Well, 2 pages. Not much to develop the whole back story, and then have a plot turn and a future direction for the story. So I focused on the latter 2. My goals for this exercise was to have a scene
that could reasonably stand on its own, didn't break any dramatic rules and hopefully made the reader want to guess what would happen next.

I liked the story, but I don't understand how they missed each other? If they are both upset about being jilted, they must have both turned up. Or am I missing something?

Ahhh! Yes I get you and agreed, 2 pages = no room for back story! I did want to know what happened next...and before!

Thanks for the read and comment Carly.
