Oh! Darling

One day later the phone rang and I just knew it was Rohn wanting to talk to me about planning the day and time for our date. I was very nervous (once again!) and was trying to hide when my mom found me and handed me the phone.

Rohn suggested Bennigan’s for lunch on June first, the day after my last year at St. Anthony ended. Now I just had to get through the actual date without a nervous breakdown. Easy…right?

WRONG !!!

The day before the date, Rohn called and we talked for at least thirty minutes. The phone call involved many awkward silences and much nervousness on both of our parts but we both made it through.

I had already picked out an outfit and gotten a food suggestion from Hannah because there was no way I would be able to actually read the menu.

When the day came, I locked myself in the bathroom before finally convincing myself that it wasn’t fair to stand him up. What was I thinking? I grabbed a snack to tide me over and headed Bennigan’s-ward.
