So, we made it very official. I took 1/2 day off of work & picked him up at school promptly at 12:20 pm, just as I'd promised.
My date looked very handsome. His hair was 'piked. And he had on a polo.
He took me to my favorite [only] Mexican restaurant in town. We shared conversation...about Lucy.... and Sammy at school, and how close his new classroom will be to mine.
We saw a sewage truck go by & Gabe noted the size of the truck. Then insisted on knowing the truck's purpose.
All this over chips & salsa.
He made me tell the story again, about why we had his birth certificate with us & grinned while I told him that he'd need that when he goes to get his marriage license with his wife.
He proudly held my hand into my school building & greeted everyone as I directed him to. He aced the test with flying
& I had to tell him
that school
doesn't start
for another
five
months.
