Things went a bit wrong on Dave’s side as the movie he and Ann entered proved to be speaking French.

They met this Sunday and already decided to give it a shot. His name is Dave and her name is Ann. They both work in a workers restaurant in Vermont Avenue, LA.

“When I saw Ann, I knew I had to be more courageous than what I usually am with girls. I promised to myself, that if Ann will say yes, I’ll buy me some present. You see this new phone? Ann chose it. Of course I made it look as if I purchased it because I needed a new phone.”

Ann who’s not a shy girl says everything right up front. She’s a openhearted young woman with big dreams like becoming a movie star one day. She says she loves local film industry and never thought about doing or watching anything else.

Things went a bit wrong on Dave’s side as the movie he and Ann entered proved to be speaking French.

“It was my mistake, of course. The film had a name which had a meaning in English, or so I found it to have. Anyway, five minutes into the movie, I see that she’s okay with it. She opened my new phone, probably to get some more information about the film or perhaps get a translation file. To be honest, I wanted to say something, like for example, Hey, Ann, did you notice they don’t speak English, but the words got stuck and the more we got into the film the more it felt like something I just can’t do.”

The date concluded with a shake of hands and so far Dave didn’t hear from Ann.

“The film was very dramatic. I guess she’ll have to think about it and reflect some. I still wait for her phone call.”
