  November 11, 1998.

  I get dressed to went to the café with my best friend Danielle so I take my car to drive to the café and I turn up the radio. The radio plays November Rain by Gun N' Roses one of my favorites songs that I and my mother listening to this music many times after she dies by cancer.

  Later. I park my car at the side of the café then I put my red beret on a hat and grab my purse will all of the things I need like cash and make up. I saw Danielle was eating cheesecake with some syrup on it so I sit in front of her and Danielle grab a tissue to clean her mouth.

  "How is it going been single again?" Danielle takes a bite of the cheesecake.

  "It has been great like I can go to the movie theatre watching my favorite movie with Paul Rudd. What the movie called again, Dani?" I ask Danielle.

  "It called Clueless." Danielle put cheesecake away from her. "But what about your ex? Did he ever contact you about the cheating at you?"

  {Begin of flashback}

  Three months ago. September 10, 1998.

  I open the door to get inside my apartment with a lot of plants around then I heard a woman moaning not that kind moaning but someone enjoying themselves. The sound was coming from the bedroom that I and Finn sleeping together so I burst to open the door with my strength. I saw my boyfriend having sex with a redhead on our bed when Finn noticed me I turned around and left even say goodbye to him. I went to my older sister's place to talk about my boyfriend cheating on me with a redhead.

  {End of flashback}

  A young man wearing an apron appears and my heart just starting beating when he arrives to make our order. So, I have to look at the table with no eye contact with this handsome young guy.

  "Good morning, ladies." The guy's voice is so smooth and youthful. "What you guys ordering tonight?"

  "I want cassoulet and for the drink, I want red wine," Danielle said to the guy. "Thank you. What your name again, sir?"

  "My name is Miles. Nice to meet you." Danielle and Miles shake hands.

  "Danielle. And this is best friend Chloe."

  Miles tried to handshake me but I put my both hands underneath the table and I reading the menu. "I think I want to mac cheese with some fries and I just want water." I give the menu back to Miles and Danielle too.

  "Thank you." Miles left.

  "Did you have a crush on him, Chloe? Because I know your face when you having about someone so do you have a crush?" Danielle ask me.

  "No! I never have a crush in my life." I was playing with my fingers.

  Danielle smirk at me. Anyways, Miles appears again with our foods and our drinks. I grab a fork inside the napkin and I cut into the mac a cheese then take a bite and taste just like my mother makes it. "Thank you so much for bringing our foods, Miles," Danielle said to Miles.

  "You are welcome, ma'am." Miles smiled at Danielle with shiny teeth. "Enjoy your dinner, ladies."

  I saw Danielle saying something but she was inaudible but I know she was talking about without a sound so she is saying that I should get Miles number. "Can I get your phone number in my contact, Miles?" My hand was starting to sweat while I waiting for Miles' answer.

  "Sure." Miles pull a piece of paper and pen out of his pocket and he wrote his phone number on the paper. "Here is my number, ma'am."

  I nodded and I put the paper in my pocket. Later, when we finish eating our food, Miles arrives one more time to give the check for our foods so Danielle gives some cash to Miles then we get inside my car. I turn the engine on of my car and the radio playing Fantasy by Mariah Carey but it was the French version. I drove to my apartment where I and Danielle staying my ex-boyfriend left me with the redhead.

  I unlock the door from my apartment then I place the purse at the top of the holder. I heard someone was watching a movie on the television in the living room so I walking to the living room to see that my little sister Catherine or just Cat for short. Cat was watching Jurassic Park while eating some popcorn, I knocked at the wall behind me when Cat noticed me she quickly turn the volume down of the movie and she giving me a comfy hug. And she also hugs Danielle.

  "How the hell you get inside my apartment, Cat?" I ask Cat. "Because I don't remember giving you the key to my apartment."

  "Your boyfriend Finn gives the key to your guy's apartment last month." Cat show me the key.

  "Me and Finn breaking up three months ago and he is dating a redhead now," I said. "And now I am single again."

  "Aww, I am so sorry. I didn't know that." Cat patting me on my shoulder.

  "Finn is a douchebag of doing that to you, Chloe." Danielle rolls her eyes.

  "Where you and Danielle went before I get here first?" Danielle ask.

  "We went to café and you're older sister have a crush on the waiter name Miles," Danielle told Cat.

  Cat jaw drop. "Very! Did my sister get his phone number to allow us to call Miles?"

  Danielle nods. Cat and Danielle sit down on the crouch, Danielle pulls up the piece of the paper that has Miles phone number and her dial the number. Cat picks up the phone then she waiting for Miles to answer the call and her eyes widened when he answers the call.

  "Hello. This is Catherine Sommer and my older sister you just met at the café. Anyways, are you interest in the date of my sister Chloe, Miles." Cat nodding and also say yes multiple times on the phone. "Great! She will be there this night so getting for the date. Thank you." She places the phone back to the base.

  "What Miles about the date with Chloe, Cat?" Danielle hugging a pillow on her chest.

  "We both have to go to the mall to find a perfect fit for you, Chloe." Cat and Danielle stand up and staring at me.

  {Timeskip}

  15 minutes later. The Suncoast mall.

  Cat and Danielle were looking for some dress for me to wear for a date with Miles from the Café and Cat show me a white dress with flowers on it. Then Cat pulls out a red dress with black dots on it like a ladybug and I have chosen one of the dresses to wear on the date. I pointed at the white dress with flowers on it because it reminds me of my mother. I grab the dress to get inside the change room and take off all my clothes not my bra and panties.

  I wearing the dress so when I turning around to see myself in the mirror. I almost starting to cry because I just remember the good time I have with my mother before she got cancer. I heard behind me is someone was knocking at the door so I slowly open the door and it was a young man wearing a yellow hat.

  "Um...Who are you, sir?" I look up and down at the man. "This the girl changing room."

  "I am nobody. I just need help to find my daughter because my daughter running away from me for no reason." The man said. "Please help me, ma'am."

  So, I walk out of the changing room then I saw the man pulls out a pistol in his pocket. I quickly run away from him to not get shot from him but I was unsuccessful and he shot me at my back. I got unconscious.
