Sasha strutted her way around the community center in high heels, a trendy overpriced handbag dangling from her forearm.

“My God, this place…” the high-end party planner complained. “Have we no other options?”

“The owner did say the place might be… preoccupied,” the assistant added.

Sasha paused, her wheels spinning.

“Well, this is a Halloween party… let’s just go with it.”

Always thinking. Always adapting. Always the consummate professional.
