Kurtis was feeling in his pockets and Tanya watched, dumbstruck, as he pulled out a set of keys and unlocked the door. It led to a dark corridor and Kurtis put on the light. In the corridor was a wooden table, on top of which was a small potted plant. Doors led off the corridor, two to the left and two to the right.

“Why does this person trust you with their keys?” she asked.

“Oh, she trusts me because she loves me. She told me so just now.”

“What are you...? You mean...?”

“Yes,” he said handing her the keys. “This is your place, if you like it, otherwise we'll shop around for something else.”

“Kurtis. No. I can't afford the rent here.”

“You don't have to pay rent. You own this apartment now. I bought it for you.”

“Kurtis, I cannot accept it. It's too much.”

“Well I don't know what else I'll do with it if you don't take it. I'll have the papers transferred to your name as soon as you say yes.”

He didn't give her a chance to speak but opened the door into a very large, square living room that was painted white and had light gray carpets. There were double doors leading onto a big balcony that overlooked a communal garden.

“You can decorate it any way you like. I'll let you have the number of a couple of interior decorators. But I was thinking, before you decorate, why not throw a housewarming party.”

Tanya walked around the apartment with her hands on her cheeks, eyes wide and unable to speak.

“If you don't like it, I can buy you something else.”

“Kurtis – I love it. No one has ever bought me anything like this. I don't feel worthy.”

“Don't feel worthy? You're the woman who saved my life. You're the woman I love. There isn't anything that's too expensive for you. And here.” He handed her a set of car keys.

“Kurtis, no, really.”

“You have to take this. It's the least I could do. It was because of me you no longer have a car. So now we're even and I don't want to hear another word.”

“Just two, then,” she grinned.

“And what are they?”

“Thank you.”

A week later, Kurtis took Tanya along to a music industry party. This time, when Kaya and Mae looked at her with puppy dog eyes, Tanya had no choice but to make sure they were on the guest list.

The party was in full swing. On several occasions, Kaya had to stop Mae walking up to celebrities and asking them for their autograph. She was so star struck she could hardly speak. She would make signals with her eyes every time she saw someone she recognized and say under her breath, out of the side of her mouth, “It's her!” or “It's him!”

“Just be cool,” Kaya had said to her, “or I'll get security to throw you out.”

“Having a good time?” Tanya asked her friends. She had just been talking to Jeannie and Kurtis, and felt as though she had been neglecting them.
