I sat through my dad’s meeting half paying attention to everything that was going on. My mind kept going back to what Carmen and Kelly had told me. And it tugged at my imagination like the strings on a puppet. I was convinced that they hadn’t been lying to me about what they’d said, but I couldn’t help but wonder what it was that they had been talking about.

What the hell has to be so secret about a club?

Carmen’s words kept coming back to me: ‘Wear something that’s easy to get out of’. Why would she say that unless there was a chance that I was going to get to undressed? Was this some kind of club where you had to strip to get in? I’d heard of clubs like that, but for three high-class girls like us to be seen in a place like that was somewhere between finding a snowball in a supernova and finding a snowball in hell.

I just couldn’t make sense of it.

My dad’s meeting went on longer than I had thought it would and it felt like my body was on automatic pilot the whole time. I gave an interested nod when I thought it was appropriate. One of the investors was Italian and I was able to loosely understand some of what he said and interpreted it for my dad. I mechanically turned pages in my notepad to take notes about things that I wasn’t even paying attention to.

I couldn’t stop thinking about tonight and what it meant. And by the time the meeting with the investors was done it felt like hours had gone by but a quick look at the clock on the wall told me we’d only been sitting there for an hour at most. And the men that had come – I didn’t even really notice how many or how few there were – were now gone. Dad and I were alone and apparently the meeting had reached a successful conclusion judging from my dad’s exultant smile.

I was surprised to see that, but even more surprised when my dad came up and hugged me afterwards. Not just one of those ‘thanks for being here’ kind of hugs, but a real hug. Like the kind you give someone when you haven’t seen them in years and are ecstatic to see them again.

“Thank you, Denise,” dad said as he half-squeezed the life out of me.

“Uh… you’re welcome,” I said as soon as he released me.

He looked at me fondly; like he was proud of all the money he’d spent sending me to business school. I think he was actually close to tears. “Without you… I would have come away with half of what they offered.” He put a doting hand on my cheek. “I’m so proud of you.”

Of course… that’s the important thing.

I managed to sneak a look at my notepad before I closed it up. A single figure jumped out at me and I almost felt myself falter at the sight of it.
