An Amorous Stranger flash fiction

The Amorous Stranger


The girls at the disco were beautiful seventeens.

"I didn't want to come!" Libby was angry. "I hate dances. No boys talk to me. They don't look at me!

Janet tried to calm her. "You look beautiful –wait…" A handsome stranger approached. Libby was ecstatic. They danced into the shadows.

Janet went home alone at 2:00 am. She chewed her fingernails until she could stand in the longer. Where have they gone? She dialled police at 4 AM.

 9:00 am a policewoman arrived. "We found her name bracelet –she's still missing–sorry."

Janet's hand flew to her mouth. I knew I shouldn't have let her go with an amorous stranger.
