Chapter Thirty-Nine - Unexpected Meeting

Cadence POV

"There is a conference in Atlanta on Wednesday, I know it is short notice but I would like Cadence to attend. The flight leaves tomorrow morning and the conference is over on Friday," Mr. Barrett said. I was surprised.

"The observation report you turned in last week was excellent. The patient gave you an excellent review and the staff also said you did a great job. The conference deals with ER Wait times and how to reduce them. I think you could bring back excellent recommendations. I think you will represent us well. All expenses paid and all you have to do is report to the board your findings at the next board meeting. You are excused to go home and pack," he said.

Wow. I didn't know what to say.

"Thank you Mr. Barrett. I don't know what to say."

"Keep up the good work and you will go far." The rest of the group gave me the eyes of death. I got up and headed to my car. I called Marci.

"Hello," she said.

"Hey it's Cadence. I have to go to a conference tomorrow through Friday. I'm leaving for Atlanta for my internship. Can we meet in an hour and go over everything since I will be gone?

"Yea, that will work, I will see you then." I hung up and walked to my car. An hour later I was meeting with Marci. After eating we called Lilly with the updates. She said that she would not be attending the ball. Marci and I were both shocked that she wasn't coming.

"Cadence you will be the Mistress of Ceremonies. Marci will handle the girls, and Langston will control entrance to the basement. I want drivers to pick up the girls one hour before the guests arrive. Every girl should be checked in and every guest must show invitation. I will not have an unattended guest running around, understand?"

Marci and I both said "yes." I couldn't believed she was giving me this responsiblity. I was already nervous.

"Are you sure Lilly? Maybe Marci or someone else should do it."

Marci said," you will be fine Cadence. It's simple and I will give you what you need to say."

"I agree with Marci, you will take my place it will be fun. Plus I owe you," she said.

I looked at Marci and then I looked at the speaker.

"What do you mean you owe me?"

"General Ty. He has a small personality. I wanted you to see the difference. No feelings in and out. Next time there is an issue, you need to talk to me. I can't help you if you don't tell me when there is a problem."

I put my head down. I knew it! She did punish me. "Lesson learned," I said.

"You are free to go and have a safe trip," Lilly said. I picked up my things and headed off. I got home and packed. I called my sisters and told them I was leaving. They had stayed with Emily this past weekend since her niece was in town. They said they would just stay at Emily's house for the rest of the week.

My phone begin to ring. I looked down and saw Evan's number. I took a deep breath. He had worn me out this past weekend. My thighs still pained me, but it was a good pain.

"Hello Evan."

"Did I call at a bad time?"

"I was just packing?"

"Going on a trip?"

"You could say that."

"Why so short Cad? Did I do something wrong?"

"No, just tired."

"Well I will let you go."

"Evan will you be in the office tomorrow?"
