Sammy was, quite possibly for the first time in months, awake early in a good mood. Coffee was an enhancement rather than a crutch this morning. Her first successful dinner with Qamar had brought up something she hadn't paid much attention to over the summer. She was registered for the fall semester but she hadn't finalized her schedule.

It had to be done. To that end, she was at her favorite coffee shop with her laptop to enjoy the morning and double check her schedule. Funny enough, she was looking forward to going back. The summer off had been just what she needed to give her a boost and refocus her goals.

Just as she asked the waitress for another cup and a second muffin, her cell phone vibrated in pocket. The display was an unfamiliar number. Ordinarily she would have ignored it, but it could be from Mikel at a different number.

She waited for the waitress to leave before answering. "Hello?"

"Hi, Sam. This is Therese. I met you the one night at dinner. I was there with your brother Mikel."

She frowned. "Hi. Right, yeah. Dinner. It was a nice dinner. Is he all right?"

"Mikel? Yes, he's fine. We're in town and he's busy with things and I thought maybe you'd like to something like going shopping. Mikel's not exactly the type and I really don't know anyone else in the city."

Sammy looked up and saw a familiar face looking back. That guy must spend more time in here than she did. She smiled a little and turned her attention back to the call.

"Um...sure. I'm not really much of a shopper but I could probably use a few things."

Sammy had to give her that one.

Shopping would be a chance to see if she could get any more information on Big Brother. "What time would you like to meet?"

Therese took a cab and arrived five minutes early. She believed in being a little early or right on time. Being late was a sign in inconsideration and it was just rude.

She waited just outside the doors and enjoyed the summer day.

Sammy was, admittedly, a minute late. Not being somebody who took cabs everywhere, she'd taken the subway to 34th and battled the crowded streets to get through.

She spotted Therese outside the main doors and sighed. Bad impression on Mikel's girlfriend to be late. So she paused time to run around the knots of people in her way to get there as quickly as possible.

Time resumed when she was a few yards away. "Therese? Hello," she called.

"Sorry I'm late. A lot of people out today." She smiled at Mikel's girlfriend as she approached. Her computer bag over her shoulder was shifted around to lessen the weight on her back. "At least the subway was running on time, mostly."

"Don't worry about it. I was just enjoying the beautiful weather. And smog." She smiled. "Shall we?"

"Let's do some damage," she answered cheerfully. "The smog has to be good for something. When did you and Mikel get into town?" The automatic doors whooshed open and scented store air rushed at them. Somewhere inside was the leather shop. Sammy loved leather.

"Late last night," she said. "We're only in town until tonight. The hazards of the work." Therese loved shopping and didn't get to do it often.

"Tell him I said hi." Sammy led the way toward shoe department. "What's your weakness? Spikes or flats?"

Sammy finished her second cup of coffee and leaned back in the booth seat. She was at a loss of what to talk about next. They'd exhausted the subject of Mikel, his secretive plans and stubborn nature. The pleasantries were done. Something told her not to talk about Qamar much. So she waited to see if Therese would offer up something.

"Ready to go look for that book?" Therese asked after finishing her coffee.

"Yes."

In the children's department, Sammy found what she was looking for. Good children's literature never went out of style. Where the Wild Things Are had been a favorite of hers when she was a child. Dad read it to her, Mom read it to her, her nanny read it to her, and on one memorable poker game night, Uncle Ben read it to her in his deep, growly voice. At four years old, she tied a towel around her neck and set off with a juice box to find adventure with the Wild Things. Fortunately, she was caught before she got out of the building.

Therese might find it amusing, but Sammy wouldn't care. It was part of her childhood memories and they never embarrassed her.

She paid for the book and slipped it into her backpack. "Is there anything else you want to look for here? Macy's really does have everything."
