The first interrupted the dull silence:
“May I ask who you work with?” Just curious who you are by profession. Beautiful girls usually go either in models or in lawyers, but, as it seems to me, you do not fit into any of these categories.
I ...the blonde hesitated, it's hard to explain. I didn’t even finish school ...
- Okay, I get it. Your work is a taboo subject. Okay. Hmm ... - for a second thought, Rick continued. - Tell me about your s ...
Suddenly, Julia's face made a strange expression. He did not immediately understand what she was watching TV, on which they played a music channel.
- what? - turning, Rick saw that he was showing one of the latest clips of Jade. - Do you like singer Jade? he said in surprise.
- Ahem ... Well ... So ... I heard ... - She did not understand why, but she suddenly huddled several times stronger. I think you have an adapter for charging? - Jade tried to quickly change the subject.
“Calm ...” she urged herself. “No one will recognize you ...”
Yes, in my house, Rick answered, not suspecting a trick. I want him for you.
- I would be very grateful.
Rick nodded to her without answering.
Moore breathed a sigh of relief.

Tomorrow, Rick suggested that Jade should not be attracted to him to get rid of a habit that can be easily broken, to go to him.
The road did not take them. Jade happily discovered the fact that their houses are almost nearby. The woman looked around. The planning was almost identical at home. I live here all the time. All things lay in their rightful places. Every detail, even the smallest figurine, fits perfectly into the environment, tells about the owner. Moore noticed that the room was in perfect order. Perfectly made bed, flowers ... and your flowers never took root. Without much excess, but tasteful and homely.
I want to stand apart so as not to disturb him. Suddenly she noticed a shelf with a collection of CDs from various films and music. She enjoyed the new masterpieces of the film industry. Suddenly, he noticed two familiar discs, Jade nearly choked.
I have all the albums! Moore almost exclaimed, but she restrained herself in time.
- Julia, what's wrong with you? - Rick instantly appeared nearby, patting on the back. He looks so closely, he asked. - Do you want to take a disc Jade?
Um ... No thanks. Jade, trying to hide the excitement in her voice.
“If only you would not betray yourself!”
- Are you serious? - Rick looked. - Jade is one of the most famous contemporary performers. Winner of more than 200, despite being only twenty-seven, including 7 Grammy Awards, 31 Billboard Music Awards, 22 American Music Award, 7 City Soul Train Music Awards, 16 NAACP Image Awards, Emmy Award, Award BET Lifetime Achievement Award, and others on the little things. I like you.
“Wow ... Um ...” dealt with another shock wave, Moore continued. “You didn’t think that you were her ... fan.”
- Music is sacred. She has an extraordinary voice. Besides ... She recently admitted to a drug treatment clinic over the past six months. It is worthy of respect. Not everyone can speak so openly about their problems. And human qualities play an important role. I like these people. And she is my favorite singer.
Jade didn't even know what to say. His revelations came as a surprise. Someone may interpret that. Rick thinks so ...
“Are you so serious about her fan?”
Honestly, Jade could not stand the fanatics. And the fact that he had a collection of her CDs did not reassure her, but, on the contrary, crossed out all those positive qualities that she had previously discovered in him. She was convinced in her own skin more than once how crazy people can be, sometimes fanatics. Recall at least one type who haunted her for almost six months and sent different letters with declarations of love and threats, until one day he made his way to her apartment and she filed a lawsuit. From the memories of that incident, she cringed. Although Rick did not look like a madman who would pursue her, but still since then she has developed a terrible allergy to fans. More precisely, she was just wary of them. With normal people not concerned about her, she liked to communicate.
“I even have an autograph,” said the man, then went to the closet and pulled out a white cap, on which some inscription and its signature were visible, and handed Jade.
Hell, he was once at her autograph session ?!
“You ... Have you met her in person?” Moore asked tensely, taking the cap in her hand.
“Hmm ...” Jade frowned, remembering. “A very familiar thing ...”
Having examined from all sides, Jade read an inscription written clearly by her hand: "To Richard, the best uncle from the beloved nephew of Noah and Jade."
“No, but when she had a concert in London a few years ago ...”
London…
Then Jade could not hear, lost in her memories ...
