Hey guys. I came up with a new idea for a story and well... here I am!

Anyway, in this story for each chapter I'm going to try and start with a word/quote that either take my interest or kind of sums up the chapter.

BEWARE-there maybe some weird ones!

I would love it for you guys to comment your views-hopefully good and vote if you like it.

I'm going to shut up now and let you meet my story. See you!

"Hello, this is April King speaking. How may I help you?" I speak robotically into the phone for the nth time today.

"April, how many times do I have to ask you to get my calls sent directly to your office phone? Your assistant can talk for hours" my Mother reprimands. She sighs and I ask her the reason for the call.

"What are you calling for, Mother? I'm busy" I ask, exhausted from our conversation already.

"Well, my dear. You know that we have that Dinner with the Montgomery's next week and I just called to remind you to put it in your diary. I know how forgetful you can be when it comes to times and dates" she speaks exasperated.

"You couldn't have asked Alice?" I reply, confused.

"Darling, remember the last time I asked her to put something in your diary? That assistant of your is completely useless" my Mother explains.

Last time my Mother asked Alice, my personal assistant to put something in my diary was my sisters wedding and she completely forgot meaning that I also forgot to go to my own sisters wedding. My sister lives in Paris with her French husband, Francois so I wasn't involved in any preparations. I don't see my parents often and my Mother assumed that I would remember since she asked Alice to put it in my diary. So, of course this resulted in my sister hating me, to this day and my Mother despising Alice.

But, I know that the night before my Mother had rang, Alice and her long time boyfriend had broken up, he cheated.

Understanding, I let Alice off but my Mother and Sister are obviously hold grudges.

"Yes, Mother. I will add it to my diary. I must go, I have work to do" I reply and instantly hang up.

What was I doing?

Oh, yes! Finding the florist that the Henderson's asked to be booked for their wedding.

Before I can get back on with my work, there's a knock on my door.

After groaning, I say politely "Yes?"

"Miss King, there is a couple at the door wishing to see you. They're hoping for you to be their planner"

"Okay, Alice. Send them in" I reply, sighing and turning back to my computer, saving the current documents open just as two men enter my office.

One with dirty blonde hair wearing grey suit trousers and a navy shirt, the other with blonde hair wearing navy suit trousers and a black shirt. Both with black shoes.

"Hello, I'm April King. You can call me April and I'll be the one to plan your wedding if you choose to go with our company for our services" I repeat the general speech that I say to all the possible customers.
