Chapter 2: Horse and Carriage
They hailed a taxi and drove away to the yet unknown.
Amy: So, where are we going?
Ephram: You'll see. It's a surprise.
They get out of the taxi, pay the driver, and run across the street, hand in hand, to Central Park. They see a horse and buggy and get in. Ephram pays the driver and tells him to go one time around the park. The ride is slow and relaxing. They sat close together, Amy's head resting on Ephram's shoulder and his arm around her.
Amy: This was the surprise, a late afternoon drive through Central Park. I couldn't think of anything more romantic. (She says gazing into his clear blue-gray eyes.)
They leaned in and kissed. They sat in silence the rest of the ride just gazing at each other and the stunning scenery.The driver stops the horse and Ephram pays the driver, gets out of the carriage first, and goes around to where Amy was sitting.
Ephram (extends his hand out): My lady. (He says bowing somewhat awkwardly.)
Amy (places her hand in his): My lord. (She says curtsying gracefully.)
They walk out of the park and hail a cab to get to Ephram's grandparents home in upper Manhattan. As they arrive, a rainstorm greets them.
