After a Call from a Stranger, a Woman’s Recent Love Story Turns Into a Drama – Story of the Day

“All men are liars.” With these words, Violet ended her radio program. Her life experiences and the countless stories she heard from her listeners had proven it. But, a date with a coworker made her question her belief. After a call from a stranger, she was convinced she had been right all along.

Violet sat comfortably in her chair, leaning slightly toward the microphone in the cozy, dimly lit studio of a local radio station.

The equipment’s soft hum and the faint buzz of the control board’s lights cast a warm, golden glow across the room.

Opposite her was James, her co-host, his posture more relaxed, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the table as they listened to the voice crackling through the speakers.

“He’s pulling away from me…” Susan’s voice trembled, and a muffled sob came through.

“I don’t know what to do. We barely talk anymore. I never thought I’d turn to a radio show for advice, but I don’t have anyone else who’ll listen.”

Violet adjusted her headphones, her expression softening.

“Don’t worry, Suzy, right? That’s your name?”

Her voice was calm, like the steady rhythm of a heartbeat, offering comfort through the static.

“Yes, it’s Susan,” the caller confirmed, her breath hitching.

“Well, Suzy, that’s why we have this segment—to help people like you with relationship struggles. Thank you for sharing your story. It’s brave of you.”

Susan hesitated before asking, “So… what do you think I should do, Violet?”

Violet straightened in her chair, her tone sharp yet controlled.

“The same thing I always say—forget him. He’s either cheating on you or stringing you along. Either way, you deserve better.”

James’s head snapped up, and he raised an eyebrow at her.

“Violet, maybe we shouldn’t jump to conclusions. It could be anything—stress at work, personal issues. Maybe he doesn’t know how to communicate.”

Violet gave him a sidelong glance.

“Or maybe he has a mistress,” she said dryly. “Let’s not sugarcoat it. All men are liars.”

The tension hung for a moment, but Violet quickly turned back to the microphone, her professional smile firmly in place.

“Thanks for tuning in, folks. Enjoy the next song.” She flipped the switch, cutting their microphones.

Music filled the studio, and Violet leaned back, the faintest smirk playing on her lips.

James, however, shook his head slightly, unsure whether to push back or let it slide.

The studio lights dimmed slightly as the end-of-shift silence settled over the room.

Violet gathered her things—her notebook, headphones, and an oversized scarf she draped over her shoulder.

She moved with her usual efficiency, but her mind was already on the comfort of home and a hot cup of tea.

James lingered by the console, shifting his weight from one foot to the other.

His usual easygoing demeanor seemed absent, replaced by a noticeable nervousness. Finally, he stepped closer, clearing his throat.

“You were ruthless with men today, as usual,” he said, flashing her a sheepish grin. His attempt at humor was met with a raised eyebrow.

Violet paused and glanced at him.

“You’ve been here six months, James,” she replied flatly. “I thought you’d have figured out by now what our audience expects.”

“So, it’s just for ratings, then?” James asked, tilting his head.

“You don’t actually believe all that?”

Violet shrugged, her expression unreadable.

“I never said that. What do you want, James? I was about to head home.”

James rubbed the back of his neck, looking anywhere but at her. “Well, uh… I’ve been meaning to ask…” His words trailed off as his confidence wavered.

“Spit it out,” Violet said, smirking slightly, amused by his awkwardness. “Talking is supposed to be your job.”

He chuckled nervously, his face flushing. “Would you, um… like to go on a date with me?”

“A date?” Violet blinked, caught off guard. “Like a date-date?”

“Yes. Exactly. There’s a great place nearby I think you’d like.”

Violet hesitated, shifting her bag on her shoulder. “James, you know I’m not big on dating.”

“Because you think all men are liars, right?” James teased. His tone was light but daring. “Let me prove that not all of us are that bad. Some of us are mostly honest.”

“Mostly?” Violet repeated, laughing despite herself. “Fine. But don’t expect miracles.”

“That’s good enough for me,” James said, his grin widening as he grabbed his coat.

The small restaurant felt like a hidden gem, the kind of place you’d never stumble upon unless someone showed you.

Candlelight flickered on every table, casting warm, golden hues across the room while the smooth notes of live jazz wove through the air.

