I thought long and hard about what to bring for dinner next door. I finally decided on baking some chocolate chip cookies. I don’t even know why I’m stressing about it. I guess I wanted to make a good impression. Whom am I looking to impress, though? Is it the family, or Lily’s presumed son?
All my life, I’ve never had to make an effort to get a guy to like me. More often than not, they like me even before I start liking them. They are usually the ones making an effort. I can’t believe I’m doing it now when I’m already 25 years old. I am acting like a love-crazed teenager.
I decided it’s just a phase and I’m just entertaining myself because I’m bored with living alone. I also don’t have work to distract me yet, so I’m just finding an outlet. I convinced myself that that’s all it was.
