to meet. I felt like a kid in a candy store, excited about the upcoming date.
Since I'd be going straight from work, I had to pick my outfit beforehand.
After around 10 minutes of rummaging through my wardrobe, I settled on a white top which was more like a cardigan, paired with high waisted black jeans. I slipped into white heels and left my hair down.
