Chapter 22 Pick Me Up From The Airport

• The morning sun peeked through the curtains, casting a warm glow into Ira's apartment as she went about her morning routine. Just as she settled down with a cup of coffee, her phone rang, breaking the peaceful silence.
• Ira glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was her old friend Danielle Maroni. A smile tugged at her lips as she answered the call. "Hey, Dani! It's been ages. How are you?"
• Danielle's voice came through the line, filled with excitement. "Ira! I'm great, thanks. Listen, I'm in the city for a few days for a conference, and I was hoping we could catch up. Would you be able to pick me up from the airport?"
