"Do you really think Rob will like it?" Laura asked

"Gee Laura, he's your husband he has to like it! Besides you won't be wearing it for long."

"Oh Millie."

Laura took the sheer negligee and put it back in its bag.

"I promise you he will love it," Millie said as Laura put the bag away.

"I really hope so, Millie," Laura sighed, only wanting to impress Rob.

Richie had just arrived home from school, and as he opened the door, Laura ordered for him to go and do his school.

"I'll see you later Laura." Millie said as she walked out the door.

She then poked her head through the door

"Don't forget to tell me how it went."

"Bye Millie." Laura replied, annoyed.

Laura then paced back and forth before she realized she had to cook dinner.

"What will get Rob going?" She asked herself.

"Mommy what are we having for dinner?" Richie asked.

"I really don't know, what would you like?"

"Gee I don't know, whatever you're cooking." Richie walked out of the kitchen and into the living room.

Rob would be home at 7:30 and Laura had until then to prepare the perfect night.

Laura sighed as she wondered what she would cook for dinner, but then it suddenly came to her. She would just order Chinese food and let Richie eat something small in his room, to keep him away for the night.

Laura knew Richie would put up a fight, since eating in his room is usually frowned upon. But tonight was different and it would just be Rob and Laura.

Laura rushed around and tried to get the house clean as quickly as she could, then she had to take a shower and make sure she looked right for the night. She just hoped that all this hard work would pay off.
