“I hope it’s ok of ht It see this quarantine so seriously that a break could be beneficial for us both What I mean to say is, it wouldn’t be a terrible idea if the two of us were to meet up in person to quell the loneliness, so to speak, would it?”

I’m in shock He pretty much just asked me out on a date I feel a little dizzy for a second I cal on my reply

“No, I don’t think that would be a bad idea at all But, where would we go?”

Despite still not feeling well, I’m a bundle of nerves and excitement

“I think I’ll leave that to you Where do you usually like to go?” he asks

I hurry to text back my answer

“Well, I like siether and talk How about grabbing a cup of coffee?” I ask

He texts back quickly

“That sounds divine, and I love coffee, but everything is closed down”

I stare at his e and my heart sinks in disappointment I think for a few minutes before I text him “How about a walk in the park?”

I cringe a little; I hope that doesn’t sound too boring or cliché

He texts back with a s face

“That sounds perfect Shall we set a date and time?”

I sht now I can’t believe I have a date with Mr Winston! I had been secretly hoping that this would happen, but I didn’t think that it would

“Whatever works for you”

I finish brushing et back to the couch, there is another e from him:

“Great! I’ll let you know later Need to get soreat afternoon”

I sood afternoon before putting my phone away; I should do rade the next few assignments that come in There are no more texts from him

In between grading papers, I start to fixit out on iveTV Despite being quarantined, I feel like I’ve had a productive day
