#27 : Thinking Of You

Taylor returns to her home in the afternoon, by Abigail giving her a ride home. Taylor furrowed her brows when she saw a luxury car that must've belonged to Harry. Harry's car had been parked in their front yard, as Abigail stopped her car beside it.

"Are you expecting guests, Taylor?" Abigail asked, glancing at the car. Taylor nodded her head.

"He was supposed to come at dinner with my family tonight." Taylor removed the seat belt she was wearing and hugged Abigail briefly.

"Thank you for today, Abi. I'll call you later." Taylor said before reaching for her shopping bag and getting out of Abigail's car.

Taylor walked towards her house, glancing at Harry's rental car. Why did Harry come this afternoon? Wasn't he supposed to come tonight?

Taylor enters their house and finds her mother cleaning the living room. Andrea stopped what she was doing and approached Taylor.

"Finally, you're home. How was your day with your two best friends? " Andrea asked, giving a short kiss on Taylor's cheek. Taylor went to the couch and dropped her shopping bag on the floor and sat on the sofa.

"Fun and tiring, Mom. Abigail and Karlie took hours just to buy one dress for each of them. And then, we went to the karaoke place that they were talking about. Just to hear how good Abigail's voice is, but honestly, she could break the glass around her. "

"Oh, I'm sure she'll get better at singing. She just needs a bit of practice." Andrea commented. Taylor nodded her head in agreement and leaned her back against the back of the sofa.

"Taylor, why don't you take a shower now? You don't want to make someone wait, do you?" Andrea asked, winking at her daughter, but Taylor frowned.

"What do you mean?" Taylor asked in surprise.

"Harry arrived half an hour ago. He's chatting with your father in the backyard. He asked for our permission if he could take you to out for dinner tonight. So get ready. Dress up and get dolled up for him." Taylor bit her lower lip at the teasing words of her mother.

"Mom, please don't tease me like that. And he only invited me to dinner to talk about work, considering he's my boss. And also, I don't need to be pretty for him. It's only dinner, mom. ”

"All right, fine. Go take a shower and make your look presentable. He seems like a good man, you know? " Andrea urges Taylor to hurry. Taylor signed and hurried to her room.

Taylor had just finished taking a bath with a towel still wrapped around her body. Taylor opened her wardrobe and looked for clothes she wanted to wear.

For some reason, Taylor was glad to see Harry soon. Because it's been almost a full day, and Taylor hasn't met nor seen Harry yet. A moment later, Taylor was silent and frowned as she realized that she was getting too excited and too happy when she was just going out for dinner with Harry. Taylor shook her head and reached for one of the black dresses she had. A black dress with a slight touch of white stripe on the left side. The dress stopped at Taylor's mid-thigh, and because of that, she wore some matching black stocking to go with her dress.

Taylor looked at herself in the mirror. Taylor sighed as she saw her own reflection of herself in the mirror, she wasn't used to seeing herself wearing these types of short dresses. Taylor even contemplated if she should change her dress when a sudden knock was heard. Taylor sighed and walked to open the door. Andrea entered Taylor's room and smiled.

"Oh sorry, I thought you were ready." Andrea commented, folding her arms before her chest.

"Do you know what time it is? Nearly half past seven in the evening. " Andrea warned. Taylor glanced at the clock hanging on the wall of his room.
