Dylan’s Point of View
When the cab came to a stop Dylan swung open the door and puked on the sidewalk. Kathrine held her hair back making sure she didn’t ruin her hair. She just kept apologizing to the cab driver. Kathrine then helped Dylan out of the cab and led the way into her apartment building to her floor.
“I don’t think you need to drive home in this condition,” Kathrine said with sympathy.
“Yeah, I will just crash on your couch,” Dylan replied while swinging back and forth.
“Sure,” Kathrine replied while unlocking her apartment.
Kathrine opened the door and led Dylan inside. Dylan spotted the couch and fell onto it face-first. She let out a loud sigh before turning over to face the roof. Scooting up she leaned against the backrest of the couch. She stared at Kathrine with loamy eyes.
“He’s into you,” Dylan said with a big smile stretching from one ear to the other.
“You’re drunk, you need to get some sleep,” Kathrine said while handing her a blanket.
“You know I’m right. Maybe he is the one? You never know.” Saying this Dylan covered herself, to warm up. Kathrine found a spot to sit next to her.
Kathrine shook her head before replying, “You’re being delusional. He is a successful businessman. No way he will ever go for someone as ordinary as me. Besides, he had probably forgotten all about me, and I will do the same.”
Dylan rolled her eyes, “Wow…” She fluttered her eyes quickly.
“What’s wrong?” Kathrine asked as she got ready to jump up.
Dylan lifted her hand, puckering her lips, “The world just spun for a second, I’m good.”
“Dude! Don’t fucking do that.” Kathrine replied while falling back into the chair.
“But back to the point, that guy was really into you,” Dylan said while leaning her head back.
“Please stop it. I’m not going to see him again.” Kathrine replied while making her way to her feet.
“Maybe you will. I gave my number to that cute blonde one.” Dylan then started to whisper, “If only I was in his bed at his moment, getting…” She stopped before continuing. “You know what.” She winked.
“Dude! Really?” Kathrine said while pouring water into a glass. “Is that the only thing you think about?” She asked while walking over to Dylan and handing her the glass of water.
“No…” Dylan stopped and thought for a few seconds, “Maybe, a little.”
“Seriously? Oh my gosh.” Kathrine said while she giggled.
Dylan also started to giggle. She leaned back, then looked back at Kathrine. Stretching out her arms, gesturing for Kathrine to snuggle her. Kathrine rolled her eyes and snuggled into her arms. Smiling.
“I never want to lose you. You are the best person that ever came into my life.” Dylan said as she played with Kathrine’s brown long hair.
“Just say you love me.” They both giggled. “You’re the best person in my life too.”
“But back to the point, will you ever see that guy again?” Dylan asked, then looked down at Kathrine.
“Maybe, might even work for him. He offered me a job. But doubt he will remember it.” Kathrine said with a sad facial expression.
“What? Then you need to see him later. And ask if he was joking or not. It might not be the job that you really want but at least you will be able to pay the bills, and not be homeless.” Dylan said as she tapped Kathrine’s arm.
“I’ll think about it. Not sure if the guy will remember me. Truth be told I can’t remember his name.” Kathrine said with a giggling tone.
“Please do. Just because it isn’t what you want to do for the rest of your life, maybe it is something you need. You’ll never know if you don’t try.” Saying this Dylan then let out a loud yawn.
“Maybe we should climb into bed, and not sleep on the couch?” Kathrine said with uncertainty.
“Yeah, yeah. We can do that in a minute.” Dylan scooted down, to get more comfortable. She then let out a sigh of relief. “So glad we didn’t drive.”
Kathrine giggled, “You can say that again.”
“Will you wake me up for woke?” Dylan asked as she snuggled tighter.
“Sure. I will try my best.” Kathrine replied, then sneaked out from her arms.
Dylan opened her eyes to see Kathrine standing in front of her adjusting her blanket. She gave her a smile and closed her eyes then dosed off.

Dylan opened her eyes to see that it was still dark outside. She felt refreshed, she decided to quickly run across the street to get eggs and bacon. When she returned to quickly check the time, it was just past six in the morning. Grabbing a pan and a toaster, she quickly started making breakfast.
