Anthony
It had been a few months since our appointment with the fertility specialist and Shante was still pressing the fact that she wanted to adopt kids. I didn't see that happening in my future. It may be selfish but I don't want to go that route.
"Mr. Piers you have a call on line two." My assistant Veronica said over the speaker phone and broke my train of thought.
"This is Anthony Piers." I said into the receiver of the phone.
"Hello Mr. Piers this is Derek Morgan I got your contact information from a coworker of mine that said you could help me find a home. I'm new to the area and would like to come in and talk about some options."
"Of course Mr. Morgan I have an available appointment tomorrow at noon." I said flipping through my calendar.
"Perfect. Thank you, see you then." I hung up the receiver and made note of the appointment in my calendar. It was almost five and it was time for me to head home for the day. I grabbed my briefcase and locked down my computer and headed home.

Shante
It was a little after five and I was packing up ready to leave work, I had put in a long fifteen hour shift at work and it seemed like I couldn't get out fast enough. I locked down my computer and grabbed my workbag. About to go out the door. The knock at my door changed my entire mood.
"Please Lord let this visit be short and sweet. Amen. Come in." I said dryly.
Derek Morgan the new Chief of Surgery walked into my office. He just moved to the City from Atlanta. I couldn't help but admire how attractive he is. He stood six foot even light skin and had short curly hair, his green eyes added to his appeal.
"Headed home for the day I see." He said taking more steps into my office. He walked over to my desk and picked up a picture of Anthony and I.
"Yes. How was your first day here, I hope we were good to you." I said picking up my bag and putting it on the floor.
"Your boyfriend?" He asked turning the picture in my direction.
"Husband." I said flashing the beautiful black diamond I wore on my ring finger.
"Damn girl!" He laughed. "Now I'm embarrassed, I wanted to invite you to dinner tonight." He said rubbing his hand across his chin.
I smiled. " My husband wouldn't like that to much." I chuckled a little. "I'll see you tomorrow Dr. Morgan. Have a good night." I picked up my bag and walked out my office.

Derek
I stood feeling stupid in Shante's office for a second. Something about her made me want her, she was beautiful. We met earlier this morning at a meeting and she told me if I needed anything that her door would always be open for me. I'm gonna see just how serious she was when she said that. I picked up a piece of paper and scribbled a note on it and left not on her computer screen and left her office. I always get what I want and I was determined to make Shante mine.

I left the hotel that I have been staying in to go meet a real estate agent about buying a house. Living inn this hotel is bull.
I waited in the lobby of the real estate agency for Anthony Piers to call my name. After about five minutes of waiting a dark skin man approached me.
"Derek Morgan? Hello, my name is Anthony Piers you can follow me to my office." I got up and followed the man to his office. His office office was a nice size, he had pictures of his family and plaques of his accomplishments on the walls. He was a known overachiever.
