Writing exercise

Last Sunday I had a date with my boyfriend and his dog which named KAKA. He picked me up by his car at my home around 11:30am. And then we went to have lunch at a small restaurant named Oriental House which we have already reserved at ANFU Road. We ordered many types of cooking and it was all delicious. After lunch, my boyfriend wanted to see a movie but I had watched a movie last Friday so I refused him. Finally, we decided to walk the dog in the park nearby because the weather was great and our dog liked to run. The air was very fresh so there are many people took their dogs in here. KAKA was also very happy and smelt everywhere. When KAKA met another dog which is bigger than he, he shouted very loudly if we picked him up. When we put him down, he would be silence at once and would so afraid to approach.
I had a sweet time with my boyfriend and KAKA at the park for 2 hours. And then He sent me home by his car. I was unwilling to say goodbye to them. It was a great memory of me. I hope I can have another date with him again in near future. What a great day!
