Little did you know, a fateful encounter would lead to a night that would change your life forever. You’d been trying to reach out to Richard for weeks, but your schedules never seemed to align. Until now. Finally, you got a response from Richard. He found a time that he’d be available and you were free too. This was your chance to tell him what had happened and the changes that occurred.

The hours seemed to stretch on interminably, as you tidied the apartment. You had to make sure that your place didn’t look like a mess when the man you barely spent time with came over. When you opened the door, you were greeted with a smile. Richard was leaning against the doorframe, looking casual in a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. He looked like he'd just come from a workout, his hair still damp from a shower.

“Hey,” he said, stepping inside and giving you a quick kiss on the cheek. He was so...Richard. Always trying to be the perfect boyfriend, even when you weren't even really dating. “I hope you don't mind, but I brought lunch with me. I figured we could have a little picnic in the living room.”
