Even ex-callgirls get the blues.

The scene: A trendy coffeehouse in the University of Toronto campus area.


She's a young, robust, longhaired light brunette dressed in black skiing wear. Her hair is tight on her head in a topknot, and she's slightly distraught as she chats on her cell to a supportive friend.

Coed: "... So, right, he just wasn't where he said he would be when he said he would be... so, you know, he's just so not boyfriend material, I guess. ...Yeah, it's a shame, cuz, you know..." sniffle

There's a pause when her supportive friend must remind her of something amusing, because suddenly she giggles.

Coed: "Yeah! I know! It's a shame I wasn't still seventeen, cuz I coulda charged him for it!"
