Who: Oscar, Joséphine When: Evening Where: Le Passant Summary: Oscar arranges to meet Joséphine after dark Complete Rating: PG-13
Oscar made the route in record time, despite the detour he had to make to bypass a German patrol. Spotting Le Passant from one of his jumps between roofs, he slowed his pace. Rattling down a cold metal fire escape, he dropped to street level and slipped his plimsolls on. Le Passant, after 8. That's what the card had said. He'd left the little potted plant, bought from a florists just off the high-street and with the note enclosed on Joséphine's doorstep.
He'd noticed a lot of activity surrounding the little café, and at least he could check it out with the pretence of meeting someone.
Shuffling to the end of the narrow alleyway, he scanned to each end of the road, before briskly crossing to Le Passant, hoping he wasn't too late.
