<p>Maria was sitting on her couch wearing pink fleece Pajama pants, and a gray hoodie braiding her white mane when the doorbell rang, her heart raced as she jumped up from the couch and looked around the living room to make sure everything was perfect. Not a speck of dust anywhere, her bleached wood furniture was polished with a lemon scented oil giving the air a soothing freshness that mixed well with the calming lavender she had in a vase sitting on the table. She looked at her tray of homemade cookies, oatmeal raisin, she picked one up and carried it with her as she went to the front door after hearing the doorbell ring for a second time. Her hooves clopped on the tiled floor of her large townhouse, as she rushed to the front door, but just as she was about to grab the door handle, she stopped herself, &quot;Remember, set the ground rules, and establish boundaries, and then give them a tour.&quot; She reminder herself, before taking a deep breath to calm her nerves and give her heart a second to settle before opening the door with a bright gleaming smile, &quot;You're finally here! I hope everything is okay, I started to get worried when you texted me and said you were going to be late.&quot;</p>
