I do not own anything from DWP I just borrowed the characters for inspiration.
Short but insightful.
The next Tuesday Alexandra surprised Miranda in her office. John knew this was a big mistake. No one saw Miranda without an appointment.
Miranda walked off the elevator without a single command. When she reached her office door she stopped. John almost ran into her. She turned and glared.
She walked into the office, and sat in her chair. "Alexandra."
The girl was beaming sitting across from her. "I found the place I want to live and I want you to be the first to see it!"
Miranda stared thinking. "I have created another hyper exuberant person."
Miranda nodded. "John, clear me some time tomorrow to accompany Alexandra to her new home."
Alexandra Jumped up. "Thank you Miranda." Miranda nodded.
Wednesday at one Alexandra was climbing into the Town Car with Miranda. Roy looked at Miranda and said, "I hope you are ready for this."
Miranda stopped pulled down her sunglasses and glared at Roy. He just smiled and motioned for her to get in. As they drove Miranda watched out the window. "Just where are you taking me?"
Alexandra grinned. "Wait until you see it."
Soon the car pulled to a stop. Miranda looked out the window. Alexandra waited.
"What is this?" Miranda frowned.
"It used to be an old warehouse. Come on." Alexandra jumped out of the car.
Roy was waiting on Miranda's side with the door open. As Miranda exited Roy just stood there grinning.
"Is it safe around here?" Miranda murmured. Roy just grinned.
"I know it looks … well … weird on the outside, but that is because they have just started renovations." Alexandra's eyes were pleading.
Miranda smiled. "Well, show me to it." Alexandra almost ran to the front door. She stood waiting holding the door for Miranda. The elevator door opened into Alexandra's loft.
Once Miranda was off and inside Alexandra started excitedly explaining to Miranda what she had planned for the place. Upstairs was the small bedroom, bath, and tiny living space. Down below was a huge open area with a kitchen of to the right side. In the kitchen was a small space to eat. Alexandra twirled in the huge open space. "I want to put my sketching table right in the middle. That way I can have manikins, smaller tables for material, and storage shelves on that wall."
She turned and looked at Miranda. Miranda slid her sunglasses off and looked around. Alexandra had been right the inside was very nice although tiny. "Are you sure it is big enough for you to work in?" Miranda looked at the girl.
"Are you kidding Miranda this is like twenty times bigger than I am use to." Alexandra stretched out her hands and twirled around.
Miranda smiled, "Very nice."
Alexandra jumped up, ran to Miranda and gave her a tight hug. Miranda was shocked. "Uhm … yes … well … we should be getting back to Runway." Miranda put her sunglasses back on and turned. Alexandra was ecstatic. She was so glad Miranda had approved of the loft.
Back at Runway Miranda told John to get Nigel.
Nigel walked into the Dragon's lair. Miranda turned and glared at him then turned to the window. "She hugged me. Nigel the girl just hugged me."
Nigel was grinning. "So I heard." Miranda whipped around ready to breathe fire. "That was the first thing she told me after saying you loved her loft." Miranda started pacing. "What's wrong Miranda afraid your minions will find out the Ice Queen has melted?"
"Not funny Nigel."
"Miranda calm down she is not going to go around telling everyone that she hugged you."
"She told you."
Nigel nodded. "I will have a talk with her."
Miranda nodded, "that's all. Corinne where is my coffee?"
