Greatest of Friends || Violet and Veronica
“Hi, hi, hi!” Veronica exclaimed as she pushed open the door to the cafe. “Sorry, sorry-- I got bogged down at work and lost track of time!”
If anyone gave the pair of women sitting at the front window of the cafe half a glass, one might think Veronica was Violet’s assistant. Her friend looked out of place in the litter eatery-- too polished and high class for a restaurant where half the staff was running around in jeans and t-shirts. Veronica fit the vibe a bit more-- business casual, dressed for work and clearly on her lunch break.
It was lucky for her Violet was a good sport about meeting her for lunch here once a week.
“How was the gallery opening?” Veronica asked, pulling off her jacket as she sank into the chair opposite her friend. She hoped she hadn’t started out with a sore subject-- Violet had told her that Will Stark was planning to take her to a gallery opening in the city, but Vee knew about Will’s penchant for cancelling last minute. While Vee would love to attend gallery opening and all of the opulent parties, she didn’t think she’d put up with being treated the way Will seemed to treat Violet at times.
“No where nearly as glamorous, but I did see some very lovely crayon drawings last week when my boss brought his daughter to work. They were all across a variety of rather important documents,” Vee said with a laugh.
