The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Francine was a little puzzled when she saw so many guests at the house. She looked at Corinne who was feeding Joey, then at Annie who sat next to Corinne. Finally, her gaze shifted to Aaron sitting beside Annie. She frowned without hiding her displeasure. “Why are you still in touch with this jerk, Annie? You’re supposed to stay away from him!”
