Dates. Dates can be very fragile. They have the capability of getting ruined in seconds or turning out to be one of the best moments of your life.Traditionally, people normally have dates at a restaurant or somewhere that makes food. But times have changed.You can have dates anywhere now, which is amazing! You can have a date in your house with someone special or even yourself.My own date is extraordinary. Very different.I’m in Sterling’s car heading out of the city yet again. The road seems familiar obviously. This route leads to that dirt path that he took me on that last time.I check my phone and the battery is full. I breathe out slowly.

There are certain places that you go and they instantly become a part of you.This coffee shop is one of those places for me.It’s a beautiful place that has so many memories. It has so much character, so much love.I know almost all the staff here. Except the new ones that they recently hired.But that ain’t a problem because I will get to know them too.“Rose!” I hear the cashier’s voice.It’s a white lady with blonde hair.She’s Linda, and she works on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.I like her, she’s real nice.She has her hair in a ponytail and she&
