NEW MESSAGE FROM STANLEY

Hey August. Why the sudden interest in such magician? Surprise for the love of your life, perhaps? I’ve given my friend who knows his agent your details. I’m sure they’ll be in contact soon. S x

Today is my first full day in my new apartment. It is the most luxurious place I’ve ever set foot in. I pull up outside in my car. A man, dressed all smart, takes my keys and parks my car for me. Another man in a suit then opens the door for me and they call me the elevator. Out of twenty-four floors, our apartment is the sixteenth. Coincidental isn’t it? Each apartment takes up a whole level so they’re big. You walk along a spotless hallway to your door, opening it with your key. Entering the apartment is like entering another world, filled with beautiful colours, turquoise and white mainly. To your left, behind the centre island granite block, is the kitchen. Equipped with loads of ovens, stoves and utensils. The kitchen will be disappointed when I make scrambled egg on toast. As you walk forward to the open living room you will find an eleven-seated L-shaped black sofa, positioned infront of a sixty-inch television. You’ll encounter a staircase to your left. A wonderful, winding pearl white staircase. After you encountered this staircase. There is a balcony stretching out the full length of the apartment. You go out a door before the staircase on your left, or you can walk straight through the living room to the other door. But I won’t be going out there much because I’m afraid of heights. At night I could maybe go out onto it, because at night I can’t really see what’s below me. But during the day it’s a definite no go. Walking up the wonderful, winding staircase you’ll find three bedrooms. Ethan had already called dibs on the biggest room. That’s fair since he paid for everything and, dare I say it, he will be having Eleanor over to stay. The apartment is full of furniture, but it lacks things to make it feel like home. Adding Ethan’s clock and my photo frames to the mantelpiece helped a little, but I still need to bring things over from home. Maybe now would be a good time to mention we have a gym upstairs. I only poked my head around the corner, but it has plenty of equipment in it. My bed feels like heaven, too. It’s so soft.

“Eleanor suggested we have a party here soon, so we can make some new friends.” Ethan said as we sat eating our cereal on the sofa. He was wearing the pizza tie I bought him for our fourth Christmas together. It’s like his tie is a huge weirdly shaped slice of pizza, topped with pepperoni.

“Do we need to make new friends?” I groaned.

“We can’t isolate ourselves from everyone for the rest of our lives, August.”

I stared at him. Eleanor is turning into his wife.

“Did Eleanor tell you about the television agency?” He asked.
