"Miss, Please what did you say is your name?" The receptionist asked pretending not to know the renowned figure's name.

"Stephanie. Stephanie Woods," Stephanie said as she nervously awaits the outcome of her lies. After a minute the receptionist put back the telephone in its former position.

"Miss Stephanie, he said he is expecting you," the receptionist relayed to the delight of the previously nervous Stephanie.

Wow! I can't believe he just played along with my lies. For him to have agreed to see me shows that he really feels guilty for what he did. Knowing this alone makes me very happy.

"Ok, thank you," Stephanie said as she turned and walked away. She did not take up to five steps before she walked back to her former position.

"Miss Stephanie, did you perhaps forget something?" the receptionist asked politely.
