A phone conversation between friends

Is he there yet?

No, there’s some random guy.

Well tell him to move on.

But what if Domenic doesn’t show? It’ll look bad.

If this guy sees you hiding out, that’s worse.

He can’t see me.

Is he cute?

I mean he’s dressed nice and his hair is spiky in a good way. Probably went to university.

Sounds like +1 material for Tanya’s wedding.

True and he may actually keep the date.

Go say Hi.

What? No.

Do it.

—- — —- —

“Um Hi. I’m expecting someone.”

“Yes, I know. It’s me.”

“Pardon?”

“Domenic suggested I meet you. So here I am.”

    Dear Clare,

    Perhaps he’ll end up being a +1 all the way around. Cute story.

    Shalom,

    Hah! I suspected he was waiting for her… but I didn’t expect that Domenic sent him. Good one, Clare.
