"Hey."

I looked up. A brunette woman was standing right in front of my desk, and I never heard her come in.

"Have you seen a guy come by here, kind of quiet? Blue eyes? Hair like a chocobo?" she asked.

"A choco-wha? Did you say chocolate?"

"No, a chocobo. You know. A big yellow bird?"

I clicked the intercom. "Just a moment, miss."

"Boss? There is a woman standing here going on about chocolate and Big Bird. Oh. Send her up right away? I didn't realize she was here to model. Very well."

"The boss will see you, Miss...?"

"Lockhart. Nice to meet you."
