It was a warm summers night. The scent of lavender hung in the air, as it was the lady's favourite. The house was an old Victorian, white washed along all sides. The lady had everything that she wanted but she wasn't happy. Anything that she wanted to buy she did, but u cannot buy love, as it is a feeling of the heart, not the wallet. She had numerous lovers but she felt that she didn't connect with any of them in a romantic way. She had only been in love once before and he had left her 3 years ago. Not a day had passed when she didn't think of him and how he had made her feel. She should've realized that I wasn't going to last but she was so young, careless and stupid.

Her neighbours and the other people in the small town called her snobby and thought very little of her as she was a promiscuous lady and had many gentlemen callers. She had hoped to find love or even lust in one of these men but had failed considerably and after that long her heart had turned to a cold, black stone. That is until one day when a man came to fix the window. As her worked she just sat near him talking, watching she did everything with perfection. After, she thanked him greatly and offered a generous tip but he politely declined saying that he couldn't accept more than the agreed amount.

Three days later she purposely broke another window, as she was enthralled with the man and his way of doing things that she just had to see him again. She called the same company and asked them to send a person over hoping beyond hope that it was the man. She put on a large amount of channel No. 5 and dressed nice but casual. The maid came with the news that the window repairman was here. She got out the chair so quickly that it fell back and she got very embarrassed. She had one last glace in the mirror to make sure she looked nice and went to the entrance room. She opened the door expecting to find the man that she like so very much but instead found another man, if you could call that a man. He had very bad odor, gruff mustache and pants that didn't properly fit him.

She asked where the man that had last come to fix her window and the lesser man said he was away for a week in the snowy mountains with his wife. Straight away she retired to her room and just lay there for almost an hour thinking about what just happened. As soon as she had calmed down she dialed the window company and asked the name of the man that she had liked so much, adorable she thought as the operator told her his name. As soon as she got off the phone she got the maid to look up the phone directory for this man and luckily there was only one found.

For the next 3 days she just waited, many of her gentlemen came but quickly left after talking to her. On the third day she went to the man's house and found him just pulling up into the driveway. She decided to wait and set one of her maids to wait and watch the house to see if the wife ever left the house. For the next 2 days the maid waited and watched, then finally the wife left. So she got back to the mansion and told the lady. The lady then went to a man across the street that she knew and asked if she could pay the man to let one of her maids live in the house for a couple of weeks. Se didn't tell him her true intentions, as he was one of the few people that didn't think badly of her. So he agreed and moved up to one of the lady's country cottages for a couple of weeks.
