Maisie beamed as Zinnia came out in her new outfit. She stepped forward and twirled Zinnia around. The more she looked, the more pleased she became. She found dressing up Zinnia such a joy.

“Same as always, charge these to my mom’s account. Send some to the Spence residence and the rest to Cloud Harbor,” Maisie told the sales associate. Then she took Zinnia by the hand and led her upstairs to their reserved restaurant.

They booked a seat at a window–side table. The night view outside was lovely, and elegant piano music drifted softly through the restaurant.

As they sat down, the waiter promptly brought over the menus. Maisie urged excitedly, “Zinnia, come on, hurry up and order! Get whatever you like. We’re going all out!”

In the end, the two of them ordered chili con carne. It had been ages since they last enjoyed one, and their mouths were practically watering with anticipation.

“Maisie, I’m gonna go to the restroom,” Zinnia said, taking advantage of the wait while the dish was being served.

“Want me to come with you, Zinnia?” Maisie asked.

“No need, I’ll be right back,” Zinnia said. Then she left the restaurant and headed down the long hallway to the restroom. On her way back, she froze in her tracks when she spotted a man and woman kissing passionately in the elevator.

Zinnia recognized the man as Donald. But she couldn’t see the woman’s face.

Donald and the woman were locked in a fierce, almost violent kiss, their movements wild and desperate. Donald’s hands kept roaming relentlessly over her exposed shoulder, venturing deeper beneath her clothes.

Zinnia felt sick to her stomach at the sight. She pulled out her phone and, unable to bear looking, snapped a quick photo of the couple in the elevator.
