B'day Surprise!
Her birthday is the 20th of November. He would ask her what she wanted for her birthday. He said he'd get her just about anything she wanted. Each time he asked she would say that all she wanted for her birthday was for him to be there. And each time she asked he told her it wouldn't work out - that he couldn't get the time off. He was already getting the month of December off - they wouldn't let him have any more time.
He was lying. He already had a three day weekend set up for the weekend of the 20th. He called and asked for our help. He wanted someone to meet him at the airport with his car at 6AM Friday morning so that he could leave from there and go directly to Fargo/Moorhead. His Aunt and I volunteered to be at the airport at 6AM.
Since he had never been to the apartment, and we had been, I also drew him a detailed map of the complex where she lives so that he would know exactly where he could find her.
He arrived in Fargo at about 10 AM, pulled into the parking lot of the apartment and called her cell phone. He woke her up (no classes Friday) and chatted a little - they do that every day. Then he said, "Can you come down and unlock the door, I'm getting a little cold." She told him to stop teasing because it made her feel bad. He said, "I'm not."
She said that she was never so happy as when she looked out the window and saw him in the parking lot standing next to his car. To her no one could have looked better. Black leather jacket, cool red Mustang convertible and a smile as wide as the sky on his face. Her birthday wish had come true. He had crossed half a continent to celebrate her birthday with her.
Is that cool or what?....
