Masters & Lovers Box Set Three
Chapter 11
I’m crossing the floor of the lobby, thinking about the ongoing groundworks of D-site and trying to decide whether to tackle the east or the west side first. I’m not truly paying attention to my surroundings.
“Morning, Kirstie.”
“Good morning Mr Alexanders.”

Kirstie…
Too much make-up…
Swollen eyes…
Trying not to be too obvious about it, I turn to take a better look at her. Even from the rear…

Not like her…
The elevator bings, but I ignore it, strolling back to the desk.
“Kirstie, is everything alright?”
“I'm fine, Mr Alexanders. Thank you for asking.”
She's painted on her business face, but as she speaks, she doesn’t look at me, keeping her eyes turned down. One thing I like about Kirstie is that she looks you in the eye…
Usually…
I take her chin in thumb and forefinger. “I expect you to look at me when I speak, Ms Jamieson...” But I cut myself short. Under the makeup she's caked on, her eyes are puffy.
“I’m sorry, sir. I’m fine.”
“No, you're not. You look terrible. Is it something I can help with?”
“No sir, it's... personal…”
I wait, giving her a silence to fill.
A flush rises up her neck, vanishing under the makeup line before it hits her face. “My sister, Erin is falling out with Ben....”
Not Ben again….
He really doesn't have the hang of people…
Why would that upset Kirstie so much?
