“Why would you bring up the exchange of money? Neither of you are prostitutes!” she said in outrage. “Of
course, Alexander stopped things. I'm sure that had humiliated him.”
“But he was the one who first brought up money,” | argued. “I'm not the one who introduced it into the
conversation.”
She raised her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes. “Are you sure? What are the exact words that Alexander had
said?”
| searched my memory, but trying to recall what Alexander had said in that moment was like trying to catch fog
with my hands. It kept slipping away fromright before | could grasp onto his words.
“Honestly, I'm not sure,” | admitted. “I had taken a shot of whiskey before we kissed.” | wrung my hands in my
lap.
My friend’s nose crinkled. “But you hate whiskey.”
| sighed. “It’s a long story. Tonight was just...very weird.”
We lapsed into silence, and thankfully, Ava letbe alone with my thoughts, something that | knew was hard
for her. As | replayed our kiss, | fidgeted in my seat. Now that the initial shock had worn off, remorse was flowing
through me. What had | been thinking? Did it really only takeone shot and the thrill of running away from
danger to kiss my boss? And it wasn't like | just kissed him. If | had it my way, Alexander and | would probably be
making passionate love under the moonlight right now.

money. Even though the fact that our twas cut short made my heart lower in a way that it had never done
before.
Ava could sense my depressed mood, and she put her arm around me. As she was rubbing my arm gently, she
noticed the shopping bag on the floor in the place that | had dropped it when | cin. The contents had spilled
out of it. Bread, whiskey, and condoms were spilling out of it. My face flushed. Would my embarrassment ever
end?
“Wow, you definitely prepared to spend the night with Alexander,” she said and nodded her head approvingly.
“No, it’s not what you think.” | sighed, too tired to explain the strange assortment of items.
My friend squeezed my shoulder, and | got a whiff of her strawberry lemon scented shampoo. The smell was
reassuringly familiar. “Don’t be too sad. Alexander is obsessed with you. You will get many more chances with
him,” she said.
| didn’t say anything as a wave of exhaustion overwhelmed me.
Ava seemed to sense that | was too tired to walk to my bedroom, so she brought out a pillow and blanket and
tuckedin on the couch. | mumbled a quiet thanks and immediately drifted off to sleep.
The next morning, | woke up with my head pounding like someone had hitwith a hammer repeatedly as |
slept. | looked at my phone and saw that it was still pretty early, so I rolled over and tried to fall back asleep. But
when | closed my eyes, images from last night flooded into my head. Having dinner with Alexander, the
mysterious bottle of wine, and our confusion at the convenience store.
