Chapter 11 by bsnick bsnick

Who is it from and what is the message about?

It's a job offer!

The message was actually an e-mail, and Rachel took a moment to recognize the fact. She'd never been much of a reader, and didn't much like texting or e-mailing, much preferring to actually talk to people.

As a result she skipped over much of the message until two words stood out.

'JOB OFFER'

A job? A paying job? Her eyes focussed with excitement filling her as she read a time and date before looking up and out the clear glass, a wide grin on her face as she imagined herself already famous.

It took awhile for the fantasy to dissipate and her focus to return to the phone, and even then she was barely able to read two words together. The message seemed to have some sort of calendar scheduling option to it, and she noticed Ceci had been cc'd on it.

Exiting the message she looked at the next one, seeing to her horror that it was from Ceci declining the job offer!

'not my thing' her reply said.

"What the...? Ceci, you idiot, you can't turn down a job!" Fumbling the small device, her long red nails making it more difficult to use, Rachel clicked back into the job offer and clicked yes. She scrolled down past the details without pausing, highlighted the address, and exited to use the phone's built-in route-finder app.

"Here's us..." she muttered, slowly typing in her new address, pausing frequently to remember. "Here's where I'm going," she said, pasting the address from the e-mail. The phone froze for a long time, making her bounce up and down in agitation as she feared the phone had died or lost connection. She even went out onto the balcony again to try and get better reception, holding the phone out as far as she could to get a signal and make it finish what it had started.

As she waved her hand she felt her heart leap as...
