Chapter Twenty-Three

Sarah

THE NEXT DAY SARAH and Nak slipped out of the press junket to grab some coffee. It was only 10:00 a.m. The actual interviews were just getting started, but the setup was delayed, and they had been waiting around since 8:00 a.m. They were out late again last night with the premiere, and Sarah was tired this morning. She still hadn’t recovered from her sleep deficit yet. She had gotten a shower but had not gotten coffee, and her head was starting to pound from the lack of caffeine.

On their way to the café, Sarah and Nak ran into a group of people who Nak knew. One was a makeup artist who used to date Liam, and two others were people who Nak had worked with previously. He introduced Sarah, and she listened to the conversation for several minutes, not really having much to add to the exchange.

As Nak stood talking with his friends, Sarah interrupted, “I’m going to grab that table before it’s gone. You want a coffee, right?” There was one table left on the sidewalk, and Sarah wanted to be able to sit outside. The view of the beach was so beautiful she couldn’t imagine wasting it by being inside. Besides, her head felt as if she wore an invisible vice as a hat and it was being tightened every minute she was caffeine-free.

“Yes, black. I’ll be right there.”

She smiled at the group and said, “It was nice to meet you.”

She made her way to the table and sat down on one of the wrought iron chairs. The server approached her immediately and took her order. As the waitress left, Sarah looked around the cafe. She was right to grab the table. There was a line starting to form by the entrance. She could see Nak still talking to his friends about thirty feet away from her, and every table in the cafe was full.

As she glanced around, she noticed an attractive man in his late twenties sipping coffee and writing in a leather-bound book. She wondered what he was writing about. Her journal was in her bag. She hadn’t had much time to write in it since she arrived in France. She had done some journaling on the plane, but she hadn’t documented any of her experiences since they landed. She debated whether she would have enough time to do any decent writing before Nak joined her. It was worth a try, she thought. Sarah pulled it out of her purse. If nothing else it would make her look busy. Just as she began to write, a shadow crossed her journal page and she looked up expecting it to be Nak taking the seat across from her. It wasn’t Nak. It was the eye-catching man who Sarah had spotted when she first sat down.

He waved his journal in front of his chest and spoke in a thick French accent. “Not many of us still use paper. So you are a writer, too?”

Sarah nodded with a smile as she closed her book.
