She paned all her way wandering if she would find a good person in her life, and she blamed herself because this new guy who she met on internet might be worse than her last boyfriend. But she kept walking into the restaurant where they agreed to meet each other.

When she arrived, finding he wasn’t there. She thought “Oh, gosh, I probably made one more mistake in my life. What am I doing here? I must be crazy! ...” She looked around the restaurant, there were several kinds of flowers, lilac, wisteria, and rose, which her ex-boyfriend never sent to her. The flowers were colorful, fragrant and pretty; they were so beautiful the same to those she saw on the first date with her last boyfriend at Center Park. But, after several sweet years with her ex-boyfriend, he suddenly became a total different person.
