After school, I was on my way to the office. I was already not feeling well and had what seemed like a migraine but work needed to be done.

I was going to be looking to see if any clients who were still free were looking for real estate agents. Florien would still have to tag along with me if I were to find somebody who wanted to view a home, he always did the closing when it came down to them buying.

Not because I couldn't do it, but because he could tell Dad how everything went and that he was involved as well. I was going to have to speak with my dad again before I left today to tell him any progress that I've made and I was dreading it.

During the drive there my mind was just swamped with so many thoughts, of course, Josie was one of them and she was my favorite thought of them all. The only thought of mine that reminded me was that things would get better and that whatever I felt right now couldn't compare to what I'd feel when things were all said and done.

When I was happier, and when I would stay that way for more than a moment. The moment was whenever I saw or was around her. I was glad that everything worked the way it was supposed to, I knew that it was a weight lifted off of her shoulders.

I felt better as well about the situation, even though one thing was still bothering me. I was glad that Kobe wasn't in his depressive state any longer and I hoped that Issac could get Matt to help him out. But I don't know how I felt about him.

I know that he didn't know about Josie and me, I mean how we felt about each other but she told me that he does. In other circumstances I would have been glad that he knew, I would have felt relieved but that's not what I feel right now.

I questioned why he didn't make it known how he felt about her before she and I took things further. I felt like everything was just a game for him, and now I second-guessed if he really liked Britney the way he said.

If that was true, how could he tell Josie one thing and then her another? It was hard for me to understand what his true intentions were.

Or maybe he did really like Josie, I mean a blind man could even see how beautiful she was inside and out. But I couldn't lose her, I can't lose her.

When I got upstairs I headed straight to my office, well the one that I share with Florien. I grabbed the seat and sat down unlocking the computer. I went straight to our business email and began to search to see if we had anybody reaching out to us. I scrolled down to past emails that were sent yesterday afternoon and saw a woman named Alara.

Her email didn't give much information only that she was looking for a home to buy for her son and her, preferably a two-bedroom. I picked up the phone and dialed her number. It rang for a while and I didn't think she was going to answer so I was prepared to leave a voicemail.

"Hello?" A woman's voice spoke out on the other line.

"Good evening ma'am, I saw that you emailed Remington Estates in hopes of looking for a realtor?"

"Oh yes, I was who am I speaking with?"

"My name is Silas, I would love to help assist you in finding a home for you and your son. So I see here that you're just looking for a two-bedroom can we discuss your price range?"

"Okay, but I don't feel comfortable talking about personal information like this over the phone is there any way we can meet in person to be sure this isn't a scam or something."

"I understand, I would be more than happy to meet in person with you. But I can assure you that we are a functioning real estate business here in Orlando. The quicker that I know your price range I can start sending homes that are for sale to your email, and if there are any that pique your interest then I will go out with you to show you the home as well as my brother Florien."
