    "Isn't that your secretary, Neil?" DD pointed to a car parked by the road.

    Neil swerved to the side of the road and parked the car. "Yes, I called him." he tossed the keys over to Ali. "There something I need to get back home to do."

    "Come on since we are all here, I wanted us to get some drink, and you are the one that always want us to do things together." DD patted himself searching his pocket. "Once I find my wallet."

    Neil rushed into his study and immediately his sight fell on Avni curled up like a cat on the chair. He moved closer and let out a loud cough but she didn't stir or move a muscle, a failed attempt to get her attention and wake up from her slumber.

    "How can she fall asleep in another person house?" He lowered himself on one knee and examined the sleeping girl.

    She held herself tight with her hands wrapped around her, her face was tensed with each muscle tightened and her brow furrowed. Most people would look peaceful when sleeping, onething was sure, and Avni was not. Could she be having a nightmare?

    Neil stroked her hair with such gentleness he had never displayed. Soon after the linesand toil had smoothed, virtually disappeared and all the muscles in her face and body were replaced.

    Her eyes flickered open, the blurry sight of Neil staring hard at her became clearer. She jerked. "You are back."

    "To find you snoring and drooling all over my chair." he dusted the chair. "Do you how much this couch cost?"

    She rolled her eyes and took notice of the time, quickly got to her feet and rushed towards the door only to be held back by Neil.

    "And where are you running off to?"

    "Home of course. Am I going to sleep here?"

    "You didn't have a problem with that before. Let me drop you off."

   "So I can be in debt to you again? No thanks." she broke herself free from his grip and headed out the door.

    He looked down to the food she prepared earlier still untouched. He took off the cover, open up the food, and took in a mouthful. She was a good cook, no matter how much he denied it, his taste bud couldn't. Suddenly he wanted to eat more foods made by her.
