A man believes his partner is sulking after a canceled ticket, but she is actually walking away from the relationship for good. As he pieces together the truth behind her quiet departure, he is forced to confront the mistake that pushed her out the door.
Lily's face flashed crimson. Stop teasing. Even if I liked someone like Brendan, it's not like he'd ever look twice at me.
Everyone turned their eyes to Brendan, But he just smiled without denying it Lily gave a self-deprecating shrug see silence means agreement So you guys better introduce me to someone nice. Okay, Brandon finally spoke. I never said you weren't my type. Set my coffee cup down onto the counter with a dull hollow clatter a burst of rowdy laughter erupted from their table
Wait crap Lily suddenly gasp counting heads on her fingers before frantically pulling out her phone. We have a problem I messed up the hotel bookings when I booked the rooms. I only looked at the headcount four guys three I only booked three rooms total. She went back to fiddling with her phone The hotel is completely sold out for the holidays. What do we do? Then she glanced up and caught sight of me in the distance
Elena, I swear I didn't leave a room out on purpose the hotel next door has vacancies, but it's about $200 more expensive But you've got money. So it's no big deal for you, right? So would you mind booking another room for yourself? Are you targeting me on purpose?
Why did the missing room automatically fall on me? And more importantly, you messed up. So why should I be the one paying for it? Her expression crumpled into pathetic misery.
Elena, I'm just an intern. I haven't even graduated yet and my stipend barely covers rent. I cut her off cold. You're the one who begged to handle the reservations.
