The date

Two days later

"Opal, Opal hurry up, you'll be late for your date," said Showtime, standing at the door. Showtime then helped Opal finish off getting ready.

"Thanks for helping me sis, but you've got to go, you’ll be late for the show,“ said Opal.

"Alright, I'm going, have a fun time OK" said Showtime walking out the door.

"Yes, I will," said Opal, brushing her mane into place.

Twenty minutes later.

Opal left in the flat in her best dress, it was a long, flowing red dress with a jewel on the front that made it sparkle. And a veil that covered her face. They were meeting outside the Steps, but when Opal got there, what she found was Theo snogging (kissing with tongues) Taullaugh.

"What are you doing ? I thought you liked me," screamed Opal at Theo.

Theo saw Opal and shoved Taullaugh off him.

"Wait, Opal, its not what you think, wait," shouted Theo trotting after her. But Opal was galloping too fast for Theo to catch up and he lost her. Opal had turned into the new park, her hooves were throbbing. She sat in the park, looking down at a puddle covered in mud, wondering what was wrong with her. And if it couldn't get worse, it started raining. Opal leaned down in the rain and mud. Her outift was ruined and covered in mud (good rarity wasn't there, she would scream). Her mane was tangled and mangled. She didn't care anymore, she just couldn’t believe how naive she was, and wanted the earth to swallow her whole for trusting such a jerk.
