* Later on that day
Amana's Pov
I finally finished Mr.Smith's living room designs.
He already had high ceilings and tall windows. My vision fitted perfectly with what he wanted.
I had added potted house plants.
I traded out the black furniture for white. I added a few decorative throw pillows that were blue.
Black side tables in the in-front of one another. I saw this picture at the warehouse and I decided to put it in Mr.Smith's home.
I'm on the phone with Mr.Smith right now.
He's been on a vacation since the renovations and today he's on his way back.
"Mr. Smith, Sorry to interrupt the vacation I called to you that your living room is ready to have a look at," I tell him. Even though he's a longtime client it's awkward to talk on the phone.
That's why sometimes I just tell my assistants to do it for me. I think I just have anxiety but I'm no doctor.
"Alright that's great news Clair, my plane just landed. I'll be there in 30 minutes." He says
He's not a creepy old guy. He's pretty sweet. He told me about a few weeks ago that He'll be visiting family and that it's a guy he has an eye on.
" I'll be here then, I just finished doing the small things. Perfect timing. I'll see you later Mr.Smith" I told him hanging up the phone.
*20 minutes later
I hear the door, As I was explaining to my team that I'll see them next week because I'll be on break but working from home.
"Okay, I'll see you all next week. Fabio on Monday, You and I will be at my house since I'm going to need you."I announced and they all nodded.
They started to all walk out.
I heard Mr. Smith.
" Clair Dear, I'm here let's see what you have for me." Mr.Smith said.
" Mr. Smith, Nice to see you again, and how was your trip," I asked.
"It nice seeing the children and grandchildren but overall excited to see my living room made by the best." He says smiling.
" Why thank you, Mr.Smith, Let me show you the room now. I think you'll love it." I tell him. He follows behind me.
" Well it's beautiful Clair, Thank you so much again, I'll mail the check to your company." He says
"No problem, It's my job to make my clients happy," I tell him. Gathering my things to leave.
My employees already know how I run my business. when I'm not there to keep things together.
I trust them but not to the point where they get comfortable and try to cross

*Next night
I'm at home watching this series called lost in space it's good I binged it for about three hours.
As the next episode was about to start I hear my doorbell ring. I look at my ringer and see it's from a flower delivery.
Confused because I don't buy myself flowers until next month. Which is unusual.
