Bab 506: Sudden date

Luther received Melanie's message in the afternoon, and he spent the whole time planning what to do with her.

They could chat, play cards... He could bring her flowers.

Oh, he had to find a new perfume close to the one he used before. That specific one wasn't sold anymore. Even though he couldn't conquer Melanie with his old perfume. Maybe changing was better. But he would feel like being in another man's skin. Was it worth it to get Melanie's affection? Likely, yes.

Also, the simple fact that she had invited him was proof enough: he stood a chance!

When evening finally came, he was ready for a date. Wearing his best - new - clothes, his hair cut by a hairdresser, and his hands holding flowers for her, he got off the taxi in front of a residence. He checked once again whether his tie was in order - he remembered how she would get mad every time Robert's tie was crooked - and threw a glance at his shoes, clean and shining.
