                      Lilies Resort Hotel
Evelyn and Maclean started their renovation of the hotel. They were soo excited the hard work of his mother wasn't going to vain. The workers began their work after a grand meeting.
     Maclean came to his office but Evelyn left as she had to enrol her son in a new school. He was 2 years so she wanted to start working again. Evelyn wasn't dependent on her husband, she saved all his money for her son's future. She's a great wife and a mother.
                      GLEAR FURNITURES
Anna and Cephas arrived at the company, the staffs welcomed them warmly. Her aunt Clara arrived to give her support to her niece.
Clara:  You guys need to relax, I know the company will do just fine in your care. A graduate in business and a skilful teacher, I trust you.
Cephas:  This is not my first time working here, I followed uncle everyday as an apprentice. Now being the manager won't change anything.
Anna:  I guess with you around I'm okay. [ they all smiled.]
   They showed them around and finally their office. Miss Clara left then. Cephas and Anna stared at each other and broke into laughter.
Anna:  I guess I'm not the only seeing how funny this is. Annabella Jackson owns a company.
Cephas:  A whole office of our own, wow... we evolved. [ they had a hi five, her secretary knocked and entered]
Flora: Hello ma'am, I'm Flora and your personal secretary. [ Anna shared a handshake with her ]
Anna:  Nice to meet you Flora. [ Cephas just stared at her ]
Cephas:  I never imagined you'll still be working here after soo long Flora. [ she looked on ] Wood work is my passion and a gift from above. [ she laughed]
Flora:  Cephas... [ she embraced her ] wow... look at you, it's been soo long and you still remember me.
Cephas:  The only annoying friend I had in  GLEAR, not easy to forget you.  I can see you managed to move from the workshop.
Flora:  Yeah I became the supervisor then straight to secretary, I did a great job.
Anna:  I'm still here lovers, please cut the drama.
[ they decided to talk more after work, Flora excused herself. They started their work too as orders had been made for some furnitures they had to work on]
             Jackson's Residence
Anna and Cephas arrived home, they seemed to be very tired. Mondy and Louisa looked on.
Mondy:  How was your first day, you look like you're out from water.
Louisa:  Exactly like mum and dad.
Cephas:  We had fun trying to be matured just that we're tired from going round the place to check on the workers which is not our job.
Anna: I didn't want to stay idle, I would have helped if I knew wood work. See how old people worked hard at the workshop.
Mondy:  Stop being emotional, you're the boss. Stay strong for your workers and you're good to go.
Cephas:  Exactly, staying in your office and signing contracts is a great job.
Anna:  It's boring, at least at Osman's I had mates around to talk to.
Louisa:  But he's there to talk to.
Anna:  Who?This? I bet you don't know. He reunited with his long lost girlfriend and all his attention is on her. Though she's my secretary but always around him.
Mondy:  Oh I see, someone is in love huh!
Louisa:  I can come work with you if you want.
Anna:  No, not in your condition now.
Cephas:  What condition? [ they stared at each other's faces as he waited on]
     They told him everything when they had dinner but his reaction was different. He was extremely happy that he was going to be an uncle. Mondy suggested Anna agreed to her working with her. She staying inside always will weaken her. She was only few weeks pregnant though Anna treated her as if her month was due. After some few lectures from the family nurse, she agreed to it.
