My cell phone signaled the time of 12:35 pm, so I decided to just leave right then and there. Being early for events can really show your responsibility and good timing to others, so I was bound to do just that.

After almost twenty minutes of excruciating traffic and red lights, I had finally arrived at our gathering place. A group of about five or six people accompanied Stephanie who was well into a conversation with two other friends. I calmly locked my car and walked up to the collection of acquaintances.

Stephanie was the first to greet me to all her friends there. I casually introduced myself and to my blatant shock out of nowhere Frank appeared among the group. I had no idea what he was doing there but I was going to find out.
