“Hi Sam. Would you like to go on a quest with me?” I rehearsed different versions of this in my head.
“Would you like to take a fun trip?”
“That’s too dumb.” I thought to myself.
“Would you like to meet Abe?”
“Why would she want to meet Abe? The only thing I really know about him is that he’s tall and. Come to think of it, that’s all I really know about him.”
My mind and I were in a back and forth.
Finally, I just scribbled the following words on my palm:
“Hi Sam. Will you come with me on a quest? It will be really fun. I would really be happy if you came along.”
I was nervous.
I don’t know why. Maybe I was worried she would say no.
With fists clenched I walked up to her front door. I took a deep breath and rang her door bell.
