I rewound her machine desperately, trying my hardest to pick up a hint as to what Sam was going to say when my machine had cut him off. Realizing it was useless, I sat down and picked up the phone, trying to decide if I should call Nina and asking her advice. Finally I decided to call Nina. The phone rang at least five times before Nina picked it up. Before even saying hello, I had to burst out with all the gory details.

"Nina, thank God I got a hold of you! I don't know what to do! Sam called and he's coming to Paris and he wants to meet tonight to talk but the thing is- do I go? I mean, I was so prepared to just get on with things and I don't know what to do! Nina...help."

"Josie? Is that you?"
"Yes! Of course it's me! Who else would it be?"
"So hold on- Sam is coming to Paris? To talk to you?"
"Yeah. He wants to meet me in front of the Eiffel Tower tonight. He said that he wants to tell me something, wants to talk."
"So let me get this straight. The man you love is coming to Paris, the most romantic place in the world, to talk to you about something important, and wants to meet you in front of the most romantic place in the world and you're actually wondering if you should go? Do you really need me to answer that question for you?"
"Well...no. Thanks Nina. Hey, I gotta go. Its almost 7 here and I have to get ready if I'm really gonna do this."
"No problem Jose. I really hope it works out for you."
"So do I. I'll call you tomorrow and let you know how it all works out."

I hung up the phone and listened to Sam's message one more time, trying to figure out if what he wanted to say was what I hoped wanted to hear him say since I had met him. Deciding that there was nothing to loose, I picked up my purse, grabbed my keys, and headed out for the Eiffel Tower.