The musicians, tucked into a corner, played as though they were part of the room’s heartbeat, their gentle melodies making the space feel alive yet soothing.

James pulled out a chair for Violet, his movements natural, unforced. Violet raised an eyebrow but couldn’t help a small smile as she sat down.

“Chivalry isn’t dead, I see,” she teased.

“Well, I try,” James said with a grin, taking his seat across from her.

Violet glanced around, taking in the cozy surroundings.

“This place is charming,” she admitted. “I didn’t know spots like this still existed.”

“Judging by that look on your face, you don’t go to places like this often,” James said, leaning forward slightly, his tone playful.

“I don’t go on dates often, that’s for sure,” Violet replied, smoothing the napkin on her lap.

“Really? Hard to believe. A radio host and such a beauty? You must have admirers.”

Violet’s cheeks turned pink, and she waved him off.

“Stop it. I used to date, but I gave it up a long time ago. It always felt like a waste of time.”

James tilted his head, curiosity flickering in his eyes. “Why’s that?”

Violet hesitated before answering.

“After dealing with betrayal, lies, and hearing all those stories on the show… It’s hard to believe in love anymore.”

James’s expression softened.

“Well,” he said gently, “not all of us are so bad.”

“Every man says that,” Violet sighed, leaning back in her chair.

James chuckled but didn’t push further. Instead, he started sharing a story about his childhood, painting vivid pictures of his clumsy adventures that left Violet laughing.

The conversation shifted naturally from funny anecdotes to deeper reflections about their lives.

Violet found herself relaxing in a way she hadn’t expected, her guard lowering with each shared laugh.

“See?” James said, grinning as she wiped away tears of laughter. “Not so bad spending time with me, is it?”

“Don’t get ahead of yourself,” Violet replied, though her smile betrayed her words.

James stood, gesturing toward the restroom. “I’ll be right back. But I want to hear the rest of your story about the bird when I get back.”

“Hurry up, or I’ll forget it,” Violet called after him, still chuckling as she sipped her water.

Her phone buzzed on the table, interrupting her thoughts.

She frowned at the unfamiliar number and hesitated, but curiosity got the better of her.

“Hello?” she answered.

“Hi, this is Jane,” a hesitant voice said on the other end.

“Sorry to call so late, but James hasn’t come home, and your number was the only one I could find. Is he with you?”

“Jane?” Violet asked, her voice suddenly tight. “Are you his sister?”

“Sister? No, I’m his girlfriend,” Jane replied sharply, the words cutting through the air like a knife.

Violet froze, the warmth of the evening draining away. Her heart pounded as Jane’s words echoed in her ears.

Without responding, she hung up, her hands trembling.

She grabbed her bag, scarf, and coat and walked briskly out of the restaurant, leaving behind the candlelight, the music, and the man she thought might have been different.

The next day at the radio station, Violet entered the studio with her usual brisk stride, her scarf loosely draped around her neck.

Her expression, however, was anything but usual. It was cold, distant—like a door slammed shut.

She avoided eye contact with James, who was already at the control board, adjusting levels and humming softly to himself.

“Hey, Violet,” James called out, his voice light. He looked up with a smile, but it faltered when she breezed past him without so much as a glance.

“I was worried about you last night. You left so suddenly. I tried calling you—”

“I’m fine,” Violet cut in, her tone sharp and clipped. She didn’t stop moving, setting her bag down with deliberate force.

James frowned, taking a cautious step toward her.

“Did I do something wrong?” he asked hesitantly, his voice quieter now.

“You tell me,” she snapped, finally meeting his eyes, her glare icy. “Or maybe ask Jane.”

The name hit him like a slap, and his brow furrowed. “Jane? How do you know her?”

“Your girlfriend called me,” she said icily. “She wanted to know when you’d be home. Don’t worry—I didn’t keep you too long.”

“Violet, wait—” James started, his hands raised as if to stop the invisible storm brewing between them.

“One more word,” Violet interrupted, her voice cutting through the room like a blade, “and you’ll be looking for a new job.”

James froze, his mouth half-open, then closed it. He nodded stiffly and returned to his seat, his shoulders slumping slightly.

