Just an act of fate

Fiona Tawny!?

My god! My boss’ daughter! Wow! Just my luck! Maybe if I’m nice to her she might tell her dad and get me promoted. She was playing this piano. It made such a lovely sound. She closed her eyes. People can’t hear this? Why not?

“Fate?” I asked, she continued.

“Fiona?” I said her proper name.

Yet she continued to play. I stood up obviously she didn’t want me here. I guess I’ll do some hard work to get on the general’s good side. I stood up and walked away.

“Don’t go,” she said but she continued to play with her eyes closed.

I looked at her. She stopped and turned around. I looked into her eyes. They were emerald green. She checked her watch.

“Oh! I have to go!” she said. She walked up to me, and then passed me. I grabbed her arm.

“Meet me hear at nine o’clock tonight,” I said to her.

She nodded and ran off. She obviously needed to be somewhere. I saw her jump over the wall. I stood on my own.

I brushed my blond hair out of my eyes but as usual they flowed back in my eyes.

Fate Tawny! Who would have guessed!? What do I say to her later?

I walked over to the house and walked inside.
