Straight towards Tesco. He then stood and waited, Frankie decided to 
hide around a corner. Then a girl walked out o the shop. They said 
something to each other before walking away from Tesco. Frankie heard 
part of the conversation, which put an idea into her head. 

The next night, Frankie got herself ready before getting the bus to head
into town, and once in town, she saw this girl waiting outside the 
cinema. 

‘Are you waiting for Nathan?' she asked the girl. 

‘Yeah, why, what's it got to do with you?' 

‘I'm his sister, Frankie. He's given me this note to give you. He said
he is so sorry but he had to go to work tonight because someone called 
in sick.' 

‘That's strange. Why couldn't he just text me? He has got my number.' 

‘Oh, yeah, he's sorry about that but he accidentally deleted it.' 

‘Are you sure you are his sister? I'm positive he told me that he is an
only child.' 

‘He just pretends. I'm the pretty one in the family and I think he gets
a bit jealous.' 

The girl just gave Frankie a strange look before glancing at the note.
She then made her way towards the bus stop, leaving Frankie to wonder 
how she had got away with what she had just done. She was glad it 
wasn't Nathan who turned up first. 

A few minutes went by then Nathan appeared. He looked shocked when he
saw Frankie standing by the entrance. 

‘What are you doing here?' he asked her. 

‘Waiting for my date, but it's beginning to look like I've been stood
up. I might as well go home.' 

‘Hang on, did you see a girl standing here?' 

‘Tall with blonde hair?' 

‘Yeah, that's her.' 

‘Where did she go?' 

‘I dunno exactly. I saw her look at her watch, then head over there, then
get on a bus.' 

‘Oh.' he replied. ‘I dunno about you but I'm going in to watch the film.
Fancy coming in with me?' 

What a strange question to ask. Of course, she wanted to go and watch
the film with him. And She had a huge smile on her face as she followed 
him inside.
