Searching for Number 7

Or course, Skyler already knew why Shikera was calling her late at night, but she didn't want to sound eager and thereby make Shikera suspect she was up to something.

"I wanted to ask if the offer still stands. I pay you the hotel normal charges and I live like I am in an hotel," Shikera inquired.

"Yes! Do you want me to pick you up now?" Skyler hurriedly asked. Though she had not gone to see the house yet, she already knew the general direction. There would be no problem since it was already furnished too.

"No, I can come over instead. But that would be tomorrow morning since it's already late. Or do you have an appointment?"

"No. I'm not working either since my work is to assist you, so I will come to the hotel first thing tomorrow!"

Shikera chuckled,"If you insist then. I'll call you when I wake up."

"I will be waiting for your call!" Skyler exclaimed excitedly.
