Meeting You Was Fate

The night was cold and quiet as Mandy traveled to their rendezvous.

An hour later, she arrived at her destination, the Royal International Hotel. It was the best five-star hotel in City A. It had numerous luxurious facilities such as a swimming pool, hot spring, spa club, KTV, and other entertainment venues. The grandest of it was the revolving restaurant on the top floor. The grandeur came with a price, of course. It was said that the minimum meal was 200, 000 dollars per table.

Mandy had been seven years old when she had first set foot there. Back then, she had won the grand prize of the final piano competition for primary school students. Her parents had been so proud, and they had celebrated there. Her memory was so vivid, and she could almost see them having dinner at the revolving restaurant.

Standing there, she could see the panoramic view of the city.