She noticed that Kathrine was still fast asleep in her bed. Smiling, she continued with the breakfast. Throwing two slices of white bread into the toaster, then cracked two eggs into a pan, and placed bacon strips in as well. Turning on the kettle for a nice warm cup of coffee.
Dylan turned on some music and then started dancing in the kitchen. Grabbing her phone, she saw it was almost seven AM. The toast jumps out and grabbing it she spreads some butter for it to start melting. The eggs and bacon were sizzling in the pan.
Kathrine walked into the kitchen not long after, rubbing her eyes. “What’s going on?” She asked.
“Morning sleeping beauty. Did you sleep well?” Dylan asked as she dished up a place of breakfast for Kathrine.
“Yeah. What time is it?” Kathrine asked with a sleepy tone.
“Almost seven,” Dylan replied and placed the plate of food and a cup of coffee in front of Kathrine. “Eat up. Well, I need to get going sweetie, I will see you. I will call you later.” She grabbed a piece of toast before grabbing a travel mug with coffee.
“Enjoy work and thank you for this,” Kathrine said with a little smile.
“Love yah. Talk to you later. Kisses.” Dylan said while she blew Kathrine kisses.
“Bye,” Kathrine said as Dylan closed the door.
Dylan made her way down the stairs and stood on the curb, while waiting for a cab she received a text. She took out her phone from her pocket then opened the text, and it read:
‘Hey there beautiful, was wondering if we can meet for coffee later. Let me know when you are available. Anthony.’
A seductive smile appeared on her face. She decided to ignore his message for about an hour before she would reply. Putting away her phone, a cab pulled up at the curb, she jumped in and as the driver to take her to Wall Street where she worked.
Andrew’s Point of ViewAndrew made his way to his office where two men were waiting for him. Upon entering the men made their way to their feet and straightened their jackets.One of the men reached out his hand to shake Andrew’s, “Andrew nice to see you again, and thank you once again for meeting us. By the way, this is my son, Carlo.” Andrew shook his hand and greeted his son also with a handshake.Andrew then nodded before speaking, “Gentlemen, welcome. It is my pleasure.” Andrew greeted then made his way around his table and sat down, then gestured the two men to sit as well. “For what do I owe for this lovely meeting?”“Well, we here to submit a proposal.” The older man said while he crossed his left leg over his right.“A proposal? What kind of proposal, John?” Andrew asked with concern, while he sat straight in his chair.“A proposal for us to join forces. You and I both know that this would be the best decision going forward.” John said, then he placed his hands on his knees.
Kathrine’s Point of ViewWhile she enjoyed the breakfast that Dylan had made for her. Her mind started to think about the offer that Andrew had given her. She started to wonder if she should take him up on it. Kathrine needed to get some sort of income to be able to keep a roof over her head.After she had finished her food, she quickly jumped into the shower. The steam of the warm water started to fill the bathroom. Grabbing the scrunchy off the water tap she poured some shower gel onto it and started washing her stomach. She rinsed off her fit body and grabbed the shampoo bottle.Washing her long brown hair, that almost reached her butt. While rinsing off the shampoo she stood still and thought about all her life decisions.“What has become of my life? I’m not even able to keep a job, what will make this one any different?” Kathrine whispered to herself.Shaking her head to return to reality she turned off the shower and stepped out of the shower and grabbed a towel. She wrapped it
Kathrine’s Point of ViewKathrine left the coffee shop, her mind swirling with the worry over the text she had sent. The night before Andrew offered her a job to be his floor manager at his club. This was a golden opportunity for her, an opportunity that could change her life. The worry of not being able to pay her bills hang heavily over her.But now, uncertainty crawled closer to her, wondering if the message that she had just sent to Andrew was a mistake, if the message had been too eager. Or worse if she had said something wrong.As she took the drive home in the cab, her thoughts started to consume her. Replaying the text message in her mind, analyzing every word she had typed. After the car ride, she finally reached her apartment building. Climbing out of the cab her phone started to buzz in her purse. She took out her phone and she froze for a few seconds for what she saw.Andrew’s name on her phone, her heart skipped a beat. She hoped for a positive response.Unlocking her pho
