Harriet and I struck up a conversation for a bit. She complimented my outfit. Because most people were still ignorant that Aiden and I had arrived together, I was spared from all the intrusive questions. Our friendship lasted until she saw someone she recognised, and a third person was unwelcomed. Despite this, I had plenty of opportunities to mingle. I kept my drink in my hand and went around meeting new folks. I tracked down Larry and a few others of my team, who were delighted to introduce me to others.
But I had to be careful about how much I drank. Someone would press another drink on me as soon as I finished the first. I started carrying a half-full glass around after two fast drinks. I noticed that I was enjoying myself now that I was no longer with Aiden. I had entered the terrace and stood in a corner, taking in the panoramic view. We were on the top level, and I must say, the view was breathtaking. Standing on the edge, I could see half of the city stretched out, running down to the beach, with the bay as the backdrop. This is the kind of office I'd like to have. My workstation did, in fact, face a window, but it wasn't the bay. I had a great view of a blank wall on the other side of the road.
"Enjoying the party so far?" Someone asked.
