My dear Alice, I do thank you for the lovely evening. It has been quite some time since I had the company of a lady. While I didn't mind overly, perhaps I should get to pick the activity next time.
I do hope you are doing well, Claire. I should be able to make time to come see you this weekend. Oh, I won't ruin things by saying
when. I know how much you like surprises.
I believe I will fit in quite nicely here.
