I took a scholarship back at Central Baptist College, enrolled in the brand new counseling program, and went back mid-year. I was casted as "Zebulon's Wife" in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat. I loved being back at CBC. There was a new crowd in the music department since I'd left, and I loved getting to know them. Among them, was Manly. He had curly red hair, bad taste in clothes, and the thickest sideburns you have EVER seen. He was very appropriately casted as "Hairy Ishmaelite #2." Ha!
While all of this was going on, we had a handful of conversations about our common issues and interests, but I wasn't interested in him at all. Aside from a few random comments(like, "Hey, do you wear contacts? I can tell.") he didn't seem interested in me either.
One day, on the way to my sight singing class I could tell someone was walking behind me. I turned around and it was Manly. He looked a little concerned. I said, "Hey, do you need something?" Nervously he asked, "I was wondering...Do you like ice cream?" A little confused I said, "Uh, yeah." Then he said, "Well, I was wondering if you might want to get ice cream sometime?" Having NO idea he was trying to ask me out on a date I said, "Sure." and never thought any more about it...
