Masquerade

"May I help you?" I asked the strange woman, who was now sitting by my side.

"No, actually, I'm here to help you." She responded, smiling.

I raised an eyebrow.

"I'm here to adopt you, silly!" Then woman said cheerfully.

"I don't even know you!" I responded, shocked.

"Well, I heard about your tragic incident, and I took interest into your case. Now, here I am, rescuing you from it all!" She continued in a cheerful voice.

"Who are you?" I asked a bit sassily.

"I'm Margaret Stevens, I work for Modest! Management and I help manage various different celebrities." She said proudly. "There, now you know me!"

Something told me this woman was up to no good.

"So, Margaret, you're adopting me?" I asked. "Prove it, where are the papers?"

She pulled a manilla envelope out of a brief case and set it on my lap. I picked them and and put them on the tray next to me, which I pulled over my lap.

I opened up the envelope and pulled out a few dozen papers.

"Seems legit," I said. "Wel, since it seems I have no other option, where do I sign?"

Two hours later I was dressed in a cardigan and jeans, the papers were all signed and I was leaving the hospital with Margaret.

Once out of the hospital, we caught a taxi in the busy Las Vegas streets and hopped in.

"Where are we going?" I asked.

"To pick up your clothes. Then we're flying to London."
