said, grabbing an armful for herself.  Now we can have a fashion show, she added with delight.
The two women went to the changing rooms and modeled every outfit for each other, both of them
oohing and aahing at the other s clothes.
 You absolutely have to get the green, blue, and silver outfits. Those were my favorites, Amy said as
they came back out.
 I don t know&  Cassie hedged. She hadn t dared look at the price tags. She really did love the feel
of the fabrics, but the skirts were a bit shorter than she normally wore and they were a lot more fitted.
She knew she could stand to lose five pounds, but she felt slim and attractive in the perfectly cut
clothes.
 Oh, please, you look so incredible in them, Amy told her.
 Alright, you ve talked me into it, Cassie caved. She hadn t bought herself new clothes in a long
time and she deserved it. She d charge them to her credit card and pray she got hired immediately
after the amazing article she was going to put her heart and soul into.
If she didn t get a job at the paper right away, she could always find something else until she got
hired. It was better to have the right kind of clothes when she went for interviews, she justified to
herself.
They went to the register and Cassie was thrilled with the total cost. Amy hadn t been kidding when
she said she got an amazing discount. She wanted to turn around and add about twenty more items to
her pile. As if Amy could read her mind, she giggled.
 I told you I get a great price. We ll have to do more shopping after you land your dream job.
Seriously, all you have to do is call me and I ll be there. As you can see I love to shop, and it s even
better having someone to go with. I think this is the start of a wonderful friendship, Amy said and
surprised Cassie by giving her a hug.
 I m starving after all this walking. Why don t we grab a bite to eat before we head back to the
offices? I think Lucas will be done by then. He s taking me on a romantic drive to the coast tonight. I
can hardly wait, Amy said, once again dragging Cassie away.
They passed by a mother who had her hands full. She had a crying baby and a toddler, who was trying
with all his might, to escape her. She looked frazzled and Cassie wanted to stop and help. The sight of
the precious little one made her heart swell. She d given up on the idea of having children a couple
years ago. You had to be in a secure relationship and she just didn t see that happening anytime soon.
She didn t have time to meet the right kind of guys, and she didn t want to find her future husband in a
bar. Most men there only wanted a woman for the night. She felt doomed to eternal singleness.
The girls ate their meal and finally made it back to the offices. Amy promised to call, before rushing
off to Lucas s floor. It was in the building beside Max s. There was a skywalk connecting the
buildings, so the girls had ridden to the floor together before Amy walked across to meet Lucas.
Cassie wanted to see the spectacular view of the city sometime from the skywalk, with its floor to
ceiling windows all along it. She knew the view at night would be glorious.
Some people didn t like the hustle and bustle of a large city, but the longer she was in Seattle, the
more she fell in love. There were quaint little coffee shops, beautiful scenery, plenty of shopping, and
parks, and if you did want some peace and quiet it wasn t far away. She still hadn t gone on a ferry
boat ride, which she promised herself she d do soon. She couldn t imagine ever getting bored in the
beautiful Northwest.
 You ve been gone a long time, was the first thing she heard as she stepped into Max s office.
 I ran into your cousin s wife, Amy, and we had lunch and did some shopping. We had a wonderful
time, Cassie said, before she realized she didn t need to explain herself to the man. He wasn t her
employer.
 Well, you missed out on some valuable training Cynthia was going to provide you. You aren t acting
like you want to go on this trip, he stated.
 Of course I want to go on this trip. We were shopping for cold-weather clothes, Cassie snapped. If
he was going to act this way in Alaska she may have to bury him in an avalanche of snow, she thought
with evil glee.
There was a long pause as he looked from her to the bags dangling from her fingers, then to his desk.
She was getting tired of feeling like she was being called into the principal s office.
 Did you and Amy have a nice afternoon?
She felt like she was being interrogated. Was there something wrong with her going out with Amy?
Maybe, he was a snob and thought she wasn t respectable enough to spend the afternoon with the
president of the company s spouse. She wiped that thought from her mind the second she had it. She
knew the Andersons weren t snobby people. She just couldn t figure out why he d care if she spent
time with Amy. It didn t affect him in any way. Then, it hit her that he would figure she d drilled Amy
the entire time about him.
Amy had shared some information, but nothing that would reflect on him in a negative way, she [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
