As I waited for her to arrive, the hours seemed to drag on for an eternity. All I wanted to do was get out of that apartment and forget about the baby growing inside of me. I would need to face reality at some point, but I just couldn’t face it now. Time was needed. A lot of time.

I fidgeted on the couch, pulling at a loose thread on my pants, wondering if Travis had gotten my note. Hopefully, he would read it and understand. Hopefully, we’d find a solution to all this. But was I wishing for a miracle? The man hadn’t acknowledged me for two months, even though he lived right across the hall. But surely the baby would make him change his mind, right?

Suddenly, a knock startled me from my reverie. Maybe it was Travis!

The sound sent me flying out of my seat. Quickly, I rushed toward the door, looking through the peephole.

But instead of Travis, Mandy was standing there in a killer red dress and matching pumps. Looking down at my own attire, I looked like a ninety-year old hag. What was my friend doing here?

Cautiously, I opened the door, anticipating her comments.

“Hey, doll.” She smiled. “You ready?”

“Yes,” I murmured, surprised by her lack of outburst. Usually, at this point, she would have dragged me into my bedroom to change.

“Why do you sound so unsure?” she asked, raising an eyebrow. “You were the one who begged me to go out last week, remember?”

I shrugged. “Nothing really.”

Mandy put her hands on her waist, cocking one hip sassily.

“You’re waiting for me to tell you to put on something sexy, aren’t you?”

“Kind of,” I smiled.

“Well you sounded pretty down on the phone. I didn’t want to push you. But if you insist….” A sly grin spread across her face right before she grabbed me by the wrist and towed me toward the bedroom. She let go then, flinging open the doors to my closet. “Hmm, let’s see here.” She glanced in my direction like an artist trying to paint a masterpiece. “By the time I’m done, you won’t be able to recognize yourself.”

“There’s no need to go crazy now,” I protested. “I mean, we’re just going out to dinner, right?”

“Of course, of course.” Her grin deepened. “Just a nice innocent dinner. But you still need to dress up.”

Uh oh.

“Why do I get the sense that you’re up to something?”

“That’s because I am.” She chuckled. “Don’t you know by now that I’m always up to something? Look.” She turned, facing me with one hand on her hip. “I can tell that something has got you down in the dumps, but you best believe that’s going to change tonight. You’re going to have so much fun you won’t know what hit you.”

I bit my lip, already regretting my decision to hang out with her because I had an uneasy feeling about this. My friend was going to drag me into something I didn’t want to do for sure. “Mandy, I just wanted a nice night out.
