Nice to Know, Catie

As Stephanie handed over a drink to Jon, his phone suddenly rang. "Hey, Viv," Stephanie knew it was a lady who called up, so she whispered on Jon's left ear. "Work is over, it's time to celebrate" he looked at her but continued to speak to Vivian on the other line. "Have you got some news?" he took a few steps as she answered, "I've spoken with some of your security personnel, but they did advise that there are several things to look into," she was about to laugh when she said this, holding her jewelry box which is now empty. "No worries, Viv. I'll make sure this gets handled for you. I am so sorry," Jon was sincerely apologetic, but Vivian smiled with a fierce look in her eyes. "I am worried, if they took my jewelry, it will be fine. Just that they took the necklace you gave me." she touched her neck and the necklace that she is wearing. It was gold, with a heart shaped pendant. Jon gave it to Vivian on her nineteenth birthday, along with a huge teddy bear which he bought in Milan, Italy during a business trip. She didn't wear it in the morning, and she is sure that nobody has seen her wearing it within the hotel premises. Jon was a bit shocked. "The... The necklace?" "Yes," she answered with a smile. "The one you gave me on my nineteenth, you see Jon, I don't know what you may think, but I never wanted to lose it, as I've already lost you," she is becoming dramatic with her tone, but bit her lip and was trying her best not to laugh. "Oh, um. I didn't expect that you still have it. I'll do what I can, I promise." He was trying to assure her that everything will be alright. "Will see you in the morning, Viv. First thing," he hung up, trying to keep her calm. Stephanie was obviously frustrated, handed back his drink as he said, "Thank you." She shrugged it and smiled at him, "Are you free tomorrow night?" she asked. Jon looked at his watch, as it read 2:15 in the morning, he said to her, "I've got a tight schedule this week. The launch was of a great success and we'll have to deal with another event in a few days," he said, looking at the entire place as if looking for something in particular. "Looking for something?" she asked, and continued, "or someone?" He was able to get a glimpse from afar, noticed from the mezzanine a lady and a young man, talking and laughing. "I better go," he finished his drink and placed the glass on the marble top. "see you around, Stephanie. Congratulations!" he greeted her. He didn't give her a chance to say anything, as it was quite obvious with her face, Stephanie is not going to enjoy the night. Jon then walked towards the staircase, and went to where his eyes were fixed. From where he stood, when he gazed at the mezzanine floor, he can clearly see the beautiful smile of the young lady. Her cheeks were as pink as her dress, and her eyes were shining with innocence. "She must be enjoying his company." his eyes then went to see Alex, sitting on the couch across the table. He approached them and sat beside her. "You guys having fun?" he picked up a nacho and ate it. "Lots of it, sir!" Alex replied with excitement. "Why don't you order.." Alex cut him off, "She's allergic to alcohol." They were speaking about Cathy who was smiling at the two the entire time "This is the first time in my life that I've been to a place like this."  "Nice to know, Catie" he smiled and gave her a pat on the shoulder.
