| [atrb=cellpadding,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true][atrb=border,0,true] i hear my name blow through the wind temptation to chase but who knows where it goes "I hope you're joking," the suited man perched opposite Suzette flinched back into his chair, a cold sweat starting to form at his brow the longer the tiny young lady stared at him, unnaturally golden eyes glinting as she noticed his discomfort. "Ten thousand credits? I'm not that cheap, am I?" A design draft for liquid nitrogen bullets was worth far more than such a measly sum - who did he think she was? Some scummy, back-alley hack? Surely the name alone was worth a hundred times what he was offering; just being able to claim 'yes, this is a Martin original' would be worth every last credit he spent. Unfortunately, as the man muttered his apologies and rose from his seat, it became quite clear that he, in all his cheapness, wasn't going to shell out the cash Suzette truly deserved for her creation. Her smile slipped momentarily, a scowl spreading across her face. Stingy jerk, who did he think he was?! "I'm sorry for wasting your time, Mademoiselle Martin," and without another word, the businessman nodded awkwardly and scurried off with his tail between his legs, not daring to look back even once at the French engineer. Glancing back down at the large slice of strawberry shortcake sitting untouched on her plate, Suzy's smile returned in full, hysterical force. Oh, well. Even if this project had failed, at least she had gotten a free piece of cake out of it; and besides, there were plenty of other independent contractors out there in need of a fresh faced engineer with a good family name, right? Of course! Whenever a door was closed, a window was opened, or something like that. There were probably dozens of people desperate her Suzette Martin; she could hear them now, "Oh, Dr. Suzy, you're so smart!" "I'll give you whatever you want, Suzy!" Giggling, she stabbed her fork into her cake, impaling one of the many strawberries and bringing it to her lips, absently nibbling on the tip, still lost in her fantasy. open . TAGGED 0354 .
