It felt good to be reminded of who Olivia was when we first met and all the qualities I admired about her. The blind date with Cree awoke those memories in my head. Despite how badly the day ended, I still recall fondly the earlier bits before Cree got all crazy and pulled a gun on me.
Despite the fact that she admitted to playing out a script, I like to tell myself that her laughter and smiles that day were all real. We did have a connection. I felt the sparks and if she's being honest, she'll admit it too.
Elyon has been trying to get me back out in the dating scene since that fiasco but I keep turning him down.
"Come on, you can't just back out because the last date was a shit show. You have to go on several dates to find the one." Elyon pressed every day at work.
"I don't have time for that."
