Part IV: You're my Date?

God where did I put that shoe!

It was 4:30 PM and Jessie was still in her scrub suit. She hurriedly took a run to her office to dress up. She locked that door and took a few seconds to change.

Great! Now I look like I just had the worse day of my life…

She shook her head and tried to be presentable as much as possible.

This won't get any better. I have to leave now.

As she headed out the door she saw Grace.

"Hey Jess, going home?"

"Uh no… I'm meeting someone for coffee."

"Ok… Bring him home ok?" Grace winked.

"Right… Bye Grace." Jessie waved goodbye and then was of to meet KS.

----

"Wow Katie, You look… Great… Trying to get into Ms. Sammler's pants right away?" Sarah chuckled.

As usual, Katie was speechless, but never forgot to show the universal fuck-you sign to Sarah's utter amusement.

Russell came in and gave Sarah a kiss on the cheeks.

"Hey Katie, who are you seducing?" Russell asked.

Katie just shook her head.

"Why is it that whenever I go out you either tell me I look good for seducing or having sex? Have I no other intention whenever I go out on a date?"

Russell and Sarah looked at each other for a while. Then they laughed.

"NO!" They said in unison.

"Fine! Fine!" Katie sighed in defeat as she brushed her hair.

"Please try not to wreck anything in condo will you? And if you plan on making out… Please don't use my bed…" Katie said with intent to kill her peers in case they disobey.

Hugging each other, Russell and Sarah couldn't help but laugh.

"What makes you say we're would make out Katie? We're both gay…" Sarah giggled slightly pushing Russell away.

"Well you have Russell who's gay, which means he's the girl. And we have you who's gay, which means you're the guy. Therefore in my head you're opposites. Have fun kids." Katie smirked as she open the door.

Russell and Sarah jumped away from each other. They felt awkward now.

"Oh come on guys. I was just kidding. I have to go. Don't wait up for me." Katie smiled then left.

----

"I'm late! I'm late!" Jessie whispered as she walked.

"TAXI!" Jessie yelled.

One taxi stopped but a guy caught up before she could and took the taxi.

"JERK!" Jessie fumed.

How bad can my day get?

Jessie sighed.

Well maybe KS won't be that bad. He won't be like any other guy. He would be nice, sweet… Perfect…

"Shit!"

Jessie waved her hand again to get a hold of a taxi.

"TAXI!"

----

Katie arrived at the Farafena coffee house at about 4:30 PM. She always went there. So much the manager reserved a side of the coffee house just for her.

"Ms. Singer. Good to have you back. I take it you'll want another iced latte?" The manager greeted as he lead Katie to her seat.

"Yes please. And kindly tell your security guard that someone might want to ask for KS, just lead her here." Katie smiled plopping to the seat.

"Yes Ms. Singer." The manager nodded and left Katie.

Stretching her hands Katie stared at the coffee shop window.

New York… Nothing ever changes. Maybe I should move to Boston soon. Or maybe Chicago. Well if Mom would approve.

Just then she saw someone come out of a taxi. She was wearing a white dress. A long haired blonde with bright blue eyes. Somehow they caught each others eyes but the girl turned away. She seemed to be in a hurry.

Whoa… She's hot.

The girl dropped her pen and bent to get it. She then took her mobile phone and seemed to read something.

Can't wait to get under that skirt.

Unconsciously, Katie licked her lips. Then felt her phone vibrate.

"Damn it! What now?" Katie whispered to herself.

Looking at her phone it was a message from Jessica Sammler.

"I'm here. What do I do?"

Katie replied.

"Just ask the guard where KS is."

Katie sat up straight and tried not to look nervous.

Then a figure appeared in front of her.

"KS?" the person asked.

"Yes." Katie stood up then turned to look at the person.

Wow. She's Jessica Sammler?

"There must be a mistake…" Jessie started to turn her back from Katie but Katie held her shoulder.

"No. This is not a mistake. I'm KS. Katie Singer." Katie extended her hand.

"I'm sorry. I thought I was meeting a guy for a date." Jessie tried to be sincerely apologetic.

"Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you but I'm the one who put up that ad."

"I'm sorry. I'll get going now. Nice meeting you." Jessie turned again only to be held still by Katie.

"Hey you don't have to go. I mean you're here. We could have dinner and just talk you know. Just talk." Katie said sincerely.

There's no way I'm going to let you dump me Jessica Sammler. Nobody and I mean nobody dumps Katie Singer. Especially on a first date!

"No. I have to go. I have to do stuff anyway. Nice meeting you though." Jessie hurriedly turned and walked out of the coffee shop.

Katie, who wasn't willing to give up yet, followed.

"Jessica!" Katie yelled.

Jessie was a bit far away.

Jessie walked faster when she heard the voice. She didn't notice a guy in front of her. The guy suddenly took her bag then ran.

"MUGGER!" Jessie yelled.

The mugger ran and would constantly look at Jessie who was running after him.

Katie saw the mugger. And started to slowly walk towards his direction. The mugger was running towards where Katie was. He made the mistake of looking back at Jessie again. Because when he turned to see the road in front of him he was met by Katie's fist.

POW!

The mugger fell flat on his back He didn't really have an idea what hit him. Well not until Katie hovered above him and began to choke him to death.

"Don't you guys have better job opportunities to take instead of being a public nuisance?"

"We'll take it from here miss." The policeman was beside Katie patting her back slightly.

"Be happy the policeman is here. I would be too happy to choke the life out of you." Katie angrily stood up and picked up Jessie's belongings.

Jessie shyly smiled at Katie.

"Here you go Jessica. Try not to lose them next time." Katie smiled and handed Jessie's bag.

"Thank you. You can call me Jess…" Jessie looked up at Katie.

Are those eyes for real? They're so green…

"Um… Well… Don't I get to have dinner with the damsel I saved from distress?" Katie joked and smiled at Jessie.

Jessie smiled back and thought for a second.

She earned it… I don't mind having dinner with her I guess. I mean I have dinner with Grace.

Jessie looked up to Katie and answered.

"Sure… But you have to take me to the best restaurant you know." Jessie smirked.

"Only the Best Ms. Sammler. Only the best." Katie grinned.
