How did Oliver’s diorama presentation go? A++, I’m assuming, considering he was aided by someone holding a degree in the subject matter.
He earned a 95.
Respectable.
He was robbed.
Ahhh so you were a stellar student growing up?
Not quite. But I aspired to be stellar.
Wanting to be something is half the battle.
Then I guess it’s a good thing I desperately want to be a writer.
You already are a writer. Now we’re going about making you a publishedauthor.
Cecily driving you crazy yet? She can be strict.
I like her style. She means what she says. Yesterday we were brainstorming my bio and she called me a reticent fool.
???
She was right. I was being a reticent fool.
Good to know her tough love style works well with you. I have to go. Paloma and the architect next door are arguing.
What happened with Paloma and the architect yesterday?
Words were flung like knives. Fire shot from her eyes. I’m positive she’s in love but won’t admit it. The architect though? He knows he’s in love. He asked her to have dinner with him this weekend.
I hope he has final instructions set up. Paloma has the most creative and untraceable way to off someone.

That’s an ace I’ll keep tucked in my back pocket, thank you very much.
Finally found your nickname.
And that would be?
Ace.
Hey, Ace. How was Paloma’s date?
She’s been out with him two more times! She swears she’s only letting him buy her dinner because I don’t pay her enough.
Are you a bad boss?
Hardly. I can tell she likes him because she starts talking fast when the subject of him comes up.
She already talks faster than I can keep up with.
You’ll get used to it the more time you spend around her.
I’m assuming you saw your plane ticket I emailed to you?
Yep. Send me your info and I’ll reimburse you.
