Robert Philip wandered aimlessly around his New York Apartment in search of his briefcase, he was late for a very important case that his firm was handling. If he blew this, he would just kiss his law degree goodbye. His bright and beautiful wife, Giselle, was rocking their newborn daughter Anabelle to sleep.
"Honey, have you seen my briefcase?" Robert asked.
"Oh dear, I'm afraid I haven't." Giselle sighed.
"It's all right, it's all right. I'm sure it's just laying in the kitchen..." Robert walked away from the nursery door "I hope."
As Robert was heading for the kitchen, there was a knock at the door. Robert went to answer it, when he saw a young woman with raven hair and chocolate eyes. She was dressed in a business suit and carrying two briefcases. She was quite a vision.
"Hi, are you Robert Philip?" The woman asked.
"I am." Robert nodded.
"Thank goodness, I found your briefcase in the elevator and I thought I would have to go to the police and I just HATE waiting there. Anyway, here you are." The woman handed Robert his briefcase.
"Thank you."
"Anytime. Anyway, I was kind of wondering if you could help me." The woman began, Robert nodded.
"I was looking for a job and I was wonder if you could put point me towards this location..." The woman handed Robert his own business card.
"This is my firm." Robert stated.
"Small world, isn't it?" The woman smiled.
Giselle came to the door
"Oh hello." Giselle said brightly.
"Giselle, this is..."
"Alex...Short for Alexandria." The woman introduced herself.
"Oh do forgive me, but you do seem a bit familiar." Giselle noted.
"Well, I do work at a rather large firm. Perhaps you've been present during one of my cases." Alex remarked.
"You're a lawyer?" Robert asked.
"One of the best...You see, the previous firm where I worked had to let me go under unknown circumstances." Alex stated.
"Don't worry, you're going to be fine." Robert assured.
"I hope so."
Robert kissed Giselle on the lips and then walked off with Alex, leaving Giselle behind to think about where she had seen Alex's face.
