furnished. All I had to do was move in. The thought made me happy because I honestly didn’t have time to furniture shop. But that was just a dream because there was no way I’d be getting a call anytime soon that one was available.
Grabbing my phone, I scrolled through the listing of apartments in the city. I needed to stay in the area, so it limited my options. That was another perk of the apartment I fell in love with. It was the perfect location.
After drying off and getting into my pajamas, I poured a glass of wine and set it on the nightstand while I climbed in bed. With my glass in one hand and my phone in the other, I scrolled through as many listings as I could and saved a few that looked decent so I could call tomorrow and see if I could take a tour since I had the day off.
I sighed as I walked out of the last apartment I toured. Out of the four buildings I looked at, only one apartment was okay. The location was convenient; the price was right, but it was smaller than what I wanted, and it didn’t give off the homey vibe I’d been looking for. At this point, I really had no choice. I had one more apartment to tour, but I’d already had a feeling it wouldn’t work out for me. As I was heading there, my phone rang with an unfamiliar number.
“Hello.”
“Hi, is this Sara Davis?” the woman on the other end asked.
“Yes.”
“Hi Miss Davis, this is Renee from Altman Building Properties. You asked to be put on our waiting list when an apartment became available.”
My heart started racing.
“Yes. Do you have one?”
“We do. It’s a twelve hundred square foot two-bedroom, two bath which will be available and ready to move in on Friday. It’s been fully refurnished with brand new furniture throughout, and the rent is ten thousand a month. I know you were interested in a one bedroom, but honestly, there won’t be one available within the next few months. So, I’m calling to see if you’re interested in the two bedroom we have.”
Shit. Ten thousand a month was way more than I wanted to pay, but I hadn’t stopped thinking about it since I toured the model apartment a few weeks ago. It was bigger and who didn’t need more space.
“I’ll take it,” I spoke.
“Excellent. When would you be available to sign the lease?”
“I can come now if that’s okay.”
“That would be perfect. I’ll see you soon.”
Excitement soared through me as I placed my phone in my purse and took a cab to my new apartment.

“Good morning.” I smiled as I walked into the kitchen.
“Morning, bro. How did you sleep?” Nathan asked.
“Good.”
He poured me a cup of coffee and handed it to me.
“Where’s Mom?”
“She and Allison already left for the office.”
“Should she be going to work today?”
“She said she’s fine, and she ate some breakfast before they left. It’s not like I could stop her. She’s mom, and she’s stubborn.”
“True.”
“Good morning, Uncle Mason.” Ruby grinned as she gave me a hug.
“Morning, peanut.”
“I’m ready for school, Dad.”
“Okay. Let’s go. Be ready when I get back and we’ll go for a run.” Nathan pointed at me.
“Sounds good, bro. I need to go shopping today for some clothes. I go back to the station tomorrow.”
“Okay. I’ll go with you. I’m not doing anything today, but we have to be back for Ruby.”
Ruby and Nathan left, and I made myself some scrambled eggs. As I was sitting at the table looking at my phone, it rang with an unfamiliar number.
“Hello.”
“Hi, I’m looking for Mason Wolfe.”
“This is he.”
“Mr. Wolfe, this is Victoria from Altman Building Properties. I’m calling to inform you that a twelve hundred square foot two-bedroom, two bath apartment is available if you’re still interested.”
“Victoria, sweetheart, you just made my day. I am definitely interested. When will it be ready for move in?”
“Friday. I’m actually working from home today and I have the lease agreement with me. I can come by your place to have you sign it if that’s okay.”
“Perfect.” I rattled off the address.
“All I’ll need is a ten-thousand-dollar deposit, and the apartment is yours. I can take a check or credit card.”
“Not a problem.”
“Great. I can swing by your place in about an hour. Will that work?”
“I’ll be here. Thank you.”
I ended the call with a smile on my face. I’d been on the waiting list for that building for
