The Dance
I was at school to pick up LM on Tuesday and happened to see a sign for the Valentine's Day Dance. Later, I asked him if he was buying the tickets of if his date was (since she asked him).
"Tickets? I didn't know we needed tickets!"
"They are only $5, it's not a big deal. I'll give you the money for the tickets. I was surprised (but secretly delighted) to see that the dance was right after school from 3-5 on that Thursday."
"What?! I thought it was during school! I don't want to stay after school for a dance!"
Apparently, if he had only known some of the details, he might have given a very different answer when asked to go.
