First Date
“As I entered the luxurious restaurant for my blind date, I had an odd feeling in the pit of my stomach. And there she was, all beauty with a tinge of mischievousness in her gaze. After saying hello to each other, we took a seat at our table. Her: So tell me, what is your line of work? Me: Well, before I came, I did some research on you because I’m a private investigator. I discovered you have a 9-month-old child who is still in Detroit, where you are originally from. How did your child fare?
Her: I needed to leave right away. My former partner’s family had dubious gang affiliations. I had no choice but to leave since he wouldn’t allow me to take our child out of the state.”
