An easygoing employee made things smoother.
"Shall I arrange it?" "Yes, please, Colin. Thank you." "No worries.
Colin went off to make the arrangements inwardly sighing at the thought such a rare flower like Sherilyn possibly falling into Mr. Smith's hands?
But then he reasoned, if Sherilyn did end up with Mr. Smith it would bhly Smitht benefit the Neon Nights...
After the show, with Colin's arrangements, Sherilyn, fresh faded and in a change of clothes, made her poin way to Mr. Smith's private room.
