A hot date with the sage~
Rummaging through her top drawer, the brunette frantically searched for her best pair of pantyhose to slip on underneath her evening wear. It had been months since Nadine had the opportunity to wear such attire for something so formal, not since the Christmas party at Cheren's parents' house. Luckily, she managed to find a nice looking pair without any runs or holes. Slipping on the undergarments, she checked the way mirror on her armoire, making absolutely sure that everything looked perfect.
The doorbell, which had been acknowledged by Herbie's barking, had rung just as Nadine was about to apply her makeup. She checked her wristwatch to find that her blind date had arrived 10 minutes early; barely enough time to get completely ready.
Sticking her head out the door, she called out to the room opposite her. "Touya sweetie! I think my date has arrived a little early. Would you mind letting him in please?"
Nadine quickly closed the door to her own bedroom to finish up her evening date routine. It had been a couple of years since she last went on a date with someone. She had hoped that Touya didn't mind that she went out with other men every once in a while. Although those relationships never lasted long, she did enjoy herself, much like how she enjoyed her time with her late husband.
This was also the first date she had gone on where she didn't feel the need to hire a babysitter to watch Touya. After his long journey through the region, she felt it to be unnecessary. Touya was a big boy now, and deserved more privileges like staying up late and having his boyfriend stay over as long as he wanted. Not that Nadine minded, of course. She adored Cheren just as much as she loved her son.
Taking another glance at the mirror, she pushed up her breasts just a little, making sure they were nice and perky in her new black dress, the one she bought on clearance at the department store. Although this was supposed to be an extravagant dinner date, she hoped her date didn't mind that her clothes were not so fancy. It was the best she could do, being a single mother at her age.
