Keeley steeled herself by taking a deep breath as she stood in front of Aaron's gigantic luxurious apartment complex. Once she went in, there would be no going back.
Unfortunately, she couldn't doorbell ditch him either since she didn't have the elevator key. Her plan was to go in, pet the cat for a few minutes, and leave by claiming she had homework to do (which was actually true).
She stepped into the grand lobby and approached the doorman at the desk. "Hi, I'm here to see Aaron Hale? He lives in the penthouse."
The doorman seemed to recognize her from the three times she had been there before but remained professional. "Your name, miss?"
"Keeley Hall."
He excused himself to the back room, no doubt to call Aaron and buzz her in, and returned less than a minute later.
"Right this way, Miss Hall."
The doorman turned the elevator key for her before stepping out and wishing her a nice day.
