After ringing her bell a numerous amount of times she’d finally answered. When she did open it I pushed past her to head towards the couch having felt the pain that comes with these heels after just a short period, “Well hello to you too. And look at you all jazzed out and all just to come see me?”

“In your wildest dreams Cherry. I just didn’t feel like having to go back home to do all this. And it's a shorter drive going from your place anyway.”

She slapped my knee and reached behind the couch for an envelope, “Here's both the invitations. Don’t lose them. Lisa said that Alexandra and her folks were going all out and got security to keep the ‘scrumps’ out. And as funny as it would be seeing your ass get hauled away they’re gonna take me away too for fighting to save you.”

Well I was wrong about her being the first one here. It’s been close to four hours full of unconnected calls, a few texts in the beginning before I started calling and a bottle and a half of this fancy sounding wine when I gave up. It was beyond humiliating seeing patrons come and go and then start to clear up.

I hadn’t even noticed I was the last until a woman walked up to my table startling me a bit, “Ma’am i know you were waiting on someone but we’re about to close. Jeff said you can stay until they close the kitchen in case your date does show up.”258Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ058L3qMhu6

“That’s what I should be calling you,” She winked at me before leaving me alone which confused me. Was I flirting? I didn’t mean to if I did…

I shook my head which only increased my dizziness and made my way over to the exit. I waited by the door, resting my back and head against the wall. Soft taps on my shoulder brought me back to my previous waitress who stood with a bright smile and a cup.

“Please tell my manager that. I think he has something against me after I turned him down over liking women. It's not my fault that I like silicon off girls rather than the real deal,” Her openness shocked me but thankfully was a nice distraction. Over the next thirty minutes or so I spent talking to her all while I still haven’t even gotten her name. I repeatedly checked my phone during it and soon told her why I was here in the first place.
