With a large bag of sweet popcorn on her lap, she couldn’t help but smile as the light dimmed and the trailers started. She could only see a couple of heads in front of her and without counting, guessed there could be no more than five people at the most she was sharing the cinema with. As the opening title commenced, she stuffed a handful if popcorn in her mouth and settled into doing what she did every Friday morning. She had stopped working on Fridays three years ago. Instead of sleeping in which she strictly reserved for Sundays, she used Friday’s to watch the latest releases in empty cinemas. Most of the staff knew her well enough to say hi. The staff had even created a nickname for her, calling her Girl Friday. Steph liked her name and had rather proudly told her work colleagues about it. Coming here was the one part of her routine she never failed to keep. She carried on chomping away at the popcorn as she watched the opening title play.
