Bad Date ...
Raquel rang her friend Sarah...
“Hi Sarah, listen I only have a minute. I’m about to get picked up for a blind date, can you call me in a half hour just in case it’s going bad?"
"Yes, can do.”
Raquel gave herself a quick spray of perfume, checked herself out one more time in the mirror, and headed outside to wait for the guy.
Sure enough, after twenty minutes Raquel was discreetly checking her watch.
Another ten more long minutes passed, then her phone finally buzzed.
Raquel listened a few seconds, grimly pursed her lips, and turned to her date, “I feel terrible, but my Mother is terribly sick, and I must go home right now.”
“No problem!” Said her date with a big grin, “In five more minutes, my dog was going to get hit by a car!”
