Courage Astaire

He'd meet the family soon. That's what I'd been telling myself for the past few weeks. Every time we're in the same space, I just catch myself believing that this is it, that I've stumbled across somebody who knows exactly what I'm thinking. But, I thought I'd put it to the test.

Last week I'd given him a list of categories, and today we're supposed to show each other what we've chosen for each one. The list was:

1. Favourite food
2. Favourite colour
3. Favourite drink
4. Something fun

If we really are soulmates, this should be easy, right?

I sat in my house. The Astaire family estate. Large, rich, opulent. Yet, quiet. Nobody was home. My favourite time, really. It meant Laurence could come round. I sat across the table in the kitchen. It's wooden, hardy, and beside it within a bag I have my items. I wait for him to come in. He has a key, of course.
