I'm laying down in my room at my apartment in a nice town in South Florida. College is over and I'm glad that I can finally rest easy. I get a text from Eva, my stepmom. She says to me,
"Congratulations on finishing college. Any plans??"
I respond back, "No Eva, no plans. I figure I could just rest and probably watch a few films."
I look out the window and see the sunset. It's beautiful. Weather is hot but temperature is dropping a bit. I hear my phone vibrate once and I pick up. Eva's texting me once again.
"That sounds boring. You should go out and have fun. I know you're not a heavy drinker, but you have to loosen up."
I respond to Eva's text regarding on celebrating my finishing college and said,
"I'll celebrate. But I want to celebrate with you."
I put down the phone and wait. 30 minutes later, I get a text from Eva, and it says,
"I'm on my way. Find something nice to wear."
I smile and I put down the phone. I go to my closet and grab a light collared shirt and dark pants. I slip on the pants and tuck my shirt in. I put on my dark socks and wear my dark dress shoes. I go to the bathroom and shave. After putting on aftershave on my face, I put on some Cologne on my neck, and I wait in the living room. I get a text from Eva, saying that she's out front and I leave the apartment. As I left the building, I see this nice dark Mercedes parked. Eva's hair is tied and wearing shades. She unlocks the door and I enter. After closing the door, I fasten my seat belt. She's wearing a light blue dress with dark nylon stockings and stiletto heels. Eva starts driving and I relax. She congratulates me and tells me that we're going someplace special and fun.
20 minutes later, she pulls into a parking lot of a nice lounge. After Eva parks her car, we both get out. She puts her arm around my shoulder as we walk. Eva whispers,
"You look great."
I tell her she looks lovely, and we both enter the lounge. We sit in a booth and order a few drinks. We take our time on the drinks so we both don't get too drunk. After my 2nd drink, I feel pretty dizzy. Eva laughs at me.
"Having fun?"
I reply, "Dizzy and having fun."
She and I talked about my experiences at college and how hard the classes were. I told her that I was glad to be out of there. We both relax, waiting for the alcohol to wear off. Eva pays the bill and we both leave the lounge. We both see the sky and watch the stars for a few minutes. I notice that the beach is in the back of the lounge and we both take a walk.
Eva removes her heels as we step into the sand. I tell her,
"Thanks Eva. I needed this."
She smiles and gives me a kiss on the forehead.
"You're welcome."
We sit on the sand and watch the waves. I turn to her, looking into her eyes.
