Sonia was going to be very excited about this new turn of events, and start building castles in the air. Sonia would then start trying to look for ways to make her imaginary ship sail.

Who else could she talk to aside from Sonia? Probably Lucas. Her twin brother was her male best friend, and maybe a male would better understand how Tom\'s mind was functioning at the moment.

She picked up her glasses from the couch where Tom had dropped them, and placed them on the table, before carrying the bottle of wine and the pizza box which still contained about six pieces of pizza to the refrigerator. Thanks to Tom her appetite had completely vanished. After storing them in the refrigerator she walked into her bedroom and sat down on her bed before dialing Lucas\' line.

Lucas was seated in his living room watching a soap opera with his fiancee when his phone started ringing, "I really hope it\'s not the hospital," Lucas said when Rachel stood up to get his phone which was charging close to the television.

"No. It\'s your twin," Rachel informed him as she handed the phone to him.

"Hey! How are you?" Lucas asked immediately after he received her call.

"I\'m fine. Are you very busy at the moment? I could call back later," Lucy said apologetically. Being a medical doctor, she knew he was almost always busy, hence she tried not to call him often unless it was very important.

"No, I\'m not. I\'m not on call tonight. Rachel is here with me, do you want to say hi?" He asked, referring to his fiancee.

As if he expected her to decline when he had just mentioned that she was there listening to their conversation, Lucy mused with an eye roll before saying, "Sure."

During their High school days, Rachel had tried to come between her and Lucas, and even though she had forgiven Rachel for her brother\'s sake, she couldn\'t forget what Rachel had done, so their relationship was still strained.

Lucas handed the phone to his fiancee, "Hey Lucy! It\'s so nice to hear from you," Rachel greeted in a very friendly tone.

Lucy tried to sound friendly for the sake of Lucas who she knew was trying hard to smoothen the relationship between his twin sister and the love of his life, "Same here. How has work been?" Lucy asked Rachel who was a pharmacist.

"Not bad at all. I hope you settled in alright? Maybe one of these days we will drive down to see how you\'re doing."

"Maybe," Lucy said, hoping Rachel would hand the phone to Lucas now that they were done with the small talk. She wasn\'t really the type that enjoyed chitchats, but Rachel seemed to enjoy doing that a lot even though they both weren\'t very close.

"So what is Ludus like?" Rachel asked, wanting to continue the conversation.

Lucy winced, "I\'m sure you will find out when you eventually visit me. Do you mind handing the phone to my brother? I need to speak with him about something important," Lucy explained as politely as she could.

"Oh! Sure then," Rachel said, and quickly returned the phone to Lucas, not before telling him that Lucy said she wanted to tell him something important.

"Is everything okay?" Lucas asked in concern as he excused himself from Rachel.

"Well, I need your opinion on something. It\'s about a female friend..."

"Sonia?" Lucas asked since Sonia was the only female friend in Lucy\'s life.

"No. You don\'t know her. She is the friend of my colleague here," Lucy lied, making Lucas frown.

"Okay... What about your friend? Is she ill?"

"No. It\'s not health-related. The thing is, she met this guy at a club, and then they were supposed to have a one-night stand. Now the guy happens to be her neighbor and driver at work, but according to the guy he didn\'t have sex with her because she was drunk and it was her first time..."

Lucas narrowed his eyes, "Neighbor and driver? How is that possible? Are you sure he is not stalking her?"

"We don\'t think so. Although she thought so at first. But the thing is, he was living in the building before she moved in, so there is no way he was stalking her. So there is no way he is stalking her. And there is also no way he could have gotten a job in her company just to be her driver within two days that she started working there, right?" Lucy asked thoughtfully.

"Wow! I think I know this your colleague\'s friend. Her name doesn\'t happen to be Lucinda Perry, does it?" Lucas asked in amusement.

"It\'s not me. It\'s a friend\'s friend!" Lucy said defensively making Lucas chuckle.

"Oh? No longer a colleague\'s friend? Okay. I believe you. Go on."

Lucy chose to ignore the sarcasm she could clearly hear in his tone, "Well, now he says he has to be her first lover since he was the one who was supposed to do it the first time," Lucy couldn\'t help feeling foolish as she spoke.

"Okay. And what does this your friend\'s friend who sounds exactly like you, think?" Lucas asked, making Lucy grit her teeth.

"I said I\'m not the one," she snapped at him.

"I didn\'t say you are the one either, did I? I only said she sounds a lot like you. So go on, what does she think?" Lucas asked again curiously.

"Well, he is her driver, remember? Things will be awkward between them. Besides he is interested in a relationship with someone else. And he has the attention of so many ladies. They are also neighbors, so it\'s going to be weird," Lucy said.

"Is that what she thinks? Are those the reasons she doesn\'t want to be with him? Or perhaps she is just scared of getting emotionally attached to him, so she is hiding behind those excuses?" Lucas asked, making Lucy frown.

"No! She doesn\'t even like him that much," Lucy quickly corrected.

"So what could be the problem? I wonder why she chose to have a one-night stand with him in the first place. She didn\'t happen to tell you why, did she?"

Knowing that if she told him the truth about the birthday night he would figure out it was her, she decided not to, "No she didn\'t."

"I think the guy likes her," Lucas said after some time.

"He doesn\'t. I already told you that he likes someone else," Lucy reminded him.

"You sound like you know the guy in question personally."

"No, I don\'t. I\'m just telling you what she said. So what do you think?" Lucy asked impatiently.

Lucas thought about it for a moment, and he had a feeling in his gut that the whole thing wasn\'t a mere coincidence, but he didn\'t know how else to explain it. Perhaps it was fate? He liked that the man whoever he was hadn\'t touched his sister while she was drunk. It showed he was a disciplined person, and if anyone was going to be with his sister, he\'d rather it be someone like that.

"Well, I agree with him. If someone has to do it, then it can as well be him.. He earned the right after all."
