Sergio keeps looking at Lola because she’s just so..beautiful. The awkwardness between them is evident. Neither one of them knows how to break the ice.
Sergio: So...you’re into art work?
Lola: Oh yes, besides gardening..it’s my next favorite thing. I’m a collector of art and all sorts of things.
Sergio: What a coincidence, Dennis loves art also...it’s not something I’ve ever dabbled into, but I could be taught a thing or two.
Lola smiles, as Sergio pulls out a chair for her to sit down. The others have gone to tour the museum, but Lola’s Mom, Norma, hung around for support.
Norma: Sergio, you know both of you have so much in common. Lola loves to plant in the garden like you do.
Sergio: Yes, she was telling me that she loves to garden.
Lola: I’m more into botany, though. I love studying the growth and evolution of different plants.
Sergio: *chuckles* I’ve finally met a lady who doesn’t mind getting in the dirt. This could be fun.
Lola: Mmm.. yes it could.
Lola’s expression turns just as flirty as Sergio’s does when he said that.
Sergio continues: I was gonna try to go out tomorrow and look for more seeds. I really need some variety at the farm. I’ve only got a few types of veggies and fruits.
.....Would you like to go with me?
Lola: I was just thinking about going out on a hike the other day! But, Oliver keeps me so busy..cooking dinner, helping with homework. That I totally put it on the back burner. I need to go out as well. I wanna start a small garden at my new house. Maybe you could help me set it up..?
Sergio looks at Norma smiling, then back at Lola:..That sounds like a yes to me!
Lola: It beats going out in the hot sun alone! Plus, you could show me where all the good spots are.
Norma smiles happily as they exchange numbers.
Meanwhile, upstairs in another room, Sierra and Dennis catch up...
Dennis: So whaddya think, did Grandpa do a good job?
Sierra: You’re the best! I haven’t seen my Daddy smile like that in a long time. I think he likes her!
Dennis: We’ll have to wait and see! Our work here is done, princess...the Love Project is in effect! *they high five* It’s all up to your Daddy and Miss Lola now.
Let’s go catch up to your Dad before he comes looking for us.
