I woke the next morning so confused as to why William was being so tender with me. The more I thought about it the more it confused me. There's only one person I need advice from. I rush down stairs and pick up my phone and dial a special someone's number
"Kia Ora"
"Mama" I whisper
"Anna bear what the hell is going on hm? Why you whispering. What has happened, I swear to all these Maori gods I will come there and-"
"Mama no I'm.. I'm just confused"
"About? Anna please tell me before I have a heart attack!"
I tell her about my job and boss as well as those times me and the girls went out and everything up until last night
"Oh. Well my child. Um" she clears her throat. "First off, I am happy Michael and his handsome friends dragged you naughty girls away. Not the menchin twice young lady! Thought I raised you better than that"
"Yes Mama" I whisper
"As for that other thing. Honey just let it be, the universe flows many ways. Don't try to control how it flows okay. You are young so go out and have your first of everything but still. Keep it traditional he must always make the first move since you've never been in this situation, that includes your first heartbreak"
"But Mama things have changed, girls don't want to wait for the man anymore"
"Yes I suppose that's true, if you are confident enough to take that risk then do it. If not then you wait, even if you have to wait forever"
"Thank you Mama"
"Your welcome baby, now tell me where is my son hm? He not answering his phone."
"I'm not sure, but I will give him an ear full when I see him next"
"Okay baby, now get to it and take lots of rest before your trip Monday"
"Thanks and I will. Bye"
"Arohanui" (sending me love)
I feel so much better after that talk, I will take her advice and let everything flow

Its now later in the evening and I'm on the sofa watching comedy stuff when my phone rings
"Michael?"
"Yes hello sugar, what are you doing?"
"Watching tv what are you doing?"
"Just checking up on ya"
"Oh yeah! You talk to your mother lately Michael hm? She quite up set that you haven't been answering her calls. She even threaten to come here!"
"Sorry. I will call her in a minute"
"Okay"
"So have you packed everything you need?"
"Yes I have everything don't worry"
"I won't be able to see you before you leave"
"Michael its okay and don't worry I will be fine, I'm sure Mr Dawson will look after me if not his men will"
"Yeah. Yes! Okay well I'll be waiting for you when you get back okay. Be safe Sugar"
"I will, bye"