Andrew’s Point of ViewAndrew stared at the yellow cab as it drove away in the distance. Lost in thought, Andrew barely noticed when his friend Anthony tapped him on the shoulder. Startled, he turned to face him, his eyes still fixed on the spot where the cab had disappeared into the busy city streets.“Come on man,” Anthony said with a smile. “The night is still young.”Reluctantly, Andrew tore his gaze away from the street and followed Anthony back into the club. The loud and flashing lights seem to mock his sorrowful mood. As the night progressed and Anthony was dancing and drinking, Andrew couldn't stop thinking about Kathrine. The only thing keeping him at ease was the fact that he was going to see her again. Sooner than he would have thought.Andrew wasn’t in the mood to continue sitting at his club. He flung himself out of his seat and walked over to Anthony. “Hey, man. Are you going to be alright going home by yourself?” He asked calmly.“Yeah, I’m good. I’ll just call a cab o
Kathrine’s Point of ViewKathrine and Dylan sat side by side in the backseat of the cab, they sat close to each other. But their minds were filled with their own thoughts. The city lights flickered through the window, moving through the busy streets, on their way to Kathrine’s apartment.The weight of the day laid heavy on Kathrine’s shoulders. She leaned her head against Dylan’s shoulder, seeking a resting place. A soft sigh escaped Kathrine’s lips.“This day was just too long, to describe,” Kathrine said with a soft tone.“You can say that again. But hey look on the bright side, you’re not going to be homeless.” Dylan said with a smile.“Yeah, that is correct. I was worried that he was only doing that to get me to sleep with him. But I see I might have judged him too soon.” Kathrine replied, then sat up straight.“By the way, how are you holding up? Are you feeling a bit better?” Dylan asked with concern.“Actually, I am. Thank you, I needed this. I needed to get out and live my lif
Dylan’s Point of ViewDylan watched intently as Kathrine stepped out of the cab. Dylan nodded at the middle-aged man with a friendly face, the driver nodded with a knowing glint in his eyes. The driver placed the car in drive and weaved in with the other cars on the road.She had always been a mysterious woman.As the car was moving Dylan searched through her bag and pulled out her phone. With a quick glance around the cab, ensuring there weren’t any recording devices, she dialed a number and brought the phone closer to her ear.The silence in the car made the ringing of her phone echo through the cab. She kept her voice low, “Hey, it’s me. Our plan is in motion, everything is going according to schedule.” Dylan said just as the person on the other side picked up.“Excellent news. No one suspects a thing?” The voice on the phone asked.“No. Not even Andrew. He is oblivious of everything.” She said with an evil smile on her face.“Good. Remember to keep it that way.” The voice said.“O
Andrew’s Point of ViewAndrew groggily stumbled out of his house, his head pounding from the previous night. He needed to go to the club to meet Kathrine for her first day working for him. With blurry vision, he called for Alfred. Alfred had been working for his family for years, and Alfred had never hesitated to lend a helping hand. Andrew had left his car at the club the night before, he didn’t want to drive with another car.“Alfred!” Andrew shouted; his voice echoed through the air.Alfred walked up behind him, “Good morning, Sir. Trust, you slept well.” He asked with his hand folded behind his back.“Not per say. But I please need you to drive me to the club.” Andrew said while rubbing his head.“Where’s your car, Sir?” Alfred asked with a confused look.“I left it at the club last night. I didn’t want to impose on your sleep, so I took a cab.” Andrew said with a fake smile on his face. Andrew knew Alfred would be pissed that he didn’t call him.“Sir, you know I will always put m
Andrew’s Point of ViewAs the deafening sound of the explosion echoed through the air, causing chaos to erupt on the street. People started to scatter in every direction, desperately seeking safety. As the bouncers rushed to Andrew’s side, Andrew’s focus remained solely on Kathrine.His arms wrapped around her, the veins on his arms stood out. He felt Kathrine’s heartbeat pounding against him. Pulling away he immediately started scanning her, making sure that she didn’t get hurt. He sighed with relief. Andrew’s eyes locked with Kathrine’s.Andrew could feel the heat of the flames burning through his clothes. The smell of smoke filled his nostrils, but his priority was ensuring her safety.“Are you okay?” Andrew asked with no hesitation.“Ye…” Kathrine stuttered while looking around. “Yeah. I’m okay.” She said scared.“Come on, let’s get away from the fire.” Andrew ordered Kathrine and she gladly followed.He pulled her away from the fire, making sure that the heat was no longer linger
