Since receiving the advanced check from the publishing company and the pending deal with Shaolin Studios, she decided to throw herself a party and invite her friends.  With Kit’s permission she was able to book the café for the evening, as long as it wasn’t a club night, Kit didn’t care.  She asked Lara to prepare the food; Red would have been there had he not been picked up by the police that morning.  It turned out that he had been a part of a drug trafficking ring and the cops had him under surveillance for quite some time.  They got tired of waiting for him to slip, so they quietly came through the back and took him away.  Shane heard about the arrest and finally remembered where she had seen the man.

“He’s Jaffe’s dealer” she declared a little too late as Kit glared at her

“Man your timing sucks” Kit shook her head and walked away

“I met him once at a party” she mumbled to herself “I’m sorry!” she yelled after Kit’s retreating form

Dana and Alice arrived a few minutes later.  Lara couldn’t pick her up from home because she was working the party.  Dana went to the kitchen to see Lara while Alice went to look for Shane then walked over when she spotted her.

“Hey” Shane saw her and greeted

“Hey” Alice looked at the ‘Farewell Jenny’ banner posted on the wall “Only Jenny would throw her own send off party”

“Where’s Dane?” Shane asked looking for her

“She’s in the kitchen with Lara” Alice told her looking at the spread that was building up on the table “Everything looks great.  How many people did Jenny invite?”

“She told me it was just us” Shane agreed looking at the massive amounts of food just as Dana joined them

“Did you guys hear about Red?” Dana looked at them

“Yeah” Shane answered in a low voice while a confused Alice looked at them waiting for one of them to explain “Red got arrested this morning”

“Lara thinks he was involved in some kind of drug trafficking thing” Dana said eating a celery stick

“What!” Alice exclaimed
