Anita accepted his response to her secret society quip as readily as she accepted his business card which she pocketed after a glance and smile. . It might be a bar to check out sometime. Adrian worked over there, so she could make it. Come to think of it, she had never gone to the burlesque club. That might be a fun trip sometime.
Anita was glad for Rachel. Hopefully she’d make a full recovery from whatever malady she had. Her mind went back to the strange man that had been with her. The one who had attacked the detective. That had been odd, but she had asked to change the subject and dwelling on Rachel’s case right now wasn’t going to get her anywhere.
Hayden’s next question wasn’t unexpected, but her schedule was a 24 hour one/48 hour off schedule. She mostly had a routine. The first day was for her, and the second day was for others - friends and family. But she was malleable and willing to change the routine. Today she was kind of in that mood.
”Well it depends. Movies, reading, music, whatever. Today though, I decided to come here, have a few drinks, see if I came across anyone interesting,” she looked around the room as if looking for someone, but the glint in her eyes and the curl of her smirk showed she was teasing him - a slight flirt to see where he was. ”If I don’t find that here, well, maybe I’ll go somewhere else. See what else I can find. Sometimes - what happens happens.”
