SUBJECT: ANOTHER REALdate.
Hayley,
I want to take you back to Alaska this weekend so we can finish the tour, and then I want to take you somewhere else special next weekend. You’ll need a black dress for both dates.

Can I have a hint of where you’ll be taking me for the second date? A hint of what we’ll be doing?

I BLUSHED AS I READCorey’s latest email and placed my phone in my purse. I made sure my car was locked, and then I walked across the street to the bridal store where Claire was hosting a last-minute fitting.
When I walked through the white doors, I found myself face to face with her identical twin daughters, Ashley and Caroline. Drop dead gorgeous redheads, they were in their mid-teens, and they were the spitting images of Claire. They were also, unfortunately, incapable of having conversations with people outside of themselves.
“Hey, Ashley and Caroline.” I looked back and forth between them since I still couldn’t tell them apart. “Can you tell me where to find Claire?”
They blinked in unison. Then they looked at each other as if they hadn’t heard a single word I said.
Please don’t do this to me today. Just answer me...
“I like the way Hayley dresses,” Ashley (I think) said. “It’s really cute.”
“Yeah, it’s really classy, but slightly modern at the same time. Do you think she has a stylist?” Caroline (I guess) raised her eyebrow.
“I think she puts her own clothes together. She did own a cute coffee shop, so she has to have some artistic sense.”
“You saw the coffee shop?”
“No, I just saw the pictures when Jonathan talked about it. It was pretty, pretty chic.”
“So, you don’t know where your mom is?” I cleared my throat. “Like, you can’t give me any direction?”
“You know who also dresses nice?” Caroline asked. “Corey. They should shop together.”
“They should be together. They would be a cute, stylish couple. What do you think his style is?”
