My Dream pt 3

She was right of cause we should at the very least called to explain that we would not be attending. So I said "You're right that was disrespectful of us. I assure you it won't happen again."

Lacy reached into her purse pulled out an envelope handed it to me and said. "Here is a chance to redeem yourself. I having a party on Saturday seeing the following week would be Thanksgiving. I would consider it an insult if you and Sydney do not attend."

I took the envelope as I tried to come up with a reason why we couldn't attend. The only thing I could think of was the truth, "I'm sorry Mrs. Mitchell but you see Sydney and I aren't into that sort of thing."

Before I could finish Lacy cut in with. "What sort of thing are you referring to. The two of you aren't into having cocktails and socializing. For the first two hours there will be cocktails and socializing then dinner will be served. After that you two may leave and nothing will be said. If you wish to stay I can assure you you'll both have a wonderful time. As far as Sydney is concerned just buy her a sexy little outfit and tell her she is coming along. The way she looks at you I doubt she'll refuse you."

Lacy stood to leave so I stood too. When she held out her hand I took it in mine, and before I knew it Lacy leaned over the desk and kissed me on the lips. When she straight up she said. "Mm that was nice. Now please don't disappoint Sydney or me. She was all set to come to our parties before you blew into town and sweep her off her feet." Before I could say a word Lacy blew me a kiss and walked out of the office.

Once she was gone I sat down and stared at the invitation on the desktop. I knew there was no way I could not go this time, my only question was whether to tell Sydney or not. Seeing it was already Wednesday I decided not to tell her. I would do just what Lacy had said and buy her an outfit, have her get dressed and take her.
