Chapter Six
 
               Cassie walked through the park to where Ashley had told her to wait.  
Sitting down on the nearest bench, she kept a watchful eye for her secret admirer. 
 With nervousness creeping up on her, she didn't notice Andros standing behind her.  
As he laid a hand upon her shoulder, Cassie jumped, turning quickly to see Andros 
smiling back at her.
               "Hi Cassie," he said politely.
               "Andros, what are you doing here?" she asked, surprise filling 
her voice.
Still glancing around, she did not want to miss her chance to meet the one 
she was waiting for.
               "How are you?" he asked pleasantly.
               "Look Andros, I'd love to shoot the breeze, but I am waiting for someone," 
she stated bluntly.  "So if you wouldn't mind..." she said, motioning him along.
               "You are waiting for me," he replied, sitting down beside her.
               "I am really not in the mood for this," she retorted, wishing he 
would just go away.
               "I wrote the letters," Andros offered, seeing her hesitancy in
believing him.
               "Huh?" she muttered, her attention drawn to what he was saying.
               "The letters Ashley gave you, I wrote them," he stated a pleased 
smile upon his lips.
               "You?" she asked in shock.  He was the last one she would have 
ever thought of.

               When the class ended, Sue watched the students begin to file out.  
Feeling as though she would miss the chance to know if he was the one to write 
he letter, she called out to Ashley's father.
               "Robert, do you have a second?" she asked, casually glancing 
at the book in front of her.
               "Sure Sue, what is it?" he replied politely, coming back to stand 
in front of her desk.
               "I was just wondering if you would like to go for a cup of coffee?  
Talk about the course, among other things." she said.
               "Sure Sue, why not?  I don't think my wife will mind," he replied, 
a grin on his face.
               "Good," she replied, smiling wider.  Picking up her things, she walked 
out to the parking garage with him, all the while not knowing that her husband
 was watching her from a distance.
               "Hammond, I'm gonna kill him." Rick muttered, the anger seeping
 through his blood at the sight of his wife with another man.
