Gemma and Jenny lay in bed staring up at the ceiling needing a moment of silence after hours of early mornings calls this company board members from both Ivo Tech and Kord Industries. This was all knew to both Gemma and Jenny they both had no idea how big companies were run. Not to mention that everyone considered them two naive girls that didn't know what they were doing.
"I'm still exhausted." Jenny muttered.
"I don't even know where to start." Gemma replied looking up at the ceiling wishing that she could just go back to sleep and pretend the last couple of days didn't happen. But there was still so much that they needed to do and take care of that any kind of real rest seemed impossible.
Jenny groaned as she sat up knowing that they couldn't waste anymore time staring up at the spieling and feeling sorry for themselves. "Well, I need to go to my apartment and change. I'll meet you at Ivo Tech in two hours?"
Gemma nodded as she also sat up ignoring the headache that was slowly creeping in. She had pushed through sleepless nights before but this was different. "Yeah see you soon."
It was only 8:30 in the morning when Gemma slipped out go the house, the Reyes were all still asleep and after everything they deserved to rest well. She knew that they had a lot on their plate too with funeral preparations and dealing with what was left of their home so she tried to make as little noise as possible as she left. Now she waited anxiously for Javier to come to the front with the car. All the cars were parked in the garage that was located a little ways off from the main house.
Her ringing phone snapped her out of her thoughts, but she felt her heart stop at Tom's name on the screen. He had been calling and sending her messages since she left and initially she had been ignoring him but after she simply hadn't found herself willing to deal with him. But there was only so much that she could put off answering his calls.
"Tom." Gemma said answered not entirely sure how angry he would be with her.
"Gemma." Tomsaid sounding surprisingly relieved that she had answered. It was a relief to know that he wasn't angry or at least he was being gracious enough to wait and be angry with her. "You haven't answered any of my calls. I've been really worried."
