"You want my advice?" Isaac asked, settling back in his chair. "Just go to California. Now. Don't look back."

Josh looked up from the floor and shook his head. "Oh, have I tried."

"And what's the problem?" Isaac wondered.

"Hung up before the people at the travel agency could even answer the phone," he replied.

"You need help," his friend told him, looking up at the cieling. "You really, truly do."

"Then help me," Josh said, his eyes pleading.

But Isaac only shook his head. "I can't. This is your problem, and frankly, I don't want to get involved until later on, possibly when you call to tell me that the two of you are getting married or whatever."

"Let's go shopping," Esme called, walking into her friend's office. "It's Poker Night and Toby is kicking me out of the house. So come on honey, I need a new pair of shoes, a purse and scarf to match."

"What if I don't want to?" C.J. asked, grinning.

"Too bad, you're going." Flopping into a chair across from her, Esme brushed blond hair out of her face. "I can't do this type of thing on my own, you know. I need someone there with me to help me ease my spending crave."

Crossing her legs, C.J. nodded. "True."

"I mean, the phone needs to have some time to it's self, darling. It may like you spending all your lonely time at it's side, but I'm sure, if it could think at all, it would like you to get out and mingle with the rest of the happy people," she went on, flicking her nails. "I'll see you in the lobby in five. If you're not there, I'll get security and you can take that any way you want."

Trying on a coat, Esme looked herself over in the full length mirror. "Do I look hot in this coat?"

"What are you getting at?" C.J. murmured, slightly bored.

"Well, I want something that'll make Toby's head turn when I walk into the room."

"You already make his head turn when you walk into the room."

Pouting softly, Esme smoothed her side and nodded. "I know that. But I want a to see a little more flare in his eye's when I do so, you know what I mean? The kind that says that he wants to rip the coat off of me."

"Um, yeah," C.J. coughed. "That coat could do that. I'm not the best judge on what Toby likes to rip off of...you."

"Oh, I know that honey," her friend giggled. "Just wanted your opinion, that's all. I'm gonna get it. I mean, it is on sale."

"Finally called," Josh told his friend as they rounded to corner of the hallway going to his office. "Leaving Wednesday afternoon."

"When are you going to call the lovely lady and telling her you're going?" Isaac wondered, throwing away a gum wrapper. "She should be forewarned."

"I tried calling her yesterday, but she wasn't home," he answered.

Nodding, Isaac then asked, "Did you try her cell phone by any chance?"

"No," Josh stressed. "But I'll do that tonight."
