TAKEN twenty eight Flora fell flat on her bed. Her date was nice with her boss, but she was sad she ruined it by asking that deep and personal question. She could understand the trauma one can go through losing a loved one and she didn't blame him for his breakdown. It was certainly tragic. She picked her phone and dialed Yvonne's number. It rang thrice before she picked up with broad smile. It was a different time of the day where she was, so the day was brighter and Flora could see her well in a room."I just got back from work. You?" Yvonne asked "Same. We worked late today, so..." she didn't dare tell Yvonne she went on a date. "Vonn who's that?"

He was not in his broken mood like yesterday so she gave a sigh of relief."You called so sudden, I thought..." she said but he cut in with his finger pointing at her. He stands up and sits on his own desk right in front of her. "Guess you won't be alone now" he said with another smile."What do you mean?" she asked her boss."Marcus agreed to you staying at his place" he announced"That's great news Allen!"

She hadn't thought about it earlier, same house or not. Her night would still be lonely. Yvonne was the only perfect person. It felt more awkward here. No memory of her, her scent gone, everything smell so new at the same time old. She picked up her phone and sigh loudly. How was she going to get through to Allen, she seriously needed company. Or would she made friends with Stella tonight? No. She's probably asleep with her husband. She moved to her message and typed. "Asleep" she sent to Allen. She grabbed her pillow tighter and grunts and wished sleep could come. Her phone beeped and she immediately checked it.'Open the door?' the message said. 'Oh my God' she whispered under her breath. Was he coming to her room before? How could he knows she would still be awake. She put on her night gow
