Chapter 6: Friday Morning

Rei sighed as she stepped into her apartment, flipping on the light in her living room and trying to figure out how the hell Bethany had managed to convince her to go shopping for wedding dresses.

It was one thing to help Justin make plans, it was another to hang out with his future wife like they were the very best of friends. Rei wondered if there was any way that she could get out of it, but figured that Bethany would come looking for her if she didn’t have someone to tell her how lovely she looked in everything she tried on.

The only upside was that she’d managed to swing by the office that morning before coming home. Now her arms were full of the paperwork implicating Stanly for embezzlement and spent most of the day going through it all and highlighting the pertinent points, faxing her findings to Detective Warren.

It was with bleary eyed surprise that she looked at her desk clock only to realize that it she was supposed to be meeting Bethany in half an hour. The woman had called her a few hours ago to let her know what time to meet her at Antonio’s. Apparently Bethany wanted lunch before they left to meet the dressmaker. Antonio’s was more expensive than Rei was used to and she was both pleased at the thought of eating there and apprehensive about spending the money that a decent meal would cost.

This was why she didn’t like hanging out with people who were used to spending money. Their version of a good time was often above her pay grade and there usually came the awkward moment in which Rei had to explain that she couldn’t afford eating out and shopping and etc. on a regular basis.

Rei didn’t think that Bethany would accept such an explanation. She seemed like the kind of person who expected the women around her to keep up with whatever whim struck her fancy whether it involved money or not. Rei was going to have to ask Justin for a raise if Bethany was going to make a habit of dragging her places.

She pulled up outside of Antonio’s fifteen minutes late. She hurried into the intimate bistro and glanced around nervously. Trying to juggle her purse and straighten her clothes all at the same time occupied the nervous fidget in her fingers as she walked through the restaurant in search of Bethany. A flash of sapphire blue caught her eye and Rei looked past the occupied tables to see the future Mrs. Reese waving enthusiastically in her direction, floppy blue sun hat like a neon sign.

Rei walked briskly towards her, surreptitiously trying to check her reflection’s appearance in the windows. Her image was a little blurry, but she saw enough to know that she looked presentable enough. She sent Bethany a smile of apology as she pulled up a seat.

“Sorry I’m late.” She said with a sigh, tossing her purse in the chair beside her.
