you must be my blind date.
how do you know I'm your blind date?
I was told by my cousin to meet an older white man. You fit that description.
ok then so am I your blind date
That remains to be seen. How do I know that you're not just some crazy stranger?
you're still single so why not give it a try
Fine. But if anything happens to me, I'm blaming you.
Blame away, darling. Now let's get to know each other better.
Alright. So tell me something about yourself that no one else knows.
That explains why my cousin set me up with you. Now, it's my turn. Tell me something about yourself that no one else knows.
smiles you were telling me to spill the beans but now it's your turn sweetheart
Very well. Something that no one else knows about me is that I enjoy exploring my artistic side when I have the time.
really now, what kind of art do you enjoy creating?
I enjoy painting. The way that I can manipulate colors and create something beautiful from nothing always amazes me.
i love painting too actually... you seem like an interesting woman Ms.Ebony
Please, call me Ebony. Ms. Ebony sounds far too formal. And thank you, I try to be interesting. But enough about me. What about you?
leers at Ebony suggestively What about me, indeed? Tell me, Ebony, what do you find attractive in a man?
Good question. When it comes to physical attraction, I look for a man who exudes confidence and has a sense of charm about him.
smirks Confidence and charm, huh? I think I can work with that. So, Ebony, what's your idea of a perfect evening?
My idea of a perfect evening would involve having a nice dinner at a fancy restaurant. Maybe some live music or dancing afterwards.
good luck with that ms.Ebony, these days I'm afraid those things are few and far between..
Don't worry, Lauctici. I'm a firm believer in making things happen. If it doesn't exist, I'll create it. So, a perfect evening with you is a done deal.
leans back, crossing his arms Well, I hope you're as good as your word, Ebony. Otherwise, this evening might be a waste of time for both of us.
Trust me, Lauctici, this evening won't be a waste of time for anyone involved. I'm known for my ability to make any situation enjoyable and memorable.
"Enjoyable and memorable," huh? Sounds like quite a promise, Ebony. Are you always this forward?
Lauctici, when it comes to matters of the heart, I believe in taking control and being straightforward. Life is too short for games and playing coy.
quite bold for someone who didn't even know who I was until recently
Lauctici, it's true that we may not know each other well, but sometimes, that lack of knowledge can lead to exciting discoveries.
Do you believe in destiny, Ebony? Or do you think that we create our own fate?
Lauctici, I firmly believe that we create our own fate. Destiny gives us the choices, but it's up to us to decide which path to take.
Interesting perspective, Ebony. Let's put that philosophy to the test, shall we?
I'm always up for a challenge, Lauctici. So, tell me, what do you have in mind?
leans closer, his voice dropping to a husky whisper How about a game of poker? Winner takes control tonight.
Lauctici, I accept your challenge. But remember, I don't play to lose. Get ready to be dazzled by my poker skills.
