"Can I go with you to your emotional reality class next week?" Isobel asked Nikki, who had come in just before noon and was wearing a sensational pair of lemon yellow leather pants that showed off her long, slender legs.
Nikki raised an eyebrow at Isobel. "Really? You didn't seem so into it when I invited you."
"I've been thinking about it, and, like you said, singers aren't always so truthful in their acting. I really should get back in class."
Nikki considered this a moment, then nodded. "All right, then. But you'll have to ask Frank for the time off. It's from ten to twelve on Monday."
"I can skip lunch on Tuesday and Wednesday. Is it okay if I bring a friend?"
"Terence usually allows only one auditor per class, but I'll ask. Is your friend a singer too?"
Isobel shook her head vigorously. "Not at all."
