A Wild Daisy

Afraid

Charles

Summer break is ending in three days. Which means I'll have to travel soon.

I've been training this past week.

I need to see Daisy before i fly to Zandvoort.

I think I'll ask her out tonight maybe we could have dinner.

I need to tell her that I like her and I would really love to be with her.

But what if she doesn't want to?

I don't know what I would do if she says no.

Let me just ask her for dinner and see what happens.

I take out my phone and call her.

It takes a while.

She answers

"Bonjour" I hear her sweet voice through the phone and I smile like a little kid.

"Bonjour ma cheri" I say

"Are we gonna speak in French or what?" She says

"Well if you want to. I love hearing you speak French" I say to her

"Okay cheeky boy how are you doing?" She asks me.

I'm doing better than okay since I heard her voice.

"I'm okay. Summer break's ending which means I'll see you less than before and I don't know how am I gonna keep up with that" I say

She laughs

"Okay okay I'm not going anywhere you still got three days I think" she says

That means she wants to see me too.

"So.. can I ask you something?" I say

"Okaayyy" she says

"Do you.. do you wanna have dinner with me tonight?" I say a bit afraid she'll say no

But I don't think so

"What time?" She asks

So it's okay?

"Uh 8?" I say

"Is it a date?" She asks

I honestly hope it is.

"If you want it to be" I say

"Okay sure. Are you picking me up?" She says

"Immediately" I say

"Haha relax I haven't got ready yet" she says

"Alright, I'll be your chauffeur for tonight" I say with a smirk on my face.

"Okay sir I'm waiting" she says and hangs up.

I'm so happy.

It's almost six now I still have some time to get ready.

I'll go buy her flowers.

I take my keys and get out of my house heading to my car. I get in and start driving to her floral shop.

As I arrive I open the door. The bell rings.

Emelia looks at me

"Ah Charles" she says and comes to hug me.

I hug her back. She's a very lovely lady.

"How are you doing boy?" She says

"I'm fine what about you Emy" I say

"I'm good boy I'm good" she says

"So what brings you here?" She says

"Oh I have a date and I need to buy flowers. You know be a gentleman" I say
