Case File Name:
Rose-Colored Glasses.
♠Chapter Sixty-One♠
Christmas in Miami is exactly how you would expect it to be.
Palm trees wrapped in lights, fake snow, and the mildly warm weather.
The Christmas season had technically begun the day after Thanksgiving—how they adapted overnight was beyond me.
I just knew I was tired of the annoying Christmas music that they blasted in every store I entered.
And I still have two fucking weeks to go until Christmas day.
A time that's supposed to be about being jolly—but that feels kind of hard when all your day consists of is work.
Aside from going to lunch or the club with Marie.
And since it's been a little over two weeks since I last laid eyes on Tazmin, I recently decided to check out some clubs outside of Miami for any potential hook-ups.
I also didn't want to run the risk of running into Tazmin halfway through buying a random woman's drink.
Which occurred twice.
I slept with two people with hopes of getting back to my normal self.
But normal felt impossible when I had to fake an orgasm during the first hookup.
The second one after that was just experimental.
And yet again, I had to fucking fake it.
But both of them were decent—I just don't think I was in the right mindset yet.
Which was beyond irritating.
I wanted to be in that mindset—I wanted to be me again.
The Lena who did threesomes or messed with two best friends at the same time.
I need that side of me back.
"Oh, Chanel?" I said, eyeing the shopping bag in Marie's hand as she walked happily into my office.
My best friend's smile grew as she approached me, "I thought of you when I was there—we'll call it an early Christmas gift," she suggested, setting the matte black Chanel shopping bag on my desk.
"Look at you thinking of me," I joked with a light smile, grabbing the bag to open it.
"I just knew you needed these," Marie said as her attention remained entirely on me, watching as I slid the small box from the bag.
And as soon as I opened the box—there sat the Chanel sunglasses case.
Where a pair of dramatic black sunglasses remained inside.
Which were exactly my style.
"I fucking love these," I said, smiling as I immediately slid them onto my face, "It's giving rich auntie," I joked with my best friend whose smile grew.
