“They are here” Frank said after he walked into Alex’s office.

The toyota company had come today to finalize the contract. Alex was both excited and nervous, they could change their mind if they didn’t find the terms comfortable and also, if they finalized it, it was going to be a big responsibility on them.

It was the second big company that was coming to him in just less than 6 months. He was proud of himself and knew that even if it didn’t work out, he was glad they saw him worthy of being considered.

Alex stood from where he was sitting and walked with Frank to the conference room. Alex met the rest of the dawn’s company members as he walked in.

He sat opposite them, waiting for them to speak up first.

“We have made a decision.”

“We will finalize the contract today and we are looking forward to a great partnership with you.”

Alex excitedly stretched his hands out as he shook the other C.E.O.

He was too excited and his long term dream was finally sealed.

    I am really glad that you and Alex are getting along fine,” Lucy said, looking up from what she was knitting to look at Steph.Steph smiled“He is quiet good with conversations, didn’t know he talked that much. The most I have had with him was the conversation at the dinning the other day.”“I told you he was. You only had to get to know him.”“Yeah, you were right.”“How do you do it?” Lucy asked and Steph turned to look at her, wondering what she was talking about.“Do what?”“Allow him go for all these dates.”Steph laughed wondering what Lucy was talking about.“We have our separate lives to live here.

    “I know the place might be a little too much with everyone talking about cars and if you ever get bored just let me know,” Alex said, holding hands with Steph as they walked into the party.

    Steph heard a knock on her door, while she brushed her hair by the mirror in her room. She dropped the comb and walked up to the door. She wondered who it might be but figured that it was probably Lucy just trying to tell her breakfast was ready.Steph opened the door and she was met with Alex in front of it.“Hey,” She said.“How are you feeling now? Hope you’re much better?” He asked. Steph didn’t want him to care, to be so concerned about her.
