"Ms. Avelina. The boss would like to see you in his office" John called out.
"Oh... Was he upset?" She asked with worry.
"No no he is never upset for you" said John
She just rolled her eyes.
"Oh okay" she said getting up.
"If I was you. I would've jumped on him a long time ago" said John
"John please" and with that she rushed to his office.
"Please take a seat." He said and she took a seat. "We as RA corp would like to fund in Grace School"
Grace School. That was where her daughter is. One of the expensive schools in the whole country.
"But Grace School is fully complete. I don't think it needs any funding" said Avelina
"You seem to know a lot about Grace School" said Mr. Rossi
"My daughter goes there" said Avelina
"That is so expensive how can you afford that" asked Mr. Rossi suspiciously
"Oh I inherited from my mom and used it for good" said Avelina. A lie she had been living with whenever people asked how she managed her daughter and herself at the same time.
"Ohh I see. Well we are funding in them because they are lacking a bit so they need someone to help them carry with their stand. I know this is short notice but I need you to wear your best tomorrow because we are cutting the red ribbon as everything has already been settled" said Mr. Rossi.
"Ohh" that was all she could say.
"You can bring Ashley too and your daughter will also be there" said Mr. Rossi. "You are excused. Leave early so you can rest. Maybe in 30 minutes" and with that Avelina got to her office and started packing up. She took Ava at the kid's section.
They got home and Ashley was singing with her earphones on at the kitchen whilst cooking.
Ava quickly went to hug her from the back which made her jump out of being scared. Scarring Ava in the process.
"What the fu-" she turned to see Ava "you scared the sh...the hell outta me."
"I am sorry I was trying to surprise you" said Ava feeling guilt.
"No baby just next time please don't. You will make me have a heart attack" she said
"That is why you lock doors when you are alone with music." Said Avelina.
"You are early" said Ashley
"I know. Let me help" with that Avelina took off her heels and gave them to Ava to put them
"Ava. I made you food" shouted Ashley.
Ava liked food so does her mom and Ashley herself. Guess it runs in the family.
"Thank you" she said taking the food. It was hotdogs. One of her favourite.
She gobbled it all up and went to put the dish on the sink.
"I have to go and study for my spelling bee" said Ava accidently
"Spelling bee?" Asked Avelina and Ashley
"Sweetheart what are you talking about?" Asked Avelina
"Ooops nevermind. You will see tomorrow" and with that she ran off.
"Umm tomorrow there is an event at Grace School and apparently RA is part of it. Please come" begged Avelina.
"Ehh when like the time" asked Ashley
"Rossi said 9 and you know how strict he is with time" said Avelina.
"Fine I will be there. Have you picked something to wear?"
"No Ash I wanted to pick it with you"
"So after here we are going to choose a dress. Put Ashley to sleep. Pick a dress. Get a bottle of wine. Gossip then sleep"
"No bottle and only 2hrs of gossip" said Avelina.
"You owe me 2 bottles after this" joked Ashley.
"I know and I am sorry." Replied Avelina
*******************************
"You are glowing" said Avelina suspiciously with a glass of wine in her hand
"Please" said Ashley
"So the guy. Are you ever going to see each other again" asked Avelina
Ashley was tipsey. She was on and off as they had been drinking. Ashley had 3 glasses and Avelina was stuck on 1 aiming for 2.
"Well he came to the library. I didn't even know him" said Ashley
"You kissed a guy you don't even know!" Shouted Avelina
"You had sex with someone you don't even know. I mean even got his child" said Ashley with a comeback
"Atleast I knew he was a billionaire" said Avelina
"Atleast I got his wallet" said Ashley.
"On a kiss?" Asked Avelina unbelievably
"Well he kinda like left it at the library" she said
They looked at each other.
"You thinking what I am thinking?" Asked a bit tipsey Ashley
"Call him?" Asked Avelina stating the obvious
"I had a much more boring idea but yaah." And with that she took her phone and wallet.
They typed his number on Ashley's phone. It got picked up on the first ring
"What?" Was the reply.
"Didn't think you would be this rude to someone who you kissed" said Avelina
"Sssshhhhhhhhhhh what in the hell" said Ashley
"Who is this?" Asked Pablo much more serious.
"Wrong who are you?" Asked Avelina
Silence.
"Pablo Rossi." Avelina read out "Hey you have the same surname as my boss. The owner of RA."
Pablo chuckled as he knew that the owner of RA is his brother.
"One last time who is this?" He asked.
"Maybe if you ask nicely I will tell you" said Avelina
"Bullshit. May I ask who is this?" Said a much more angry Pablo.
"Well you are talking to...." Avelina was cut short by a bit-drunk Ashley
"Avelina" she said
"No Ashley" argued Avelina
"Noo Avelina" argued Ashley
"Ashley?" Questioned Pablo
"Who is Ashley. I don't know who Ashley is. I am Pablo" replied Ashley
"Do you want to come to my house, right now. I am with my sister and my neice is sleeping so we can have fun" said Ashley
"Bye Pablo. Please take your wallet with you next time and stop leaving it at the library" said Avelina and with that they hung up.
As soon as they hung up they both giggled.
"That...."started Ashley
"Was..." Carried Avelina
"Crazy!!" They both said.
"You are almost drunk. You need to look perfect for tomorrow." Said Avelina.
She left Ashley to her room whilst she showered. Lights were off and after the shower she felt cooler and more sober. She go out of the shower and went to her bedroom. Lights were off there. She switched on her lights and was about to get dressed when she was stung by seeing the man she kissed a couple of hours ago.
"Oh My Gosh what are you doing here?" Asked Ashley
