Chapter 11 Realizations

Lory was anxious for his granddaughter to get back. He desperately wanted to know how the play date turned out. Maria walked into his office at about seven o'clock completely depressed. She didn't say a word to him and just laid down on the couch. Lory moved over to her and sat next to her. He placed a hand on her head for comfort as the tears started to flow. As a preacher of love he didn't need to ask what was wrong.

When Ren dropped Kyoko off she absent mindedly walked into the restaurant. The old couple were shocked at what she was wearing combined with her sluggish movements. The few customers who were still there were dazed by her beauty. Without noticing anyone she walked upstairs into her bedroom. With the little energy she had left she laid down on her bed. In her mind a flashback played of Ren kissing her. Why would he kiss me? The thought kept playing itself over and over again in her head. She sat up and looked around her room hoping to find the answer there. Her eyes fell on the script for The Heist. After a few staring at it for a couple of seconds her eyes lit up. That's why!

Back at his apartment Ren poured himself a drink. He didn't know how to face Kyoko. He couldn't brush the kiss off this time as something he did with his coworkers because he had lingered over her lips intoxicated by her. Tomorrow at the set she would probably run scared from him and would even ask the director for permission to drop out. What have I done?
