And turned on her heel, maneuvering through a group of women with tiaras perched on their heads and some silk sashes. She apologized, trying to worm her way through the small spaces left in between them as they all piled into the now open elevator, and closer to the main section of the lobby. The bells and whistles of the slot machines just beyond the half wall that separated the walkway from the casino section whirred away on her left, every now and then a patron would curse their luck and either try again or move to another machine.

”....What’s going on?”

She asked slowly, looking behind her as if she had any idea what she would even need to be looking for.

”Are y-” the blonde came to a stop just as she passed the corner of the long horseshoe shaped check-in desk. Blue eyes settled on the back of a very familiar jacket and she felt her heart seized up in her chest. She froze where she stood, squinting her eyes in disbelief. She could not be seeing….what she thought….she was seeing. Maybe someone had the same jacket. She looked up.

The person she was seeing, who she thought she was seeing, who couldn’t possible be the person she thought she was seeing- seeing, had their head bowed looking down at a cellphone. Maybe they….just happened to have the same haircut…

A group of people stepped around her, pouring through on either side of the walkway and into the main section. Trine stood at the mouth of the lobby.
