Drive?
Off to the cinema
You get into the car and as you start the engine, you can't help the warm feeling in your stomach. You steal a glance at Tyrone, admiring his profile. He really is a handsome young man.
“So,” “Have you seen any good movies lately?”
“No, not really,” “Grandma and I don't get out to the cinema much.”
“Well, you'll enjoy this one,” “The reviews have been great.”
He smiled. “I'm looking forward to it,” he said sincerely.
“So, Tyrone,” “Tell me a bit about yourself. What do you like to do for fun?”
“Um, well,” he started. “I like playing basketball. And I enjoy hanging out with my friends.”
You nod, intrigued. “That's great,” “Do you play on a team?”
He nodded. “Yeah,” he said. “We play in a local league. It's a lot of fun.”
“That's fantastic,” “I bet you're very good.”
He grinned, looking a little embarrassed. “I'm okay,” he said modestly.
“Well, you must be good if you're playing in a team,”
He looks over, clearly appreciating your praise. “Thanks,” he mumbled.
As you approach a junction, you slow down and indicated to turn. As you change gear, your hand accidentally brushes against his leg. You feel a jolt of electricity at the touch and quickly pull your hand away.
“Sorry,” feeling flustered.
He looks at you in surprise. “It's okay,” he said quickly.
Do you glance back at him?

Life of the Divorcee
It begins
After many years of marriage, Brenda Barker never imagined she’d be starting over. But when her husband ditches her after she's caught cheating at the local health spa Brenda is left with a modest house, an overgrown garden, and a long-overdue reckoning with who she really is. What begins as a shaky stumble into singlehood—burnt dinners, awkward solo brunches, and tearful nights with wine and reruns—soon becomes a bold exploration of self. With the unexpected help of her two teenage sons, and new neighbours, Brenda rediscovers not just joy, but a version of herself she hadn’t seen in decades.
