The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Corinne was in the shower when her phone started ringing. However, it switched off not long after as it had run out of battery. After blow-drying her hair, Corinne connected her phone to the charger and went to sleep without turning it back on.

The next morning, Corinne left for the summer villa after taking her breakfast and giving Pamela a safe excuse as to where she was going. Pamela, ever the worrier, was reluctant to let Corinne go out alone, but she felt more reassured after knowing Tommy would be accompanying her.
