Episode 23
Since Kimberly is not around to keep me busy, i decided to be to be going to the boutique every single day even though i know i’m not needed there, its better than being alone at home. As i was standing at the jewelry department admiring a beautiful necklace, i heard a familiar voice behinde me said
Chris: Hi. This is too good to be true.
Lucia: Hi.
Chris: Nice to see you again.
Lucia: What are you doing here ?
Chris: I came to see you
Lucia: How did you know i will be here ?
Chris: Take a guess.
Lucia: Kimberly.
Chris: If you say so. Could we go out for lunch ?
Lucia: Well umm!
Chris: Please, lunch wouldnt hurt.
Lucia: Fine, just lunch.
We both went out for lunch. During lunch i said.
Lucia: I cant believe she is still out of town and still setting me up.
Chris: I guess she have her ways. How did you two meet ?
Lucia: At a bookstore when we both grabbed the last copy of a book on a shelf.
Chris: Interesting!
