Knock, Knock, Knock

"Come in." Inspector Margaret Thatcher, the new Chief Liaison Officer at the Canadian Consulate in Chicago, removed her glasses as her assistant Ovitz entered her office. "Yes, Ovitz."

"The personal files you requested from headquarters are here."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, ma'am."

Meg waited for Ovitz to leave before putting her glasses back on. The 1st file was that of her Deputy Liaison Officer, Constable Benton Fraser. She opened the file and gasped at the picture inside. He looked exactly like her jerk of a ski instructor, TJ Burke, from her trip to Aspen 6 months earlier. Their one-night stand had left her pregnant and with an STD. Luckily, antibiotics had taken care of the STD, but she had agonized for several weeks about whether or not to have an abortion. That decision was ultimately made for her when she miscarried. She had hoped to put that entire, stupid experience behind her, but how could she do that working side-by-side with his look alike?
