Thanks to the whirlwind of the past few days, Yasmine had wandered two blocks before realizing she was wearing mismatched shoes.
Feeling like a drifter, she recognized that she truly had no place to call home.
As she sat on the sidewalk, lost in thought, a familiar black Range Rover pulled up in front of her.
"I almost couldn't believe my eyes. Why is last night's moon goddess sitting here on the curb?" The voice floated out as the window rolled down.
Xavier took off his sunglasses and raised an eyebrow at her.
"Oh, it's morning now, and the moon goddess has just clocked out," Yasmine replied. She looked up at him with a sudden smile. "You always seem to find me at my most embarrassing moments."
"I hope to see you in better ones, too." Xavier opened the car door for her. "Hop in."
