"Hey Jen. Yes i am and you wouldn't believe decided to leave a note on my damn truck!"
"Who?"
"Justin! Why won't he leave me alone?! I literally am thinking about selling this house already and moving to LA where the new beauty bar will be."
"I will have your attorney serve him with a restraining order and I have good news about the location of the LA beauty bar!"
"Thank God Jen. Tell me the news!"
I get into my truck and begin to drive to the beauty bar.
"Okay. So we have secured the two story building in Hollywood. It's the building that you liked the most and once they found out it was you, the owner of the building decided to decrease the price and you literally only paid one thousand dollars for the building!"
"WHAT!? SHUT Up! NOW!"
"Yes! He is suppose to come by the beauty bar today at one pm. So be ready!"
"OMG! I need to stop by a store and pick up an outfit because I am super casual today!"
"Okay! Well you only have one client and she wont be in until 3! She is a bride and will be doing her trial run at the bb(this will mean beauty bar for the rest of the story). She will be getting her hair and makeup done by you, nails done by Angela, pedi by Lexi. So after your meeting you can jump back into your casual clothes boss lady."
"Okay Jen. I am pulling up to the mall now. I should be at the bb in an hour."

I go inside and walk into my favorite store! I walk around and find the perfect outfit! I check out and head to the bb.
I pull up to the bb and head inside. I walk in and find flowers on my desk with a note.

I smile and go to my bathroom to freshen up and change.

This nice looking older man walks into my office and Jennifer closes the door.
"Hello! I am ADE. It is a great pleasure to finally meet you Willow."
"Nice to meet you as well Mr. Ade."
"Please just call me Ade. I am pleased that you were fascinated by my building. It was one of my first properties I bought once I came to America."
"Really? That is amazing. Where are you from?"
"I am from Nigeria. I came here for school at the age of 18. I earned my real estate license first. With that, I went to law school. I studied to become a real estate lawyer and criminal lawyer. I also own one of the top Real estate companies in the country."
"Wow that is amazing! So can you tell me more than the realtor could about your property?"
"Ahhh! Yes! I would love to do this over lunch. Is that okay?"
"Actually it is. I will let my assistant know and I will meet you at the restaurant of your choice."
"I was thinking you could ride with me Ms. Willow."
"Oh. Okay then. Let me notify my assistant."
I walk over to Jen and then I follow Ade to the car.
We arrive at Le Fante and Ade helps me out of the car. We sit in a booth.
"So Willow, tell me about yourself."
"Well I am 27, I own my own hair company, product line, and I am an author. I have a beautiful daughter named Alexa. She is 5 and so adorable."
"What about your parents?"
"Well i was raised by my grandmother. My mom and I recently rekindled our relationship and it has been amazing. She was in and out of my life since I was a child."
"Oh, I am sorry. You look just like your grandmother on your father's side."
"Um excuse me? How would you know how she looks? I don't even know anyone from my father's side. I don't even know my father."
"I would know because."
He looks at me with tears in his eyes and exhales.
