It has been twenty minutes since I messed up the office. I have completely cleaned the office up and put all the rugs away. I dry the wet documents too with a hair dryer I borrow from Mila.

Don’t ask me why she brings a hair dryer to work, because you will never know women, hah.

To compensate him, I ran to the pantry and made him a new cup of coffee. Although it is not the ristretto he loves, it smells good enough for me. I hope he will feel pleased when he drinks it.

Not long after I have settled everything down, Jamie is finally done with his bath.

While just by the moment when I step across the door of the bathroom, I see a man standing right in front of me staring straight at me. “AH!” oh crap! My deep man's voice elapsed my lips before I could notice! I quickly clear my throat and repeat my last words in a high pitch voice, “I-I mean, ahh!” After seeing me jump, the man’s face turns blank, he stretches his arms out and waves his palms in front of his chest. “I am truly sorry, madame!

Hence, after I shake the mug in my hand trying to hint Jamie about the mug washing, I walk to the doors. While just when I place my hand on the cold door knob, Jamie suddenly calls upon me. “Chandelier.” With my hand remaining on the door knob, I turn my head back to him, “Yes, Jamie?” I asked. He puts his pen down too, he asks, “Do you have plans tonight?” Do I have plans tonight? I take a short while to ponder. I pl

    Time is quarter past eight at night when the stars gaze in the dark blue sky, and lights on the streets lighten up the way for the people. Maybe you won’t believe it, because I don’t——I am currently sitting at one of the tables leaning against the glass curtain in an Italian cuisine named Paradiso di Figaro, located on the seventy-first floor of a building situated near to the DuSable Bridge. Paradiso di Figaro is owned by a friend of Jamie——Figaro Lombardo, the head chef. I have heard of this restaurant being the most expensive yet popular restaurant in Michigan Avenue, for being one of the restaurants with the most beautiful 360 degree view observation deck throughout the floor. The view is mesmerizing. However, tonight I find it empty here. I figure Jamie might have

Just as I enter his car, I remove my wig and turn to Victor who is staring at me with an excited face. “How's the date?” he asked. I pout, “It seems like it is not considered as a date, but…” I then put up a smile, “He is trying to keep me by his side.” As Victor hears me, he immediately picks two cans of Jack Daniel’s Whiskey and Seltzer up from the cup holder. He hands one to me. With a bright smile, he opens his drink, “Cheers.” cheered Victor, “To Henrietta.”

Out of surprise, Bobby let my hand slip off. “I was waiting for you right across the street! It seems like I’ve gotten to the wrong place!” The girl's action draws me out of disappointment, yet her words make me hesitate for a moment. Why is she grabbing my hand? Why did she talk like she was waiting for me to go somewhere together? Who is she? Do I know her? Has she mistaken me for her friend?
