Tears fell upon a picture held gently by a woman's pair of hands. The man in the picture was handsome with smooth features and blond hair...he was a dream in her eyes.....but one fateful day had ruined every view she ever had of him. Laying the picture beside her pillow, the woman rose to her feet and checked her makeup in the mirror. The shiny blond locks atop her head were done up in ringlets with a silver tiara upon a circle of them. A black dress clung tightly to her slim figure and overall, she was stunning.
The young woman made her way out of the hotel room and meandered down the halls until she reached the diner of Jade Inn. It was an upperclass place, and quite evident by the service she was about to receive. The waiter seemed to know her by face already and when he greeted her, he took her hand and kissed it softly....then led her to her table where he pulled out her chair, seated her, and handed her a menu.
"I shall look for your guest, ma'am."
He spoke in a slightly accented voice before returning to his place at the front desk. Indeed, she was awaiting a guest.....the man in the picture. An anonymous invitation had been sent to him with every detail needed, save for the sender's name. So she wait, keeping her eyes fixed upon the menu....waiting.