The day dragged on in frosty silence.

By mid-afternoon, Violet noticed something strange. James didn’t look like a man caught in a lie; he looked genuinely upset.

His face was pale, his expression distant, as if the weight of the world sat on his shoulders.

Curiosity gnawed at her. By the end of the day, she found herself following him as he left the building.

Near the station’s entrance, a young woman stood waiting. Her arms were crossed, her expression a mix of anger and desperation.

“James! We need to talk!” the woman shouted, stepping closer.

James stopped abruptly and sighed. “We’ve got nothing to talk about, Jane,” he said, his voice firm but weary. “I’ve told you before—we’re done. It has been months! Why won’t you let it go already!?”

“But I love you! No one else will ever love you the way I do! Even that coworker of yours!” Jane cried, her voice breaking.

“Enough!” James snapped. “Because of the lies you told her, Violet won’t even look at me. I’ve had it, Jane. Stay out of my life.”

Jane burst into tears, her shoulders shaking as she pleaded one last time, but James didn’t budge.

Finally, she climbed into her car and drove away, leaving James standing alone. He sank onto the building’s steps, burying his face in his hands.

Violet hesitated before stepping forward. “James…” she said quietly. “I heard everything.”

He looked up, his eyes tired but calm. “Now you know what I was trying to explain,” he said.

“I’m sorry,” Violet said softly, her voice filled with genuine regret. “But can you blame me for assuming the worst?”

“No. But not only men can lie as you can see.”

She managed a faint smile, her defenses softening.

“Maybe not. Should we give this another try?”

James straightened, a hint of hope returning to his face.

“Why not?” he replied, a small grin tugging at his lips. “After all, tonight’s already been full of surprises.”

‘That’s for Mommy’s Friend’: Little Girl’s Reveal Almost Cost Me My Job—Story of the Day

I worked as a nanny. My little Thea was my sunshine, making my days fly by. One afternoon, she found a man’s wallet full of cash under her bed. I took it to Thea’s father, but he said it wasn’t his. “It’s for Mommy’s friend!” That phrase nearly cost me my job later on.

I had been working in Max’s household for a few weeks, and the routine had become second nature. I would wake up early each morning to prepare breakfast for 6-year-old Thea.

The kitchen was always filled with the warm aroma of pancakes and freshly squeezed orange juice. We often cooked together.

“Good morning, sunshine!”

I greeted Thea one morning as the little girl shuffled into the kitchen.

Her eyes were still heavy with sleep.

“Good morning, Anna.”

She climbed onto a stool at the kitchen island. I set a plate of pancakes in front of her.

“Do you want blueberries or strawberries today?”

“Blueberries, please.”

As I watched Thea eat, I thought about my huge love for this little girl.

“You’re my little blueberry, you know that?”

Thea giggled. “I know.”

After breakfast, I helped Thea get ready for school.

“Hold still, Thea, I need to get this braid just right.”

“Okay, but can you make it like Elsa’s braid today?”

“Of course, Elsa it is,” I replied, carefully braiding Thea’s curly blonde hair. I tied the end of the braid with a ribbon.

“You look beautiful, Thea.”

“Thank you, Anna. You always make my hair so pretty,” Thea replied, giving me a big hug.

I had always wanted children of my own but had discovered a few years ago that I couldn’t have any. I loved the girl as if she were my daughter, pouring all my maternal affection into our relationship.

After dropping Thea off at school, I returned home to take care of the household chores.

Veronica, Max’s wife, rarely acknowledged my efforts. She was always busy with her daily pleasures.

Not even a thank you. But it’s okay. I’m here for Thea.

In the evening, I picked Thea up from school, and we would head back home for dinner. I always made sure Thea had her favorite meals.

“Do you want spaghetti or chicken tonight?”

“Spaghetti!”

Max, who was constantly busy with work, would join us whenever he could.

“You’re doing a wonderful job, Anna. Thea seems so happy,” he said that evening.

Despite his demanding schedule, he always tried to spend his free moments with his daughter. Thea was his only child from his first marriage, and Veronica didn’t want to have any children of her own.

So, Max poured all his affection and care into Thea and was deeply grateful to me for my dedication and genuine love for his little girl.

