Roosevelt Kitchen.

With everyone preparing the ingredients for the night course, Josie had a difficult time trying to work with her junior who turned out to be Asher. Since he came in with Mason, she had voiced out her opinion that she didn't want Asher to be her junior judging from the times she had met with him, but Mason told her she didn't have a choice since she was the one that requested for a junior to work with. Asher had also asked for someone else to work under but everyone told him they had a partner, even Rose who would have loved to drop Mason as her partner and Isabella who would have done the same.

However, the stern look on Josie's face gave them a message. Whatever reasons Josie must be rejecting Asher for, they weren't ready to interfere. Out of curiosity, they both asked them if they knew each other but the two of them denied flatly. Josie had later decided to work with him stating that it was because she had no choice.

    Hernandez GroupAfter a long working day, Chazz called Rachel, his secretary to ask about what he asked her to find out. Bracing herself up, Rachel walked into his office to give the information she had. Finding out information about the names he gave her wasn't an easy thing to do especially with the fact that they both returned back to the country recently, however, she knew she had to report back to Chazz. Not only because she was trying to get on his good sides but because she also had feelings for him and she was still at the verge of verifying if he felt the same way for her."What have you found out?""I'm still on it." She replied. "Phoebe Hernandez is currently in the country and she is a licensed doctor. She'll start as a resident from tomorrow.""Which hospital?""Theodore Medicals.""Not that close to this place. Alexander? What about him?""I haven't been able to get any leads on Alexander Hernandez. His whereabouts, whether he's in the country or not, I have no idea, bu

He asked worriedly. "Are you hurt?""Do I look like someone who is hurt?" Jared chuckled lightly as he stared at his concerned brother.Asher had always been like that. Even though he wanted to hide it so bad, it still showed how much he cared for his close relatives. Calming down, he studied Jared, "No, you look fine. If nothing is wrong, why then did you call me like that asking for help? How can you call someone like that when there's nothing wrong?""How did I call you?" Jared asked with raised eyebrows, the. he scoffed. "I only told you I needed your help and that you should come over here.""And I came running here, thinking something happened to you. Anyways, since you're fine, it's a relief. What do you need my help for then?" Asher snapped back at him. He had left what he was doing and

    Josie rushed over to where Noah was, but getting to the entrance, she hesitated to enter as she watched Noah for a few minutes. She had stopped by Isabella's place to tell her about what she planned to do. It was the first time she'll be having a drink with Noah ever since she had a crush on him and she planned on telling him about her feelings."Do you think this is the right time?" Isabella had asked her."It doesn't matter if I do it now. I would have to do it one day." She had replied.Finally able to gather the courage to enter, she approached him and stood in front of him until he asked her to sit. Josie felt very anxious as she watched Noah pour her a drink. Noticing the sweat on her hands, Noah could tell she was very anxious. Sighing, he tried to think of a way to make her feel better."Will you eat rice cakes?"Still feeling very anxious, she hid her hands underneath the table, glancing at the drink in front of her and then at Noah."Sorry I came late." She apologized."It's

    Josie's Apartment.Very early the next morning, Josie stood up to prepare for the day's work. Walking into the bathroom, she stood in front of her mirror only to notice how rough her hair was. "When last did I wash this hair?" She asked herself as she picked up her toothbrush and toothpaste.Sighing, she opened the tap and started brushing her teeth and all of a sudden, she stopped."Hey! Josie! Why do you have to drink before you go? Stop drinking now!" She heard Isabella's voice in her head."Ah, what was that?" She asked, hitting her head with her other hand. "Stop it now, Josie. Drinking won't help at all." Isabella's voice continued."I have to tell him today. He finally called me out." She heard herself reply.Washing her face, she sighed as she remembered taking a few drinks when she went to see Isabella before meeting with Noah the previous night. "Did I get drunk?" Shaking her head vigorously, she proceeded to take her bath. Few minutes later, she was already prepared for w

    "Yes. I'm her friend!" Josie replied as she looked straight at the guy only to open her eyes wide in surprise like she had just seen a ghost. "You. . .You. . ." She stuttered."What are you doing here?" He asked."Who are you?" The lady asked him."Why did you allow this lady to come inside? Do you really not know how to act in someone else's house?" He asked, ignoring her question before facing Josie. "You! How did you get here?""I should be asking you that!" Josie snapped. "What are you doing in someone's apartment?""Someone's apartment? Who? She?" He asked pointing to the lady. "Did she tell you that?""I asked you who you are just now." The lady said."Hey! Asher, I still don't understand you. Can't you hear her question?""Do you know him?" The lady asked her."Hey, look here," He referred to the lady. "You don't remember, right? I had to leave my own apartment and spend the night out in a hotel just because of you!""Why did you?" She asked."Because brother asked me to!""Bro

    Roosevelt Kitchen.Josie dropped Drake that morning with the promise of checking on him some other time before going to work. It wasn't a very busy day at work and although she was used to the fact that Asher was always watching her without doing anything, she felt his absence. He was fond of coming in late but that wasn't a problem to Josie since she would end up doing all the work alone. That very day, he didn't show up at work. Every twenty minutes, Josie would look towards the door waiting for him to come in, but there was no sign of him. After the afternoon course, she gave up on the fact that he would still come.Noticing her, Isabella walked up to her. "Have you tried calling him?" She asked her."Who?" She asked, even though she knew who she was talking about. "Asher." Isabella replied, making a face to show her that she didn't have to pretend not to know who she was talking about."Why should I call him? He should have called me if he wasn't going to come. If we know we'll m

