The waiter lingered as Mira beamed at him with practiced charm.
Watching this exchange, Kimi shook her head.

Kimi recognized most of the staff working at this upscale club. She had worked alongside them at a downtown restaurant during her college years.

"You asked me here for a reason. What's eating at you?" Kimi pressed.
Mira hesitated before reaching for Kimi's hands.
