"Yes, it is the guy from my birthday" Katie says excited to finally share it with her friend. "But we aren't really dating; I don't really know what we are. So here is what actually happened…" so Katie relays the story of how she met James but she doesn't mention his identity she just refers to him as James.
"And now we occasionally kiss goodbye but I don't know what to think. I don't want to get my hopes up". "Come on Katie, the guy obviously likes you. Even after you left your date to meet another guy he was still there for you" Cindy say then continues "I think you are just used to having to wait on someone like Kyle who doesn't appreciate you."
"Ok, maybe you are right. He just invited me to meet his friends; do you think I should go?" Katie says not sure of what to do.
"Haaaa" Cindy screams, "You are meeting his friend that's a big deal. Like a really big deal. He wants to show you off", Cindy says as she jumps up. "Of course you have to go and I'll dress you I just completed a dress that's perfect for you. I'll go get it" Cindy says as she leaves the office excited.
With more confidence than before, she replies yes to James message and continues to clear her desk so she can leave early to prepare.
---- Nathan Su beach house
James and Katie arrive a bit late because they don't live close. James steps out in a light blue shirt and black office pants, and walks to the other side of the car to help Katie down. Katie is wearing her knee length off shoulder dress, with a black background, with red fabric designed as rose petals on the body, which brings out a delicate and fair skin.
Hand in hand they walk in to house where a small group of James' friends are drinking and singing karaoke. When they walk in the first to notice them is Catherine who is wearing a red short dress and knee length black suede hilled boots and a leather jacket, giving off a very different aura than she normally does. And also, Nathan who is dressing very casually in shorts, and a loose shirt. They were both busy talking on the chair near-by
"Finally, young master Ning graces us with his presence, and looks like he brought a date" Nathan says loud enough for everyone in the room to hear, especially Ruby who showed up without an invite.
