Just in Time

We finish a quiet dinner with us just looking at each other, we get in to car.

“Be ready for a big surprise!” He grins wide like a kid in a candy shop. I just shake my head and smile a bit. One kind of idea can a guy like him come up with? A movie that I haven’t been to before? Hmm…

We drive for a while and I fumble with my shirt in anticipation.

“I hope we make it in time.” Huh?

Finally the car turns off
.
“Common, we got some walking to do.”

I get out and before I can even think he takes my hand and we start walking through a field. After a while we reach the top of a hill. On the other side of the hill I see dandelions that seem to go one forever. The sun is just starting to hit the horizon.

“Just in time,” He smiles at me and we both sit down.

Wow, he does come up with good ideas.
