“What? Say that again!” Jeffrey’s voice boomed through the room, startling the manager to the point where he nearly thought his eardrums would burst.

“He... he just told me that.” The manager was on the verge of tears. It wasn't his choice to set up this blind date! Jeffrey clenched his fists, storming toward Karen's parents’ apartment door.

He hammered on the door, and there was Karen’s dad again.

Seeing another unfamiliar face on his doorstep, her dad looked cautious; he was sizing up the tall young man before him.

“Can I help you?” “Karen's going on a blind date?” Jeffrey had lost all sense of rationale, not caring about the harshness of his tone.

I don’t know what you are to her, but my daughter isn’t home. If you have business, wait for her to come back.” Jeffrey tried to speak again, but Derek had already shut the door.

He considered knocking again but knew it was pointless. Besides, Karen wasn’t there.

Jeffrey descended the steps, finding the manager still trembling in anticipation.
