"What the hell are you doing in this musty library on a saturday evening, girl?", she asked Laura, who struggled to control her tears."The truth was,the past two weeks had been very hard for her. A sadistic boss, a demanding job, a miserable social life....wonder what it is like to have a difficult life..?"There's a cosy party at the accenture club, coming?",Alex asked. Rightly interpreting Laura,s silence, she added,"It's time you moved on.....i know a cute guy Who's interested in you....just put on that lil' black dress and come for sometime, please...". Reluctantly, Laura went to her apartment, washed her face with cold water, got dressed,put on some gloss and mascara. She reached the club in five minutes flat. She said hello to some of her friends, and went to the restroom to touch up her she opened the door, she gasped. Her ex- boyfriend, Raol and some girl whom she didn't know were kissing passionately.

"Just got a degree in management...i'm hunting for a job.."he replied. As they went on talking, she completely forgot about Raol, who was sitting in the next table in the restaurant with his latest girlfriend. Noah was humourous, bright...and she found herself liking him. She looked at her watch. It had been hours and she had to go home. As she got up and told good bye, he hesitantly asked her "do you...do you wanna go out with me?". Laura looked into his eyes and replied "yes, I would like that very much". She couln't believe sh had been depressed just a few hours back.
