It took Tina less than ten minutes before she exited the ladies room. She glanced at her watch again; it was exactly eight in the evening. By this time she thought, Jane should already be at their table. She opted to just wait but she didn’t want Jane to see her first for the blonde wanted to be the first one to see her soon to be lover in that way she would know if the woman fit the bill. If the woman turned out to be someone she thought she didn’t like then she wouldn’t have a problem leaving the bar.

The rooftop lounge was very cozy, the light was just right, not too bright or too dim, the jazz music was smooth on the ears and as she walked towards her table, she noticed a woman sitting whose head was turned to the side looking at the beautiful city lights.

Even though Tina couldn’t see her face yet, from her vantage point, she could clearly see what the woman was wearing and even though the woman was sitting, she could tell that the woman had a great figure as well but what really grabbed her attention was the woman’s striking caramel skin. Her heart drummed against her chest and automatically stopped in her tracks when the woman turned…

 It was the same pretty waitress the she saw at Da Marco!

Bette was busy staring at the beautiful scenery before her. She was never into nightlife that’s why she always hated working the graveyard shift and even just going out and having drinks with few friends or co-workers. She would rather stay at home and be with her daughter. It just didn’t appeal to her but going to this place, she thought it was beautiful and romantic.

Then for some odd reason she felt someone looking at her, she instinctively look at the direction where she thought the piercing eyes were coming from and noticed a blonde woman walking towards her. Bette met those hazel eyes and she thought she looked familiar yet she couldn’t remember where she had seen her.

Her eyes grew wide when the blonde smiled, for it was the woman Peggy Peabody, her former employer was having lunch with at Da Marco a few months ago.
