When I get back to the set, I hit the ground running with lunch in hand to see who sent those flowers. No one should know I'm here, so how did I get a bouquet of flowers? When I walk into the set, I see a sea of yellow roses. What do yellow roses have to do with a hydra? Oh there's Will. I run over out of breath.
"I came back as soon as I could. Where's the bouquet?"
"Look around." This is the bouquet.?
"All of them?"
"Yes, all of them."
"How many are there?"
"About 500."
"500! What am I supposed to do with 500 roses?"
"Hell if I know. Here's the card."
Remembering why I rushed here so quickly, I take the card with shaking hands. I think Will notices my reaction but doesn't say anything. I don't want to draw it out and tear the envelope open.
"Astra,
Congratulations on your new job. I am so happy that we have the opportunity to get to know each other again. I look forward to seeing you around.
Sincerely yours,
Alexi
