Cindy looked at her beautiful red Valentines' dress and the silver sparkling shoes. She was so excited about her date with Jeff. She just knew that this was going to be a night that she would remember. She thought this would be the night that Jeff would pop the question and she wanted everything to be perfect. Cindy went to the beauty salon to have her hair washed and styled. While she was there she decided to get a pedicure and a manicure. When Cindy left the salon it was 5:00pm she could not believe how the time had slipped away. She stopped by a fast food restaurant to get a bite to eat. She arrived back home around 6:30pm.
