Entrance


The night blanket covered the cloudy skies of that winter evening on Mexico City, the wind blew it's cold air softly but constantly playing with the leaves on the trees through all of the Reform Passage Boulevard, it was cold and the cloudy night started showering softly the whole area with a soft breeze, a figure looked out through the glass on a hotel lobby into the dark night.

He walked out of the W Hotel and into the black town car that was waiting for him in front of the hotel and slide within the car holding an envelope into his hands. The small drops fell into the glass as he stared out into the night while the town car went by through traffic. He started adjusting his ponytail and fringe that was almost all the way down to his chin, he pulled the long brown hair back and took out his cellphone then looked out into the scenario again. The diming light of the cars and the places on the side of the streets combined with the rain slowly falling gave the whole scenario a wonderful dreamland look. The pavement was shining and the lights dancing around like fireflies.

The town car slowly stopped at a golden lit cover, having a carpet by its side, it was the elegant entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel, the door was opened and he went out of the car and into the carpet, he adjusted his jacket and started walking into the lightened lobby of the Hotel holding the envelope tightly. When he reached the middle of the room he looked up at the hanging chandelier and looked around hoping to find a familiar face.

Slowly she slide out of the car and wrapped her arm around her boyfriend's, her other hand picked up a bit of her dress and she moved through the carpet into the elegant lobby where she spotted the tall figure of a man who she hadn't seen in many years.  She held the envelope in her hand tightly and walked slowly calming her heartbeat, she knew he would be there but she didn't really expected him to.

Once the stunning couple was inside the lobby she turned to the man who accompanied her and placed her hand on his chest.

Oh darling! Go get me a drink will you? I'll meet you in the bar. – She said and kissed his cheek, then turned and walked to the man she had spotted. He had changed, but his always eccentric look placed him on everyone's radar. When she arrived close to him, she moved slowly, carefully, not making a sound and then once she reached his ear she whispered- Cute ponytail.

He turned around and stared face to face to the girl who stood by his side through all those years of rough days and helped him when there was nobody who seemed to care. He smiled and chuckled.

- Well I certainly can't believe your waist didn't changed a bit! – He moved close to her and kissed her cheek. He continued while smiling- I hoped you would come. It has been so long. You look amazing, years have been of favor to you sweetie.

- Thank you, you look pretty stunning yourself and I do love that hairstyle, out of the ordinary, a bit too much and yet, still quite delicious, quite a bit you, as always- She replied with a laugh- Though I do must confess I am surprised to see you here. Those were rough times.

-Well – He raised his hand and waved the envelope to her- I was invited and it is RSVP so I wouldn't miss an invitation like that for the world.

- Of course – She chuckled – However those bitches did give you a hard time. I am surprised you are willing to see them again.

- Ten years my dear. It gives people a lot of punches and slaps and to be honest seeing them again is quite a promising show.- He looked around at the wonderfully lit lobby and the elegant furniture- And this scenario. Oh it does promises to be quite a surprising evening. Doesn't it? – He said stretching his arm for her to hold. 

- It does – She said and smiled while grabbing his arm and walking towards the bar were her man awaited them. It did seemed to be a night that promised something, however she felt uneasy at that thought and for a second the idea of that something not being a pleasant something made her want to run away from that place. 

Her thoughts were silenced by the echo of a shouting voice from the entrance of the Four Seasons. Her mind was shocked and turned to where the shout came from. The evening was just starting.
