Chapter 1
It was the little things that she noticed at first.
While her administrator eye had been honed over the years to eagle sharpness and made her immune and unfazed to mostly anything, feelings of shock and surprise still cascaded into her system.
"Marry me." That was all that the note said, clipped to a single-stem sunflower.
The bright yellow of the blossom looked out of place amid the clutter of her desk, and the dark wood of her office.
She looked around her office, trying to see if anything was out of place or missing. Picking up the flower, she fingered the note, rubbing her fingers over the handwriting, which she couldn't decipher.
"Who wrote this?" she asked aloud. The block handwriting was unfamiliar too her. But then again, with over 200 people working under her, she couldn't really expect to recognize everyone's handwriting.
Looking more closely at the slip of paper, she noticed an ink blot at the bottom, as if the writer wanted to write something more but changed his mind at the last minute.
Smiling to herself, Lisa decided to just keep the sunflower in a vase for now, a reminder of how life can still manage to surprise her. Perhaps she isn't that jaded yet, after all.
