"Herman, I'm home," Abigail gleefully said.
"Please come in, Abigail Goldman and her friends," Herman answered.
"Wow, this is such a beautiful penthouse. It's like one of those cribs featured in Vanity Fair," Sarah observed.
"Herman, activate the hologram of Goliath Jones," Abigail said.
"Hello. My name is Goliath Jones."
"My name is Sarah Albright."
"Nice to meet you Sarah Albright. What would you like to know about me?"
"How do you manage to be so charming and funny?"
"The same way you do."
"Goliath Jones, why do people like to watch you? What is it about you that is so interesting that people pay money to watch you act?"
"You shouldn't ask him questions like that. He gets confused easily," Abigail interrupted.
"Would you like to see Google Sky?" Abigail continued.
"I would love to."
Stars began to fly past Abigail and Sarah. Sarah felt like she was skiing down a slope except at a much faster speed.
"Where are we going?" Sarah asked.
"I'm not quite sure. Herman put us on autodrive. Do you know that the universe is always expanding?"
"No. I didn't know that."
"Destination Saturn," Abigail said.
"Saturn."
"Isn't it beautiful? Look at those rings."
"It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen."
"Nirvana Herman."
Everything returned to the new normal.
"That was quite an introduction," Claire stated.
"Alright. It's late. Let's go to sleep. You two can get acquainted when I am at work tomorrow."
"Goodnight Claire," Abigail said.
"Goodnight Claire," Sarah repeated.
Abigail gave Claire a peck on the cheek, then did Sarah. Sarah's kiss felt a bit empty.
