My back is towards my assistant Esther, as she continues telling me about the arrangements I had told her to make. I am standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the view but my mind is so far away.
"And then by the weekend, you will be attending the exclusive party set in Los Angeles," she concludes.
"Thank you, Esther, that will be all," I turn and she nods, exiting the office.
Picking the iPad that has all the details for my weekend ahead, I can't help but sigh, sitting down on my office chair and looking back at the view behind me.
Today sets exactly one month since Madame's death.
I miss her. So much.
I open a secret drawer where I have her picture framed and thumb it as I watch her radiant smile and sparkling eyes look at the camera. I small smile forms on my lips just as I hear a knock on my door and Cory walks in.
