Speaking of stor I can s toward the side of the house, letting the paint fuht I s if that will affect any of Leo’s plans I hope it all works out for him

I get the feeling that today is the day Today, he’ll propose He hasn’t got long tohappen, after all, and I know he doesn’t want to lose the inheritance if he can help it, there are so many jobs on the line not just his fortune But I know he also insists onspecial forseeuess he just wants me to say yes in a special way I think it’s really sweet My sexy, co his day on delicate matters, and it feels nice It shows le side of him I’ve seen so far

I spend the afternoon working up the courage to wear the dress, drinkingthe note that caarden at nightfall, according to the note, signed by Leo I feel nervous, but excited, knowing so to happen when I step outside

I eventually put on the dress and look in theback at ht now, I feel like one myself With sht out of a fashion catalog He’s ain hoell he knows ht all about irl scared of her future, the girl who believed she would never get what she wanted

This is me now

And nightfall is nearly here I put on the black heels that caive ood that I can’t stop sarden,This is it Thefor
