I panicked again so I asked; "is there something wrong with your coffee"? I thought it was a smart thing to say. He said with his soft voice and his beautiful accent;
"no darling I just wanted to ask you something".
"O that's okay".
"Well (he swallowed) do you maybe wanna hang out sometime, maybe"? He asked very nervous which made me kinda more comfortable.
"Well yeah, I would love too! Wait I'll give you my number", I reached out for his phone when Tessa started to lick my hand. We both laughed.

I was home and for the first time in two years I wasn't scared, I was just the happiest girl in the world when I realized. Shit, I didn't even gave him my name!

BEEP BEEP BEEP

Ugh it was morning again. I wanted to slap my alarm clock but I don't have one so I slapped my phone, god I'm dumb. Now I can't use my phone anymore, but I didn't care much I only used it as an alarm. It's an iPhone four, I can't afford anything else. And I don't know anyone so who's gonna text me anyway?
And then it hit me. The cute guy with the dog named Tessa!!! He was gonna text me!
PING
Whaaa, I screamed. It was my phone! I've got a text! I panicked and just left the phone there. I started to walk around in my apartment. If I reply now he'll think I'm desperate but if I wait longer maybe he won't be online anymore! I realized I am desperate so I picked up my phone, cut myself on the glass. And read the message.

We called for hours! I told him about how I wanted to be an actor so moved to London

We called for hours! I told him about how I wanted to be an actor so moved to London. And he told me about how he was bullied and about his family and friends. He's got such a happy life. He asked what I do for the living because he couldn't imagine paying for an apartment while only working at Jason's. I told him I actually do only work at Jason's and that my apartment was incredible cheap because off the bad neighborhood and the fact that I only have one room.

6 p.m. Tom -yeah I know his name now. He know mines to, I even told him an entire story about my name, I told him my Dutch name was Veronie but British people never pronounce it right so I changed it to Veronica and he can call me ronni- anyway, Tom told me he would pick me up at seven. I was staring at my wardrobe when I remembered. Tom said he was gonna take me some place fancy! I don't have any fancy clothes, I don't even have a simple dress! I didn't know what to do so I called my only friend in London
"Heyy honey everything alright"?

"Yeah I'm fine thanks Jason. I just wanna ask you something".

"That's okay is there something wrong"?

"No no don't you worry about me I just wondered if I could borrow a dress"?

"Well I don't have any dresses".

I laughed, I mean maybe your wife's?

"I'll ask"

"Thanks"

I heard Jason saying; sweetheart, is there a dress Veronica can borrow?!

"Why do you need a dress hon"? Said Silvia (Jason's wife)

Well a guy I met asked me out and he said he was gonna take me somewhere fancy.

"O I got you girl".

Silvia was the sweetest women you'll ever meet and she's got a very good taste.
"I've got three dresses who'll fit you"
Thank you Silvia I'll come to pick them up!
