...United States of America December 1, 2012 Apple team member To our apple team member, First of all Apple wants to thank you for your focus, dedication and the great job that you have done so far this year. We recognize your efforts to represent our brand in the best way possible each and every year. As you all know, in September 2012 Apple launched a new mapping system for the new IOS6. We launched this new mapping system knowing it is a major initiative for Apple. Unfortunately, we fell short on our commitment with the launching of our new mapping system, causing many confusion and dissatisfaction between our customers. We are aware of this problem and we are immensely sorry for the stress and frustration this may have caused to your everyday job here at Apple. We are working hard to make the customer experience even better and within days of the IOS6 release we managed to fix items on the mapping with the right name at the right place. We will be seeking outside help from mapping-technology firms and we are urging maps provider Tom Tom to fix some of the mistakes in the current map. Meanwhile this problem is being worked on; it is still possible to try alternatives like downloading Bing, MapQuest, Waze, Google or Nokia maps. It is also important to know that the more customers use the mapping system on the new IOS6, the better it will get. We are addressing this problem actively and we are sure to have this matter established for our customers to have a better experience...

... CHAPTER ONE: "Chuck!" I stormed into the tattoo parlor eager to have my tattoo completed. "Is that you Jessica?" Chuck yelled from behind the purple velvet curtains. I grinned and spun around. "The one and only! you ready to finish my tattoo sweetcheeks?" my gaze slide over to the boys. The football players, they lazed around on the sofa's all laughing and slapping the number one, most wanted guy in shcool. Andrew. But now they stared at me, shock evident on their faces. Jade and Harper looked shocked as well, jaws slightly aslack. The one man that held my attention was Kyle, his grey eyes glared into mine filled with something sinfully dark I found myself gulping, his lips curled into a cruel smile and he scoffed before looking away. "Gimme ten minutes sweetheart. I'll be out soon just buy some food. Its on me!" Yes. I was starving. "You are darling Chuck! I'd marry you if I could!" I yelled back already hopping towards the phone on the counter. I called my favourite Kebab House and ordered a donner kebab. "You want anything Chuck?" I was well aware of the boys staring at me, there eyes trailing over my low cut, off shoulder crop jumper to my camel skort and then to my lace stockings down to my heeled sandals. My tattoes peaked out of the hem of my skirt, and I pulled off my gloves revealing the trbial marks tattoed on my hands. "Get me whatever your getting!" he yelled, I could hear to low hum from the tattoo stick and my body shivered in anticipation. I...

When she finishes, she pulls my hair away from my face and twists it into a knot. I note how calm she looks and how focused she is. She is well-practiced in the art...

...Yet there was something about her face and figure that reminded him of the girl he’d fallen in love with long ago. They’d gone their separate ways, and he had always mourned her, his angel, his muse, his beloved Beatrice. Without her, his life had been lonely and small. Now his blessedness appeared. As she approached him with her companions, he bowed his head and body in a chivalrous salute. He had no expectation that his presence would be acknowledged. She was both perfect and untouchable, a browneyed angel dressed in resplendent white, while he was older, world-weary and wanting. She had almost passed him when his downcast eyes caught sight of one of her slippers — a slipper that hesitated just in front of him. His heart beat a furious tattoo as he waited, breathless. A soft and gentle voice broke into his remembrances as she spoke to him kindly. His startled eyes flew to hers. For years and years he’d longed for this moment, dreamed of it even, but never had he imagined encountering her in such a serendipitous fashion. And never had he dared hope he would be greeted so sweetly. Caught off balance, he mumbled his pleasantries and allowed himself the indulgence of a smile — a smile that was returned to him tenfold by his muse. His heart swelled within him as the love he held for her multiplied and burned like an inferno in his chest. Alas, their conversation was all too brief before she declared that she must depart. He bowed before her as she swept by, and then straightened...
