SOUL MATES?

Part 1

Find out about your soul mate with 10 easy questions! The advertisement practically screamed from the top of the webpage. Natalie slowly shook her head as she quickly bypassed the banner ad. With the kind of luck she had when it came to relationships, she'd either end up wit the complete opposite or with Ben again. A smile played about her lips as she thought about her ex-husband.

Benjamin James Hollingsworth, junior partner in the prestigious New York City law firm of Chastain, Lowe, Benedict and Hollingsworth. He'd been her first lover in college and there was time she'd loved him deeply. But they soon discovered that being on the fast track in their respective careers was constantly taken them in different directions. Finally the decision was made to call it quits with the marriage and divorce amicably. So now every Christmas she received a card with the latest photo of his picture perfect family.

Pulling her attention back to the present, Natalie returned to her emails and opened up one from her best friend Trista.

Nat, Want two tickets to the Classique Evening at the Symphony Hall? Jake had to go out of town that night so I'm just doing a girl's nite out with Meghan. I'm sure you'll find someone to share the extra with. TTYL Trist.

Natalie quickly hit reply and typed, Of courseI'll take them. Just let me know what I owe you. Nat. PS Give Meghan a hug and a kiss from me. Hitting the send button, she sat back in her seat. The evening was to be a fundraiser for a local charity and had sold out before she'd gotten a chance to even to purchase a ticket. There was no way she was going to pass up a chance for free tickets. The only question was who would she give her extra ticket to?. Maybe Miles since his social life was even more non existent than hers. Or would it be Stephen since he could probably use a night off as much as the rest of the team.?
