In the Taxi After Dinner, You Choose a New Date to Speak Up

You laughed it off at the team dinner, but on the taxi ride home, you check your phone for another day to talk to your boss.

Scenes

As Soon as the Door Closes, You Check the Dates — You sat beside your boss throughout the team dinner, but couldn't say what you'd planned. As soon as you get in the taxi, you start checking next week's lucky days again.
You Had a Chance Today, Too — There was even a moment after the toast when it was just the two of you. But when your boss mentioned tomorrow's schedule, you set down your water instead of saying what you'd prepared.
Choosing a Date Isn't Just About the Date — Choosing a date isn't about picking one lucky day. You can only make it work by also considering the other person's schedule, the setting, and whether you're ready.
Write Down Lucky Days and Days That Work — Tonight, why not list “lucky days” and “days when we can talk alone for a moment” separately? Even if they don't overlap, you'll see what kept making you put it off.
What Will You Choose First Next Time? — The hand searching for another date still holds the words you couldn't say today. If you open the calendar again after the next team dinner, which would you look for first: a lucky day, or a moment alone together?
