It was spring afternoon on Tuesday, and Alex was running around the city giving out cake orders. Then, Alex headed to her second job as a dog washer at her friend's store, "Bone & Treat."

Alex was washing a small golden hair dog. Rose came in the back to help out,and said: "you need a day to find a date, as Alex giggled and put down the shampoo. "That's a good one, Rose," as she turned off the water and gave her a serious look. "Alex you need to start going out on dates then just not focus all your time on your artwork" the store's door open, openedAlex walked toward to tfirst of the store and to see a tall woman with blonde hair and carrying an expensive purse on her arm and said "I'm here pick my dog," as Alex head to the back and pick up the dog off the table and walk back to first and give the dog into the woman's arm and said "thank you and here the money, ''as she stepped out without getting her change.

Then after a tiring day of dog washing and cake orders. She headed back to her dorm after a crazy day. Alex was born to the dorm to see an art gala and walked toward a painting of a heart in a blood chain and an essential locket in the right middle of the heart.

After a few minutes of looking at the painting, a tall black-haired guy wearing a nice suit was looking at the same painting as Alex.

The same afternoon as Mark just drove down the city. Soon his phone started to ring and show his touch screen, and she aid, "hello" after a few seconds to hear, "hey, this your father's assistant," as he rolled his eyes and said,d "what does my father want from me," as the assistant was signing papers one way to other and said "yeah he does your dad wants you to have dinner today," as Mark stop at red lights and said "fine tell my father to meet at the bar downtown', as he hung up the phone.

Then, he drove around the city and soon pulled into a parking spot in front of an upscale bar that his father's assistance texted to meet. Mark entered the bar and sat down by the bar. The waiter led against the table and said, "what I can get for you," as  waiter smiled at Mark with a slight wink in one of her eyes. Mark smiled at the waiter. It was nice to say ''just a beer please", as the waiter put the placemat on the table. 

Then soon, she places a cold beer on the placemat and pops off the cap  of the beer. After the waiter left, Mark took a sip of his beer. Soon a man sat beside him  and said, 'Thanks for coming, son' he took another glass of ther and said, 'yeah, sure, dad' Mark counted, drinking his beer.

Then soon man grabbed the beer out of Mark's hand and thrown at the wall. 'Now listen to Me' Mark looked at his angry father and said, 'fine, I'm listening' as  Mr. King took a breath, 'you know that your mother and I are not on the same page.e  Mark got up from his chair and slowed away from his father back to his car.

Soon after, he walked out of the bar to grab his car's key from his jacket to unlock the vehicle to hear 'Mark, just give me a chance, listen' as he opened the car's door and closed it after he turned on the car engine just driven off from his father who stands in front of the bar.

Then after driving around the block get his mind off his father after his rage in the bar. Soon he pulls upright in front of an art gala. Mark walked through the crow of people and grabbed a glass of champagne to drink after his father broke his beer.

Then soon, a painting caught his eye, and walk toward  it to see blonde hair's woman carrying a side bag and looking at the same artwork.

Soon Alex and Mark looked away from the painting and looked at each other.
