Gabriel – Aged 29. 

I spray on my cologne and do up the cuff links on my shirt as I glance at my watch. 

Where is she? 

I pull on my suit jacket and go into the bathroom and do my hair in the mirror. I hear my 

office door open and close. “Morning, Gabriel,” Vee calls as she rushes in. 

“What time do you call this?” I call. 

“You aren’t even ready yet,” she calls back as she opens my computer. “I don’t start work

“I asked you a question.” 

“What is it?” She screws up her face as if I am a major inconvenience. 

“Who are you having lunch with?” 

“A friend.” 

“What friend?” 

“You don’t know her.”

“You’re also disgusting.” 

“Got to admit.” I smirk as I sip my coffee. “Disgustingly exhausting is high on my
