2. A Star. A David Star.
She reached out for the package as if to tear it out and see what was inside. But he caught her hand in time.
"Ah, ah, not here. This is his town, remember. He has eyes and ears everywhere. Come, let's go, I will drive you."
———
They drove in silence.
The radio chatter cut through the silence. The presenter was talking about music and was cheerful, but Mira wasn't feeling it. She couldn't wait to see the piece Alex had brought her. Finally, in twenty minutes that seemed a year, they arrived at her apartment.
The evening breeve greeted her as he alighted from his car.
"Take care now. Don't do anything I won't do." Alex said.
"Well, at least, can I drink some Morrocan Vodka?"
Alex smiled.
"I would do that."
"Are you sure you don't want to come inside?"
"Nah. I've got other things to do and I don't want to be late. I am trying to shed that reputation, you know. And besides that..." He pointed at her coat where she had hid the package. "It's for your eyes only."
"Okay, take care then."
"Okay. See ya." he said and zoomed off.
She came up the stairs into a well lit apartment. Of course, she used to live in a mansion in the outskirts of town, but now a boring apartment in the busiest part of life is all she could afford.
She fumbled with the key for a while before she opened the door. As soon as the door opened, Jasper, a British short-hair, jumped on her.
"J for jasper, how are you buddy, did you miss me? I bet you did."
The cat purred as she rubbed her head, and it jumped off to her little adorable plate.
"You're hungry? Me too. I will fix you something real quick."
The cat jumped at the food as it poured in his plate.

After she settled the cat, she grabbed a let over sandwich from the fridge and sat on the bed. She reached out for the package and tore the seal around it.
The package contains three 6 by 9, pictures and a little plastic pass.
Mira pulled the lamb close to herself and examined the pictures.
All three pictures had Kade Valenti in it at different events.
A closer look will reveal, however, that he was wearing the same attire surrounded by his entourage. In all the pictures, it is also one man, a middle age, a balding man. Mira had never seen him before, but he seemed to be very close to Kade.
Mira looked even closer.
In the background, there is a star. It was very blurry, but surely it looked definitely like a David's star.
On the back of the pictures, there was an instruction in Alex's writing.
Like the three wise man, follow the star.
Mira arched her head, wondering what that could mean.
She looked at the plastic pass. It was a pass to a private party downtown, and this pass admits only one.
Only when she brought it closer to her face did she see it..
An inscription on the edge of the plastic.
A star.
A David star.
That is it!
Alex has done it.
She has a ball to attend, a star sturded party.
