I received a text from my boyfriend, teasingly asking me out to a cafe. But seconds later, he messaged saying, “Oops, sorry, that wasn’t meant for you — it was for my colleague.” Immediately, I dropped everything and hurried to the cafe, determined to catch him in the act.
As I walked in, there he was, sitting alone but looking overjoyed to see me. He greeted me with a playful wave, teasing that I was running late. It turns out, he had orchestrated this ruse just to surprise me with a spontaneous date because our hectic schedules had kept us apart. We ended up having an amazing time together.
