I will meet my aunt today

Today I have planned to visit my aunt’s place. My aunt has been inviting me for more than a month and I did not have time to meet her. But today I do not have field work, so it will be possible to meet my aunt and spend time with her. If my aunt wants to watch a movie I will take her out and watch a film with her. I love my aunt a lot. As I have planned I will start in few minutes to my aunt’s place.
