They Had Already Left When I Arrived
I am Nina. Last Friday I planned to meet my friends at Riverside Café at six. I left work late because a client had called with urgent questions before I could pack my bag.
When I reached the café at six twenty, the table near the window was empty. The waiter told me my friends had already left ten minutes earlier. They had waited outside until the rain had stopped, but then they had decided to move to the cinema lobby.
I felt disappointed because I had not checked my phone during the commute. My friend Leo had sent three messages while I had been on the bus. He had written that they had finished their coffee and had walked toward the station.
At the counter I ordered tea and asked the waiter if anyone had left a scarf on the chair.
