Nine

He had asked me out on a date today
"Restaurant I know,but not the time",I sigh.
So standing in the corridor, signaled him in class
He threw me a paper and we waved bye.
There was number six written on it ,I rush 
To get ready quick and look beautiful to surprise.
I get there, wait until patience crossed the line,
Then angrily call him up when he doesn't show up.. 
Just to hear him say,"Baby,I meant nine!"

I like your punch line at the end !! I think she will have a hard time judging these poems, even with such simple rules to follow. This made me smile, a paper turned upside down..so sad too !! Enjoyed !!
