Dear Future Husband

March 9, 2019

Dear Future Husband,

I told my parents that Kendra, Alexia, and Meg were picking me up to go out to dinner tonight, and hoped they wouldn't want to come out and say hi or notice that it was actually Grant's car in the driveway.

I don't think I've ever lied to my parents before about going out, let alone about anything else. I felt so... bad. I felt rebellious and it was exhilarating. I know I sound stupid, but I'm not like this if you haven't noticed. I'm not the person to have secret "affairs", if you will.

Yes, I had to keep this a secret, at least for now. I didn't know where this was going to go and I wasn't quite ready to tell my parents or Clarissa that I was with Grant (if we are even with each other, I don't know).

If we did get together, I didn't know what I was going to do though, I had to tell my parents at some point, but how? Would they even let me? They had to, they would understand.

We didn't text all day, except for tonight's plans. It just built up more anticipation, besides, there would be plenty to talk about tonight.

Grant just texted me, he's here. I have to hurry.

Xo, Alina
