The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Corinne was in the shower when her phone started ringing. However, it switched off not long after as it had run out of battery. After blow-drying her hair, Corinne connected her phone to the charger and went to sleep without turning it back on.

The next morning, Corinne left for the summer villa after taking her breakfast and giving Pamela a safe excuse as to where she was going. Pamela, ever the worrier, was reluctant to let Corinne go out alone, but she felt more reassured after knowing Tommy would be accompanying her.

‘Jeremy must’ve arranged security detail for Corinne,’ thought Pamela.

Since it was a weekend, it meant Chester would be coming in the morning to tutor Francine, so she woke up earlier than usual to tidy up her room. At first, being worried about Corinne going out alone, she wanted to accompany her. However, she did not really want to miss the chance to see Chester. In the end, she chose to stay at home to wait for Chester after learning Tommy would be accompanying Corinne.

‘Corinne’s gonna be fine with Tommy accompanying her,’ Francine told herself.
