A Day Away

Craig asked me if I would be more comfortable canvassing today. So Becca and I went out with a few other college students. No one said anything about Benjamin or anything else. Instead, we focused solely on the primary.
It’s been a while since we went out and I didn’t say much today. I let others do the talking. Becca was a little rusty at first, but she regained her footing.
I feel so out of place. Like I’ve done something terribly wrong.
Before I left, Benjamin told me that his Mother would like to meet me. I thought it might be a little early to go see his Mother, but I didn’t want to say no. That would be rude.
So I said yes. Saturday night, Benjamin and I will eat dinner with his family. I hope they like me.
