The pub’s low hum swirled around Rebecca like smoke as Queen played faintly on the jukebox. Her platinum blonde hair caught the dim light, her posture rigid, nails tapping a nervous staccato against the oak table. She hated waiting. She hated uncertainty. And she certainly hated that Ted Lasso had talked her into a blind date with an unknown American. No name. No photo. Just Ted’s cheerful promise they’d ‘get on like a house on fire.’ It felt less comforting and more vaguely threatening. She exhaled slowly, reaching for her wine. At least the sauvignon blanc was decent.
