Sara who is dating Joseph describes her typical day.
06:00am: Sara awakes and immediately thinks of Joseph.
06.30am: While eating breakfast Sara wonders if she should call Joseph and wish him good luck for his big presentation later that morning.
06.45am: Sara getting dressed after her shower decides to use a bodyspray that she knows Joseph loves.
08.15am: While driving to work Sara hears on the radio that song by that group that she and Joseph love. As Joseph's birthday is coming up she wonders if Joseph would like the group's latest CD as a present.
08.55am: Sara arrives at work and mentally wishes Joseph 'good luck' as his presentation is about to start.
09.30am: Sara is at her desk doing her job but her mind is never far away from Joseph. Right now, thinks Sara, Joseph will be well into his important presentation.
10.00am: Sara has a coffee break and her friend Allison comes over to her desk and talks to her about her latest skiing trip. Sara makes a mental note to find out more about this ski resort because she thinks that she and Joseph might go there on a long weekend together.
10.15am: Sara is aware that Joseph's presentation will be now over. She wonders if she should call him. She calls him and she finds him a little distant and distracted. He didn't seem very enthusiastic about going on holiday together. Sara wonders if he really loves her but, puts his unloving manner on the phone down to him being tired after his presentation.
12.30pm: Sara calls Joseph during her lunch hour and while Joseph's mood is better she detects a certain annoyance with her in his voice. She talks to her friend Allison about this and the two women puzzle over Joseph's behaviour.
2.00pm: Sara is still puzzling over Joseph's 'pulling-away' from her.
2.30pm: Sara cries in the Ladies' toilet. Allison is there for her and helps dry Sara's eyes. Allison thinks that Joseph is a creep for making Sara feel like this.
3:00pm: Sara is feeling better. The work day will soon be over and she has decided to cook Joseph his favourite dinner with his favourite wine. Sara decides to change into that babydoll that she knows Joseph likes straight after dinner. She is hoping that he will stay the night.
5:00pm: What a delightful surprise! Joseph is outside her office waiting to drive her home. His presentation went down very well and he is elated. Sara is delighted for him. She notices that there isn't a trace of his earlier 'coolness' towards her and she interprets this as a sign that he really does love her after all.
