Wait, wait, wait. Don't give up a dream quite this quickly.
Okay, so we have the kids' classes and a gap before yours.
Let's suss this out.
One - is there anyone taking the kids' classes who could be relied upon to take the kids home?
Two - could you get someone to take the kids to their classes so you could have a few moments with Rob? That might make things smoother.
Three - Is there something else Fiona and Delia could do during your class? Homework? Swimming?
I know you don't feel comfortable having them hang out until your class is over, but think about this for a few moments with a slightly greedy heart. Would that be so bad? Could Rob come over to the dojo and take them? Or, could he show up and after class, you all could go to some cheapish place close by for a snack or something like coffee/cocoa?
There's always a way, Peg. Step back for a moment and think about this. Tomorrow may very well be better, because tonight's already late for you.
Please don't give up something you want -- and we all know you really want this -- until you've had a chance to coolly examine all the possibilities.