“Thank you, Max. Thea is a special girl. She deserves all the love and attention,” I replied, glancing over at Thea, who was engrossed in a puzzle on the floor.

However, despite the happy moments, I couldn’t ignore the tension that Veronica brought into the household. She spent most of her time away and showed little interest in Thea.

That night, as I tucked Thea into bed.

“Why doesn’t Mommy love me, Anna?”

My heart broke at the question.

“Oh, sweetheart, you are so loved. I love you very much, and so does your daddy. Sometimes, people don’t show their love in the same way, but that doesn’t mean you’re not special.”

Thea hugged me tightly. “I love you too, Anna.”

I knew my love and support could make a real difference, and I was determined to give Thea the best childhood possible.

One sunny afternoon, Thea and I were playing in the nursery. The room was filled with toys, colorful drawings on the walls, and the soft hum of children’s music playing in the background.

Thea was busy pretending her dolls were having a tea party.

“Anna, can you pour the tea for Daisy?”

“Of course, Daisy,” I replied, carefully pretending to pour invisible tea into a tiny cup.

As we played, Thea crawled under the bed to retrieve a toy she had dropped.

“Anna, look what I found!”

She emerged holding a man’s wallet.

“Hmm, let’s see what’s inside.”

The wallet was filled with cash! No cards no ID. Just cash.

This must belong to Max. We should return it to him.

I held Thea’s hand, and we walked downstairs to Max’s home office. He was at his desk, surrounded by papers and his laptop.

“Max, we found this wallet in Thea’s nursery,” I said, holding it out to him.

“This isn’t mine.”

Just then, Thea, who had been looking around curiously, piped up, “Oh, that’s a toy! That’s for Mommy’s Friend!”

Max and I exchanged a surprised glance.

Before we could say anything, Veronica walked in. She noticed the wallet in Max’s hand and immediately narrowed her eyes.

“What’s going on here?”

“We found this wallet in Thea’s nursery. Thea said it belongs to one of your friends.”

Veronica’s eyes flashed.

“That’s ridiculous! Anna, you must have taken this from one of the workers!”

“I would never…” I began, but Max interrupted.

“Veronica, that’s enough. Anna is always with Thea. She wouldn’t do something like that.”

Veronica’s face twisted with anger.

Max continued, “I trust Anna. This is a misunderstanding.”

Veronica huffed, “How can you be so sure? You barely know her!”

Max stood his ground.

For illustration purposes only | Source: Pexels

“I know enough to trust her. And I trust Thea’s word too. If she says it’s a toy, then it’s a toy.”

Veronica glared at me, but I held my head high. I had nothing to hide.

Veronica shot me one last icy look before storming out of the room.

As she passed by me, she leaned in and whispered, “You’re finished.”

Max turned to me. “I’m sorry about that, Anna. Veronica can be… difficult.”

“It’s alright, Max. I understand.”

As Thea and I left the office, I couldn’t shake the feeling of unease. Veronica’s reaction was harsh and unfounded.

Why is she so eager to accuse me?

The following afternoon, Veronica called me into the living room. She was sitting elegantly on the sofa, watching me carefully.

“Anna, I was thinking of taking Thea out for a walk this afternoon. Why don’t you stay here and prepare dinner?”

I hesitated for a moment, but couldn’t find a reason to object.

“Sure, Veronica,” I replied, trying to sound cheerful.

“Great. Thea loves the playground, so we’ll be there if you need us.”

I headed to the kitchen, watching from the window as Veronica and Thea walked down the path to the playground. I busied myself with chopping vegetables.

“It’s just a walk,” I told myself. “Everything will be fine.”

Half an hour later, I heard the front door open and close.

For illustration purposes only | Source: Pexels

Max’s voice echoed through the house, “I’m home!”

I wiped my hands on a towel and walked out to greet him.

“Hi, Max. How was your day?”

“Busy as always,” he replied, glancing around. “Where’s Thea?”

“Veronica took her to the playground. They should be back soon.”

For illustration purposes only | Source: Pexels

“The playground? By themselves?”

Without waiting for a response, he grabbed his coat and headed out the door.

I stood there, a sinking feeling in my stomach.

“Please let everything be alright,” I whispered.

