I was very excited to drive Lucina home after dinner. I thought the date went really well.

“Allen, you look different from the picture Amy sent me,” she said, smiling. “You grew your hair out but lost the beard? It was cute!”

My name wasn’t Allen. My guess was that he flaked on Lucina but I looked enough like him apparently.

“I’m not cute now?”

She chuckled. “No, I kid. I love the long hair. You’re very handsome I had a great time. Perhaps we can do it again?”

I thought about it and smiled.

“Sure.”

Maybe I wouldn’t kill this one.
