A Voice From the Past
"Catie please…" Jamie Waite's voice crept slowly
into her thoughts.
Catie closed her eyes is hopes of shaking the memory
from her mind. 'Will you pay attention?!' her subconscious seemed to scream
at her. 'You have to get some work done!'
With that she forced her eyes open and tried in
vain to concentrate on the sketches sprawled out in front of her.
"Catie," her boss said sticking her head in her
office door, "go home hon it's getting late." Catie glanced at the small
clock on the wall. 7:30. Time had sure flown past. Remembering that she
was in charge of supper that night, she shuffled her way out of the office.
'Well hope he doesn't starve' she thought, chuckling as she made her way
to the car.

She pulled skillfully into the parking garage just
across from her apartment building and shifted into park. Just as she was
about to turn he ignition off, the DJ on the radio caught her attention:
"And here's a new one for your drive home from a promising
up-and-comer. I promise that this isn't the last you'll hear from this
guy. So here you are folks. This is "If you only knew" by---"
With that Catie cut the engine. "This is LA guy. Everyone
here is a 'promising up-and-comer' " She remarked grabbing the bags of
fast food that occupied the passenger seat.
She made her way up the two flights of stairs and with
the turn of a key was in the door of her apartment.
"Hey handsome I'm home!" She called out removing her
coat.
"Please tell me that you brought the…" A tall shaggy
blond head peaked around the corner. "FOOD!!"
"Oh and hello to you too!" she remarked playfully.
"Sorry," he leaned over and gave her a quick peck on
the cheek. And with that he was headed back into the other room, full plate
in hand.
That's all I have time for now I promise the others will
be longer. If anyone out there is intrigued and want me to continue just
tell me cause I can't tell it it's making any sense at this point!! Thanx
much!!
