Clay's Pov~

Today I am over at Ray's house to sit down with him and Naima.

I climb out of my car and walk up to the front door and knock and a few seconds later Naima opens the door.

" Ray, Clay is here." Naima says calling for ray

After a few minutes Ray walks into the kitchen and sits down at the kitchen table.

" Clay, Ray told me that you completely renovated the house you and Emma will be living in once you are married?" Naima asks me

" Yes, Ma'am. It is." I tell Naima

" How long did it take you to complete it?" Naima asks me

" It took me a few years to get it completely finished." I tell Naima

" How long are would this renovation last?" Ray asks me

" It all depends on what you would like for me to do." I tell them

" We talked it over last night and we decided to go with the kitchen, living room and the kids bathroom." Naima tells me

" What do you want done in the kitchen?" I ask Naima

" I would like for the layout to change. I would also like more counter space." Naima tells me and I start to draw out what I could make it look like

" This is not the final drawing. Is there anything here that you would like to add?" I ask

" That is my dream kitchen." Naima tells me

" On to the living room." Ray says

" We want it to be painted to a warm cream colour, and have a few pops of yellow but a different colored couch." Naima says while ray agrees

" Are you wanting to change the flooring in here or stick with carpet?" I asks them

" What do you recommend?" Ray asks me

" Since you have two young children and they are both pretty active I'd suggest a durable laminate flooring." I tell them

" Now to the kids bathroom." Naima tells me

" We want to do a jack and Jill type bathroom." Ray tells me

" There is an empty space between the Jameelah's room and the bathroom." Ray tells me

I pull out one of my tools and I put it against the wall and I see 4 feet of empty space.

" What do you want to do for the bathroom?" I ask

" We would like for the bathtub and the toilet to be on the same wall and for the sink to be on the other." Naima tells me

" I can do that. Do you want to redo the floor in here?" I ask

" Yes. We do. What type of flooring would recommend in here?" Ray asks me

" I would recommend using a strong long-lasting tile in here. Something that you won't have to worry about replacing in 5 years." I tell them

" From what you have seen right now how long of a time line are we looking at." Naima asks me

" I'd say about 3-4 weeks." I tell them

" That's shorter than I was expecting." Naima tells Ray

" Was the layout of the house like this when you bought the house?" I ask Ray

" Yes. It was. Why?" Ray asks me

" Because whoever redid this house did not do it correctly." I tell him
