Episode 70: Heartbreak for Alice?

Alice’s mum:	Alice, you sound dreadful – what’s the matter?
Alice:	Oh nothing Mum.
Alice’s mum:	Doesn’t sound like nothing to me Alice.
Alice:	Mum, you can’t do anything to help.
Alice’s mum:	Maybe not Alice, but you might feel better if you talk about it.
Alice:	Ok, well, I had a date with Paul last night, and when I arrived at the restaurant, he was talking to somebody on the phone, but he didn’t see me come in, and I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, but I heard what he was saying, and I heard him say something like, ‘I can’t wait to see you’ and he said, ‘darling’ and then I heard him say, ‘I love you’!
Alice’s mum:	Oh Alice, there’s probably a perfectly reasonable explanation.
Alice:	He’s seeing someone else Mum, that’s the explanation!
