She saw him blend with the crowds at Karuna market. His scent lost in the maelstrom of smells rising from grills, ovens, stoves, stalls, and the countless perfumed bodies that mingled in the outdoor market.

Nikki reached up and pressed her right earlobe between thumb and forefinger.

"Hey baby," Anna said, "what up?"

"Oh you know, just doing a bit of shopping at Eden."

"Do tell."

"Found a smart outfit, but the mannequin ran off with it."

"You kidding! A freeman?" Anna laughed delightedly.

"Didn't see a ring on his finger," said Nikki.

"Ooo, a bad boy. Did you catch him?"

"He gave me the slip, which is why..."

"You need a trace?"

"Only a teeny-tiny one."

"Consider it done, but only if you promise to tell me everything."

"I'm not going to hurt him. Well, maybe a little scratch."

"Grrrrll! I can't wait to hear all about it," Anna said and disconnected.

Nikki stood there watching the crowds move as in a slow dance. Faint neon lines outlined their bodies. All green except for the red one moving due North.

"Thank you, Anna," she murmured and quickly joined the crowd.
