Opus iii: It's A Fine Day



More a precursor to the horror later to unfold. Valerie arrives at the wine bar straight from work. It was a late meeting, and she hasn't eaten anything other than a carrot stick and some cottage cheese at 10.30 that morning. It is now 7.45 pm. Also Roger dumped her 2 weeks ago, citing his new found enthusiasm for homosexuality. She is greeted by her friends waving glasses of champagne, and feels a new found freedom wash over her. The night is young and so is she. Also that guy from accounting who smiles at her is there too. Who knows how this night might end? In new love and laughter? Or in projectile vomiting and tears?
