Chapitre 31: Chapter 31: THE WATCHER

"We're going out to Bartini's after work," Lance announced. Ashleigh looked up from her computer where she was doing more daydreaming than work. "Kendra's going to Bartini's?" she frowned.

"I'm just going for the non-alcohol variation," she explained.

"Ah. Gotcha. So you're going to pay six bucks for half a glass of fruit juice."

"Hmph," Kendra said. Her normally pretty face turned down into a scowl. "Ask Christopher to come then, since I know you can't do anything without him present."

Ashleigh turned to look at her friend, surprised by her snippy tone. "I was just kidding. What's wrong with you? Baby hormones?"

Kendra sighed. "It's just…you're so buried up under him anymore. Why do you have to get so wrapped up in a man, Ashleigh?" Ashleigh opened her mouth to say something but wasn't sure what there was to say. "I mean, I have Jeffery, Lance has Rick, and we still make time for our friends."
