<human>: Today I was ordering some lunch in the food court with my three year old daughter and I saw an old friend of mine standing at the back of the line. While waiting for my food I thought I would try to take a sneaky photo of said old friend to send to another friend to show her how she looked after not seeing her for all these years, without knowing I had left the flash on on my phone.

Of course she saw the phone sneakily pointed at her but I tried to recover by pretending that I was taking a photo of my daughter and took a few more pictures. I don't think I covered it up very well judging by all the looks I was getting so I left quickly with my head down.

Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell
<bot>: Saw an old friend and took a photo of her not realising the flash was on, tried to cover it up and pretended I was taking photos of my kid then gave up and bailed
