“I’m ready. I can’t wait to see this movie with you, Jon” Alicia said enthusiastically.

“About that… I actually am going with my cousin” Jon said as he scratched his head. “But you said we’re going to the movies Friday, and here it is Friday.” Alicia stands across Jon, holding back tears as she knows this isn’t the first time her boyfriend has let her down. With a slight smirk, Jon says, “When I said ‘we’, I meant my cousin and me, not you and me”. With tears flowing down her face, Alicia says, “But you watched me get ready and prepare for this date”.
