I was so excited when I got to my apartment last week.
All I could smell was fresh pizza, and I was hungry.
I had put in twelve hours working on the church’s HVAC system, and I was hungry. I opened the door, but there was no pizza and no girlfriend. Two minutes later, she walked in with takeout Chinese food, and I was disappointed. I asked where the pizza was, and she said it was the neighbor across the hallway. It wasn’t until that moment, that I realized how bad the ventilation system was in this apartment house. I sat down to a dinner of dry Chinese noodles and wishing it was pizza. My girlfriend asked if I had a bad day, and I told her it was just busy. She told me about her classes, and how she had passed her test. She then apologized for the Chinese. She told me she should have called and asked what I wanted for dinner, but I probably wouldn’t have answered my phone. The HVAC system in the church, had so many wiring problems that I was afraid I wouldn’t make it home tonight. She cuddled on the couch with me and asked if I wanted to go visit my parents. I enjoyed talking HVAC with my dad, and she knew it would cheer me up. I called to see what mom and dad where home, and dad told me to come on over. I had never met anyone who instinctively knew how to cheer me up. She found us a new apartment, and she called my mom and dad for me. I think I should propose to her and make sure I always have her around.
