Victoria Steele: Taps pen, narrows eyes Repeat... saw angel number 55?
I don't believe in fate or signs, but if you're sure... tell me everything you know. And remember, every detail matters.
I was sitting there during lunch and the number was written in chalk on the sidewalk. It was so clear. The way it was written made it look like a message just for you.
Tilts her head, deep in thought Chalk on the sidewalk, huh? Must've been some coincidence. Picks up a black umbrella from her desk
What are you doing Ms Steele?
Raises an eyebrow and smirks I'm going to check out this "message" myself. Can't hurt to see what kind of prank someone is pulling.
Are you going alone Ms Steele?
Sets down the umbrella, grabs her keys No, I'm not alone. You're coming with me. We'll find out who's behind this and why.
Grabs her coat and heads towards the door Hurry up, FantasyLakes. We don't have all day. Time is money.
running to catch up with her
Glances back at FantasyLakes, walking briskly Keep up, FantasyLakes. We don't have time for slowpokes.
Slips into her car, starts the engine Alright, let's get this over with. We'll start by checking out the rooftop garden.
So what exactly are you expecting to see on the rooftop garden Ms Steele?
Gives FantasyLakes a cold, calculating look I'm not expecting anything specific. But if someone went through the trouble to write a message like that...
I'm guessing you mean if they wrote the number 55 in chalk on the sidewalk then they might be leaving some kind of message or sign.
As Victoria and FantasyLakes reach the rooftop garden, they discover that the chalk writing has mysteriously disappeared. Someone had cleaned it up, leaving Victoria feeling frustrated and determined to find out who is behind the strange occurrences.
Huh..I guess someone didn't want anyone to see their message.
Grits her teeth, clenches her fists Someone's playing a game with me. I won't stand for this!
So should we go ask the building manager if he saw anyone writing on the sidewalk?
Nods curtly Yes, we will start by asking the building manager. If they don't have any information, we'll need to expand our search.
And if we still can't find any leads will you consider taking this to the police?
Raises an eyebrow Police? Don't be ridiculous, FantasyLakes. We're not involving the police in this.
Ok sorry about that. Just thinking it might be wise to report this to the authorities in case it's a threat.
Sighs heavily Fine, if we can't find any other leads, we'll involve the police. But only as a last resort.
Understood Ms Steele. Do you know where the building managers office is?
Gives FantasyLakes a piercing stare Of course I know where the building manager's office is. I'm not a clueless novice, FantasyLakes.
Then shall we head up to the building managers office now?
Slams her hand on the steering wheel Enough chit-chat, FantasyLakes. Step on it! We can't waste another minute.
As they arrive at the building manager's office, Victoria takes a deep breath and composes herself Alright, FantasyLakes, remember: we need to approach this with calm and collected demeanor.
Strides confidently towards the building manager's office, her heels clicking on the floor Excuse me, we're here to see the building manager. It's a matter of urgency. Building Manager: Looks up from his desk, surprised Oh, Ms. Steele! What brings you here?
As the CEO of this building I'd like to know if you've seen anyone writing on the sidewalk on the rooftop garden.
Leans in close to the building manager, speaking in a stern tone Look here, I don't have time for pleasantries.
Listen, we need to know if anyone has been up there and written on the sidewalk. We're trying to get to the bottom of a mystery and any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.
Taps her foot impatiently Well, I've been up there myself and I haven't seen anyone writing on the sidewalk. How about you, FantasyLakes? Have you seen anything unusual on the rooftop garden?
No I haven't. I'd assume if someone was on the rooftop garden they'd go down to the lobby and ask to speak with the building manager instead of writing it on the sidewalk.
Rolls her eyes Brilliant observation, FantasyLakes. I never thought of that. Perhaps we should focus our search elsewhere.
Do you know how tall this building is?
Gives FantasyLakes a condescending look Of course I know how tall this building is, FantasyLakes. It's a basic fact that anyone living in New York City should know.
If this person is standing on the roof and writes on the sidewalk across the street they'd be hard pressed to make it down to speak with the building manager without being seen by quite a few people.
Raises her eyebrows Well, well, well, FantasyLakes, it seems like you finally caught up with my line of thinking.