    "Congratulations!" Josie shouted as she placed a box on his table. "What's that?" Jared asked."I heard you got promoted as the Team leader, so I came to congratulate you." She explained, smiling. "I brought soup for you too.""To congratulate me?" He asked, looking at what was on his table."Yes!" She replied still smiling."How did you know so fast enough to bring me something? Those that are close to me are not yet aware apart from my juniors. We're not that close yet and besides, I just got promoted this morning.""Is that so?"Folding his arms, he sat back, resting his back on his chair.

    Not quite long after they left Nest bridge, Jared escorted Michelle home. The walk home was silent, even though they both had a lot to say to each other. Not able to hold it in any longer, Michelle broke the silence when they got to her place."Team leader." She called. Uhn.""Thanks a lot for today. It felt like a date.""Date?" Jared asked surprised. "Uhn.""That wasn't a date. We just took a break from work. If you want to go on a date, we should go on a proper date, not this kind.""Ah, but it was nice all the same. Thanks a lot." She told him smiling. Jared smiled too as he stared at her. "You too, thanks for your time. So, is this where you live?""Uhn." She nodded. "Just over there." She pointed and just then she saw her father. The smile on her face faded away as she saw him come down from a luxury car. She became confused as to who her father was with and just then, she caught a glimpse of the person as the car drove away."Did something happen?" Jared asked, noticing her

    Isabella's rooftop house. "I haven't still figured out why you had to follow me here." Isabella pointed out as she poured hot water into the coffee she was making. "I told you already." Josie replied. "I just wanted to make sure you don't go out drinking on your own." She added."And I told you I can't. My sister is with me, remember.""Ah, that's right! I've forgotten Sister Barbara is with you.""It's obvious that you've forgotten." Isabella teased her as she brought the coffee to her. "There you go.""Thank you!"

Let's see, I think it was before Asher joined us.""How about you, when last did you come to visit me?""You always go home to see your mother whenever I come by.""That's a lie.""I'm really serious. Fine then, I'll come over tomorrow.""No!" Josie replied quickly spilling hot coffee on herself. "Ouch!"Isabella rushed to get her a napkin. "Ah, what is wrong with you?! I

    Hernandez Group. Chazz sat in his office as thoughts of Josie flashed through his memory. When he thought about the dinner, he couldn't help but smile. Jodie Finn was right. He was actually looking at Josie. Just then he thought about what Jodie Finn told him. Flashback. ". . .what if I tell you that you were not the only guy staring so intently at her?

    Roosevelt Kitchen.After the morning course, the whole chef in section B took a break and Isabella rushed to meet Josie. "Josie! Josie!" She called her as she approached her. "What is it again?" Josie asked as she washed her hands. "Again? Hey, what is wrong with you? You've been disrespecting me recently! What exactly is wrong with you?

    Hernandez's House. Rita sat at the edge of her bed as she held her phone in anticipation. She stood up and paced round the room. Just then, a call came in. "What happened?" She talked quickly. "Why didn't you contact me since morning?""Don't get your hopes too high." came the caller's voice. "What are you saying?" She asked. "I'm not sure, but I think this search is leading me somewhere." He replied. "What do you mean?""Like I said, I'm not sure, but I'm trying to put the pieces of what I'm finding out together. But still, don't get your hopes too high. It might not be what you expect.""Just make it snappy already. I don't want mother to think I'm taking it slowly. You know how long she had to wait. It mustn't go beyond this year.""Rita."

    "She died," he replied to her.His reply hit Josie like a sharp pin in her chest. She was expecting something like 'she left' or 'I never got to see her again' or 'she travelled and forgot about me' or anything related to that, but she was totally not expecting something like death. "I'm. . . I'm sorry.""It's not your fault, so why are you apologizing?""I never thought it could be something like that. I'm sorry for asking. It must have been hard for you to tell me that.""No. It wasn't. I was unable to forgive myself when she died. Do you want to know why?""Why?""Because I could not fulfill my mother's dying wish. She asked me to protect her, but I couldn't. That time was the worst time for me and I regret every thing that happened." Closing his eyes repeatedly, he fought back the tears that formed in his eyes. "Enough about Annette" He told her, trying to smile. "Was there a time when you were young that you felt bad? Probably because of something that happened?""Actually, I. .

I promise to listen and I won't complain."Asher was quiet for a few seconds while fixing a stern gaze at her. "What's wrong? You don't have anything to say? But you look like you have tons of things going in your head. Are you really not going to say anything?" She asked and still got no reply from him. "Ah, what is this? If you keep on staring at me like that, I might have to run away.""Should we play a game?" He finally talked. "A game? What kind of

    "I'm home!" Josie removed her shoes and arranged them beside the other shoes at the entrance of the house before stepping in. "Sister!" Drake Luth called happily as he rushed to meet her.
