    sat down first, and then Gabriel. His arm brushed against hers. The distance between their chairs was next to nonexistent, but at least the seats were comfortable. “Have you ever been to an opera before?” Rachel asked, deciding to make conversation. “Yes, a few times.” “Did you enjoy it?” He didn’t know how to answer her. The only reason why he had ever gone to these events was because of his ex-girlfriend (the one he had almost married). “Depends on the type of opera, I guess,” Gabriel answered. He had seen the operatic performance of Don Giovanni before, and it wasn’t his particular favorite. Rachel turned to him, staring into his engaging eyes. “Thank you,” she paused, “for coming tonight.” “I didn’t have any other plans.” His smile was subtle. It felt nice to see him in better spirits, Rachel thought. All through the day she had been extra conscious to make sure she completed her work with no errors. After every bathroom break, she had made sure to double check the contracts before taking them to his office so that the same “mistake” did not reoccur.

The performers were dressed in colorfully elegant costumes that represented fashion in the baroque era. The audience sat in admiration as Don Giovanni began to sing in Italian; an expert Baritone. Rachel raised her opera glasses and peered through the lenses. Gabriel smiled faintly. His eyes were mostly on Rachel through the first few minutes of the show. If Heaven had a fragrance, then it smelled like the intoxicating perfume that Rachel had sprayed on. ~oOo~ Once halfway through the fifth scene in Don Giovanni’s ballroom, Gabriel began to reflect on his life. In some ways he could relate to the sex hungry Don. He too had a licentious appetite, and he rarely went to bed alone. There was always a warm body next to him, but these women were never able to melt his frozen heart. The orchestra was now performing Tomas Albinoni’s Adagio in G Minor, a soul riveting ensemble of violins that were soon accompanied by cellos. A skilled Soprano began to sing with such powerful emotion with the heartbreaking music. Rachel felt each note plucking at her heart strings, as if her most vital organ were a harp.
