Your heart races as you attempt to respond to the message. You type and erase at least ten times before you finally click send.

HARMONY: That sounds great. I should have some time this coming weekend

ASHER: We can meet after church if that would suit you best, or we could get some coffee on Saturday

He texts back so fast that you are in shock. You can barely contain your excitement as you consider your options. If you had much of a life, then maybe Sunday would have been better, but you are wide open.

HARMONY: I would be free on Saturday. I wouldn’t want to take up your busy time on Sunday

You regret sending it the moment you hit send and cringe as you wait for his response. Luckily, it doesn’t take too long and you aren’t completely left in your thoughts.

ASHER: Either way, I’m just looking to help accommodate you, but Saturday sounds great. Do you have a favorite coffee place you’d like to go?

HARMONY: The Dark Bean is my all-time favorite

ASHER: Never been, but I’m willing to give it a try. Meet there at 2 PM?

HARMONY: I’ll see you then

Your mind races and you feel a temptation to touch yourself all over again. You cannot believe that you’re going to be going to coffee with the crush you’ve been unable to get out of your mind in recent times. Nevertheless, you hold yourself back and choose not to do anything too crazy.
