Fragment #80 - Planning on meeting a Balinese guy

“Miss Collomb?”
“Oh, hi Jake, how are you today?”
“I’m good thank you, yourself?”
“Not bad… What can I do for you?”
“Coming with me.”
“Excuse me, coming with you where?”
“In the East End. I have an appointment with a Balinese guy, for the article on exotic dances. But I’m not very good at interviews…”
“When is that appointment?”
“Monday. At 6.”
I check my agenda.
“It doesn’t really fit in my schedule… Have you asked Daniel or Giulia?”
“Er, yeah… They can’t come. You’re the only one available.”
I take 5 minutes to think. It’s not that I don’t trust him, but that guy is weird. And at 6, it’s night. And the East End is not exactly the best place in Glasgow to go and spend a Monday night.
But then again, these reflections might be just the effects of my little paranoia.
“Ok, I’ll come.”
