Yeah, I just can't think these days, so I'll be taking a longer break from posting anymore chapters for a while. My plan of finishing the whole book off during my time off is just not working out.

Chapter 16b - breakfast n' bed
"Sorry I couldn't make it to dinner last night, baby."
"That's ok sweetness. How did it go?"
Sing reached up and pulled some of her hair off of her face, revealing partially covered black emeralds that turned upwards towards Keel. Looking down into those startling eyes, Keel could see a Chestershire-like grin underneath the rest of the silk, surrounded by a semi-dark cream-like skin accented by high cheekbones.
"You got it didn't you?"
The grin instantly grew into a full ear to ear smile, showing two rows of perfectly aligned white teeth.
Sing suddenly leapt up, throwing her left leg over Keel, stradling him as she leaned forward, encompasing him as her long hair fell all around him. Her soft full lips finding his.
This was how Sing always gave Keel good news, or in this case, great news.
"We closed the deal at about 11:45pm and then some champange was popped to seal it."
That was Sing. She had started and built a small boutique PR firm four years ago by herself, using none of the recources readily availaible to her through her family, and yet she still diseminated the credit and glory for closing a contract with all of her employees. 'We'. All 50 of them. No wonder they loved her, Keel thought. Just not more than he.
"After they left, the gang wnated to brainstorm out some more ideas."
Sing had just closed a very lucrative contract with an Indian company that was expanding into the booming Alberta market.
"Well then, I'd say a celebration breakfast is in order. How about we go to Stappo's?"
Stappo's was a closet-sized Greek diner that had existed in Edmonton's downtown for well over 30 years. Keel had discovered it soon after he arrived in Edmonton and had introduced Sing to it before their fourth date. It was their favorite place. Even breakfast could be made romantic in there. The best part of the diner was the owner, Mr. Stappolous. He just loved loved Keel and adored Sing. he always had a Greek poem for them when they came by, even though the two of them had no idea what he was saying.
"Mmm, sounds wonderful. But I want some breakfast n' bed first, ... before we go eat."
2 1/2 hours later, they were listening to a poem.