It felt like an eternity before Max returned, holding a very upset Thea by the hand. Her clothes were dirty, and she had a scrape on her knee.

“Max, what happened?” I asked, rushing over.

Max’s face was a storm of anger.

“I found Thea playing alone at the playground. Veronica was nowhere in sight!”

“I didn’t know, Max. I swear I thought Veronica was with her the whole time.”

Veronica was listening to our conversation at the doorway.

“Max, I just went to the store for a minute. I was sure Thea’s playing with Anna.”

Max turned to me, his anger misdirected.

“Anna, you should have been with her. This is unacceptable.”

“But, Max…” I started, but he cut me off.

“No excuses, Anna. Pack your things. You’re fired.”

Tears filled my eyes as I nodded, too shocked to argue. I headed upstairs to pack.

This can’t be happening. How did everything go so wrong?

As I walked down the stairs with my suitcase, Veronica stood in the hallway, a smug look on her face.

She had orchestrated this whole thing, and I had fallen right into her trap. I kept walking, trying to ignore the satisfaction in her eyes.

I saw Thea running towards me, tears streaming down her face. “Anna, please don’t go! Please!”

I knelt to her level, my own eyes filling with tears.

“I don’t want to leave either, Thea, but I have to.”

Thea turned to her father, who was standing in the doorway.

“Daddy, please let Anna stay! Veronica never plays with me. She’s always with her friend when you’re not here. I want to stay with Anna!”

Max frowned. “What do you mean, sweetheart?”

Thea wiped her eyes.

“Veronica has a friend who comes over a lot. They play in her room while I watch cartoons. She even has pictures of him on her phone.”

Max’s face darkened. “Is this true, Thea?”

For illustration purposes only | Source: Midjourney

For illustration purposes only | Source: Midjourney

“Yes, Daddy. Yesterday at the playground, Veronica left me alone while she went to talk to him.”

Max looked stunned. He turned to Veronica, who had just walked in. “Veronica, is this true?”

Veronica’s face twisted with anger. “This is ridiculous! She’s just a child. What does she know?”

“Thea wouldn’t lie about this. Why didn’t you tell me about this ‘friend’?”

Veronica lost her temper.

For illustration purposes only | Source: Midjourney

For illustration purposes only | Source: Midjourney

“Because you’re never around, Max! You’re always at work. I have no life, no one to talk to. And you spend all your free time with Thea, ignoring me completely!”

“That doesn’t justify your actions. You put Thea in danger and lied to me.”

Veronica glared at me. “This is all your fault, Anna. You turned them against me.”

I was trying to stay calm. “Veronica, all I’ve ever wanted is to take care of Thea. She needs love and attention.”

Max raised his hand.

For illustration purposes only | Source: Pexels

“I’ve heard enough. Your actions are unjustifiable, Veronica. You put Thea in danger, and I can’t forgive that. You should leave.”

Veronica looked shocked.

“You’re kicking me out? For her?”

She stormed out of the room, slamming the door behind her. I held Thea close as she sobbed into my shoulder. Max approached us, his eyes softening.

“Anna, I’m so sorry. I didn’t see what was happening. Please, stay and help us through this.”

“Of course, Max. I’ll always be here for Thea.”

In the days that followed, I stayed on as Thea’s nanny. Max began to spend more time with his daughter.

We spent our days playing games, having picnics in the garden, and enjoying family dinners. It felt like we were becoming a real family.

Sometimes, as I watched Max and Thea together, I couldn’t help but imagine what it would be like if we truly were one. Those thoughts crept into my mind more often than I’d like to admit.

One evening, as I was tucking Thea into bed, Max knocked on the doorframe.

“Anna, can I talk to you for a moment?”

“Of course, Max,” I said, giving Thea a final kiss on the forehead before stepping out into the hallway.

Max looked a bit nervous, which was unusual for him.

“I was wondering if you’d like to have dinner with me tomorrow. Just the two of us.”

“Are you asking me out on a date?”

“Yes, I am. We’ve been through a lot, and I’d like to spend some time with you outside of the house.”

I agreed, feeling a flutter of excitement. As I headed to my room to prepare for the next day, I couldn’t help but smile.
