8nowing I'm not a fan of parties and large crowds, Nick has decided to take and treat me to something 'special and divine.'

Those were his words.

Be arranged for a babysitter for Octavia as Mina is out of town again.

My friend is getting busier by the day. It comes with the promotion, and I couldn’t be prouder.

I'm curious and eager to see what he will pull oU this time.

Hinally giving up on getting him to tell me where we are headed, I crank up the radio's volume. Es huge fans of Lolly :arton, we sing along, enGoying the warm summer breeDe as we drive to our destination.

Nick stops the car after an extra thirty minutes of driving through town. 1efore we leave the car, he tells me to put on a blindfold.

I'm not a huge fan of surprises. They make me anxious.

"Lo I have to put this on?" I ask, trying so hard to make a sad puppy face.

Nick chuckles. "Come on, big baby, it's Gust for a few seconds,K he says as he assists me in tying up the blindfold.

"Okay, if you say so," I say defeatedly, turning my back to allow him access to secure the knots.

Be exits the car, opens the door for me, and leads me down a path.

It's pitch black in this blindfold.

I can hear birds humming and smell the beautiful scent of summer Fowers blooming. I also hear the sound of a door opening, and I'm pretty sure we walk right through.

In a few more seconds, Nick takes oU the blindfold. It takes a brief minute for my eyes to adGust to the dim lighting. I blink rapidly to hasten the process before my eyes set sight of a set dinner table in the middle of the room. It is set for two, and rose petals are decorated around this pretty peach-colored room. Et the far end of the room, I see a chef smiling at me and a small string zuartet ready to play. Nick signals to them, and they bring to life the soothing melody of 'Xndless Aove’ by Liana 4oss - one of my favorite divas of all time.

I immediately turn to Nick. I am surprised as to how he managed to pull this oU.

"Nick! This is beautiful!" I hug him.

"You love it?" he asks.

"Of course I do. It is perfect," I szueak excitedly.

"3ood!" Nick says, leading me to the table and pulling out my chair.

My perfect gentleman.

Be claps, and the kitchen staU comes in to serve our food.

It feels like a qve-star restaurant, the only diUerence being we are the ones here, which is perfect.

We are entitled to a qve-course meal. This is the qrst time I've experienced something this extravagant. 3rowing up with my parents, we never went anywhere fancy for food. Our food was usually made at home by my mother or father.

So, this is a new experience for me.

End I experienced everything Bors d'oeuvres, appetiDers, salad, our main course meal, and dessert.

1oy! When I tell you this food is on point, I mean it. The chef understood the assignment and did it Gustice. I savor every taste from my plate and enGoy how they settle into my pallet.

Nick and I got lost in conversations as we ate our dinner. Aaughing and Gust being ourselves. Efter our meal, the zuartet and the chef pack up, and we are alone in the room.

"Thank you so much for this, Nick," I say, reaching for his hand across the table.
