My name was enough to garner people's attention But in this country, no one knew of me. Sadly. I turned around to face a woman who still had her fingers wrapped around a mouse and a gum slightly sticking out of her mouth “Where do you think this is for you to enter as you wish” She gestured at the logbook and said dryly “Visitor's sign in” Although angered at her attitude, I decided not to tell who I was.

Miss Lawn doesn't see anyone without an appointment.” Kate’s mouth dropped. “But… at least tell her! Just go in and say it is Kate Grimes.

Please leave now or I will be forced to report this as a disturbance.”

He loved Emily so much and living without her was hell for him. He was in his office one day when his secretary informed him that he had a visitor. “Is the visitor on appointment?” “Emmm. Err…” “Have you lost your tongue?” Noah queried. “No sir. The visitor is Miss Shields.” “Is the visitor on an appointment? Why can't you answer a simple question?” “No sir.

I held my tray tight and waited my turn, ignoring the ache in my legs. At last, I got my food… lukewarm rice, watery stew and followed Mari to an empty bench. I had barely taken two spoons of food when an officer tapped the table beside me. “You. Get up, you’ve got a Visitor.” I froze. My heart lifted… then sank… then lifted again. A visitor?

But my parents were coming home early today and they had a visitor. “I’m sorry, I can’t come,” I said softly. “Huh? Why? My brother knows you’re coming,” Cheska said, disappointed. “My parents are coming home early. I need to be there because they have a visitor. But if I get the chance, I’ll come. I just can’t promise,” I explained. “Who’s your visitor?” Hannah asked, curiosity sparkling in her eyes. “I don’t know,” I admitted. “Mom said it’s a friend from the States.”
