I didn't know it yet, but today was going to be very special and it was going to change my life a lot. The day started like everyone else, I woke up, had breakfast, dressed, left the house and went to the CCPD, stopping at Jitters first to buy coffee and a cake to eat.
When I got there, I noticed that Amy was not there yet and so I went on my way to my office, being "invaded" by my Uncle Joe asking me if there was any news about my new brother. We talked for a while, until a colleague of Joe came to call him to go to a scene of a possible crime.
After ten minutes, someone knocked on my door and when I looked up to see who it was, I saw one, quite smiling, Amy. I motioned for her to come in and she did.
- Good morning, I stopped by just to confirm that we are going out tonight.
- Of course we will go! I had promised you and you know that I always keep my promises.
- And do you have any idea where you're going to take me?
- I was thinking that we could go to the shopping center, have dinner there and then we could go to the cinema. In fact I have already been watching the films that were on display and there is one that I think you will like. It's called "Antebellum".- I said showing Amy the movie trailer.
- It looks excellent to me! Well, I have to go to my secretary, otherwise I'm will be fired and we don't want that.- said Amy getting up and left my office.
The rest of my morning was extremely calm, at least for me. Amy always walked around with her colleague. At lunchtime I still asked her if she wanted to come to lunch with me, but unfortunately she was busy and couldn't leave.
- Before I forget, I'll stop by your house at eight, - I said, giving her a kiss on the forehead and I left the CCPD.
Since I was going to lunch alone, I texted my parents to ask where they were. Little did I know they were at Jitters, I asked them to reserve a place for me and went there. When I arrived, I joined them, sitting between my uncle Cisco and Ronnie.
Our lunch was fun as always and when we finished eating, we went to pay for what we ate and then went to STAR Labs. My parents had arranged with my former kindergarten teacher that they were going to take Ronnie to spend the afternoon with his future class, to see if he got used to the school environment, so we barely got to the lab entrance, they separated of us, leaving me to put up with the scientific disagreements of Cisco and Harry.
Forty minutes later, my parents entered the control room, taking over their duties quickly. I pulled up a chair and sat next to my mother, as I always do when I go to the lab.
At this point, you must be asking yourself why I said this would be a special day, but rest assured that the time has not yet come to tell you, after all we are still going in the early afternoon.
I spent the whole afternoon between the control room and the inventions room because, to tell you the truth, I was curious about the new invention that Cisco and Harry were working on, but unfortunately they didn't tell me what it was, almost not even me they let in the room.
The time for us to leave came quickly and since I still had a lot of time before I had to go pick up Amy, I decided to go with my parents and get the little beast out of kindergarten.
When he saw us, he came running to us and gave us a hug. My parents asked me to take care of him for a few minutes while they were going to talk to the educator to find out how it had been this afternoon when he was here.
When they arrived, there was no need to ask how it went because their smiles answered my questions. We got in my mother's car and headed for our house. It was time to leave the house, so I went to take a quick shower and get ready.
