Isabelle's pov

I just received an email from introspect... In summary, they can't afford to lose one of their best designers.

Since I mentioned in the mail I'll be relocating to Europe, they offered me a position as head designer in the European branch.

I don't know if I should take it or not.

I think I need to call Ms Smith.

She picks on the second ring.

"Hello Ms Smith."

"Hello Isabelle... How're you?"

I can imagine her multitasking.

"I'm very well thank you ma'am."

"I got your email, what do you say about the offer?"

Never one to waste time, I roll my eyes.

"Well, Ms Smith..."

"Just call me Margaret, all this Ms Smith is making me sick."

Grumpy much.

"Okay Margaret... Thing is even if I do take the job, I'm expecting a baby, I don't know if I'll be able to find a balance between the two."

"Omg Isa, that's good news... We can talk about the hours, you can work from home... I'm desperate okay?, I can't lose a talented designer like yourself, and as you know I don't pass out compliments freely... You will be head designer and your pay will be triple what you get here... Just think about it."

"Wow, uh okay, I'll get back to you... Thank you."

She hangs up!

That biatch!... She couldn't even say goodbye, what did I expect?

That's a really good opportunity.

I hit the girls up in our group chat and we agree on a video call.

I tell them my conversation with Margaret, and they were even more excited than I was.

They asked me to grab the opportunity.

I managed to talk Jess out of quiting, and she agreed.

So it is settled, I'm moving!

I'm really doing this!

**2 WEEKS LATER.**

"I'll miss you guys so much!"

It's a teary departure, here at the airpor, my hormones have been on overdrive lately.

Gladly my ob/gyn cleared me for travelling long distance.

Thankfully I didn't bump into Ray through out my last days here.

My bump has started showing, my skin is glowing too and I'm looking forward to this journey.

I'm more than prepared for the fresh start ahead of me.

"Please fasten your seat belts as we prepare for landing."

I hear the hostess say and I jolt awake and quickly fasten my seat belt.

Wow I'm here!... It's been 7 hours already? It sure felt like 30mins,or maybe I've been sleeping for a very long time, wow that was one long nap.

I get to arrival and I spot Bo easily among the people standing, waiting for their friends and family, it was easy because she has a distinguishing factor - her pink hair, the girl is still crazy!

I hurry to her with my suitcases... She engulfs me in a hug and takes my suitcase from me.

Bonnie is long for Bo, she's Nadia's cousin, we grew up together attending grade school and first year of middle school together till her family had to move to Europe because of her dad's job.

She's taller than me and her skin is a shade or two darker than Nadia, but she's not as dark as me.

We get to her car. It's vintage, a beaut!

She tells me about her job here, she's an artist, she paints and also does a little bit of photography, and she has done a few shows, showcasing her art.
