Third Person POV

It was June 14th 2019 on a rainy day Tianna bursted the doors of the library open, holding her now finished resume and cover letter. Tianna was applying for junior life guard at Darren Lake.  "The future of my job rests in my hands" she thought. As soon as she  thought that a boy bumped into her, all of the once dry papers she held were in a puddle.

"Oh I'm so sorry." The boy frantically said.
"Yeah it's totally fine I've only been working on this for three hours straight" Tianna said sarcastically.
They picked the papers up out of  the puddle together. His hand unintentionally touched hers. They slowly looked up at each other pleased, in silence.

The boy broke the silence and said

"YAY"
"If.."

"I'll help you if you go and give that boy Chris a chance".
"No I'm not calling him"

"Come on this would be your first date. You can't spend the rest of your days bothering me when I get a boyfriend."

"Haha very funny........ I'll give him a call".

She pulled out her phone and called Chris she it the phone on speaker.

And just like that he hung up and Tianna had her first date.

"Happy". Tianna said sarcastically.
"Yup, and don't frown you don't need wrinkles on your big day". She said in a singsong way.
"What am I going to wear? "
