He is unreachable on the phone and she spends all night at an airport waiting for him to show up. She is afraid to tell her friends and family because she doesn't want to ruin their holidays. She gets a place and tries to understand what happened. She goes on a little trip to find him where he was supposed to spend his holidays and meets Pete on the train. They hit it off right away. She spends her days doing touristy things with Pete. But soon she gets a job offer and goes back, with a promise to see Pete when he goes to visit London in spring.
