Who would have thought... that Elaine would actually get me a date!
Yeah, it's ridiculous that I needed her help to go out with a girl, but that's exactly what happened.
All thanks to the lie I told Brianne—that Elaine and I are dating.
Everyone knows it: a guy in a happy relationship is a safe guy.
Any girl would feel comfortable hanging out with someone who seems harmless, that's why Brianne agreed to come.
And honestly, she looked kind of happy about it.
I mean, she didn't jump around like she just won the lottery or anything, but when Elaine walked up to her during lunch and said: «This afternoon, Ren and I are heading to Fifth Avenue for an aperitif and some shopping—he seriously needs to update his wardrobe. Want to come with us? You can help him pick something decent» I could tell Brianne was pleased.
She's the one dressing like the frontman of a rock band from forty years ago, and she's lecturing me on fashion?
