October 4th:

I’m going on my first date with Harold tonight!! I can’t believe he asked me out, I’m so excited. He hasn’t told me where he’s taking me yet, but I don’t care. Wherever we go will be perfect if he’s there.

October 5th:

That was a mess. I think she hates me. I know she hates me. There’s no way I’m getting a second date. I was so nervous and I said all the wrong things. She was so quiet the whole time, I bet she was just waiting to get away from me.

Harold

October 5th:

That was the best night of my life. He’s so sweet and interesting and funny. He was going on and on about stuff he loved, I could listen to him forever. I was a little nervous talking to him, but I just liked the sound of the voice. I hope he asks me on another date!

Betty

October 7th:

I knew it. still haven’t heard from her. She probably hates me now. If she liked me, she’d let me know. Right?

Harold

October 8th:

He still hasn’t asked me on a second date. Maybe he’s just nervous. I could ask him but he might just be busy.

October 19th:

I saw her in class today. She smiled at me. It made some of the pain go away but I still can’t help but feel like I screwed things up.

Harold

October 19th:

I saw him in class today. He’s so sweet, he held the door open for me and smiled at me. It reassured me that he’s going to ask me out again!! I can’t wait.

Betty

October 22nd:

I don’t know what to do. I want to reach out to her, but I don’t want to pester her if she wants nothing to do with me. Maybe I should anyway, I don’t know. I probably won’t.

Harold

October 23rd:

HE MESSAGED. He asked me to go costume shopping with him for Halloween. I hope we get matching costumes, that’d be cute. I told him I’d been thinking about him. He seemed surprised? I’ll make sure to keep reminding him.

Betty

October 30th:

I was so stupid. I almost lost my chance with her. She’s so great. I’m gonna make sure to check in with her and hold her close from now on.

P.s. we’re going trick or treating together as Fred and Daphne from scooby doo with a couple other friends. I can’t wait.

Harold
