It didn’t get better the next day it worsened to some extent making Alva groan on the chair she sat on. She sighed.

“What is it now?”

She faced Jessie who sat beside her, “uhn?”

“No, not really, I’m just tired and have been having cramps since yesterday, I think I need a little rest,”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes,”

“Then wait for me to clear up this arrangement I’m doing, we would go home together and have a rest then okay?”

“Sure, take your time,”

She nodded and left for her assistant who stood in the corner taking notes.

“Have you taken the measurements of the corners?” Jessie asked and the assistant nodded showing her the notes.

Alva on the other hand laid her head on the table to take a little nap and took in the decorations of the area where Jessie was holding her next event planning. It was a wedding reception and she had to say the decorations were going fine.

He dipped the towel and squeezed it placing it on her head.She moaned at the coldness and tossed on the bed. She looked so fitful sleeping on the bed but after a few changes of the towel, she turned peaceful and he went downstairs to get something to eat.He was starving and needed something to replenish afte

    Silas thumbed through the detailed document the marketing and strategies manager had placed before him that afternoon and looked up, “So this is the layout of the plan, right?”“Yes sir,”“Could you summarize it a bit?”“Yes sir, so this first part is basically talking about using the media and other social influences to get the message that we are back on our feet out into the public, we plan to use television stations and billboards and that’s pretty much it. The next part is talking about rewarding our outstanding clients and giving out discounts to them on the purchase of Mbps. Also, the number of bandwidths sold to tier 2s would be increased to increase sales in the long run,”“Hmm, how much do you think would take care of that?”“To give a detailed demonstration on the plan, we would need about 1 million dollars for starters and maybe more in the long run,”“Okay, I’ll present your ideas to Mr. Jaxon when he comes and you can get started then, you know we need his final approval

    The nightclub was just as luxurious as the name when Josephine first heard of it that morning and she walked into the nightclub taking in its surroundings. She took in the bartender that was mixing drunks for the people at the counter, the customers that danced crazily, and the waiter that approached her right now, at least that’s what she thought.“Good evening miss, how may I help you?”“I booked a reservation here for one this morning by the name Josephine Smith, VIP,”“Oh let me check through the list here ma’am,” she brought out a tablet.“Sure,”And after some seconds she looked up smiling, “this way please,”She led her through a series of drunk people and a load of tables and finally arrived at a door that said VIP.Ooh, nice.She followed her into the passage taking in the different rooms as they passed and she stopped at a room that said 8, “This one ma’am, I’ll assign a cocktail server to you immediately,”“Okay,”She nodded and walked into the room leaving the attendant ou

She didn’t know what was causing the throb but she knew it had to do with the nightmare she had had the night before.It had been so vivid she still had memories of it but there were still spaces that were lacking and she needed to find them.Maybe it was time to visit her therapist after all. It would be a hard one since it had been a long she duh into her memories but she was sure it would be worthwhile.She had to find out what had happened fifteen years ago.Opening her eyes slowly, she found the room to be empty with a cold towel on her head and she removed it.

    The office was white-walled with the chairs and table standing in the corner while the couches stood in the corner and Alva sat on them facing the woman before her.“Mrs. Smith, I heard about your marriage, congratulations,”“Thank you, I appreciate it,”“So why are you here, are you facing some challenges you need therapy for, or is this about the incident of fifteenth years ago?”“It is about the latter,”“Oh, so tell me what the problem is?”“I’ve been having these trances and throwback dreams which didn’t start until recently,”“Are they different from the snatches you had when you first had the incident?”“Yes, this time they are connected to objects and certain people which I touch on the way…”“Then there is certainly a chance that they are connected to your past,”“I thought as much too,”“First…” She picked up a paper and pen, “…tell me everything that has happened within the last 12 years since we met,”“Well I had nothing for a whole year, going blank and having no record f

    Josephine loaded the programs she was working on and watched the codings load as she cracked her knuckles.“What are you doing?”She heard Andrea walk into the tattoo shop and shrugged, “messing with some codings, I want to create a program,”“Oh,”She sat on the couch and watched her work.“Josephine,”“Yes?”She didn’t look up as she had her eyes fixed on the programs she was running and she didn’t register what she heard next.“I want to introduce Kai to you,”“Huh?”“I want to introduce my girlfriend to you,”She stopped what she was doing and looked up, “your girlfriend?”“Yes, she’s here and I want to introduce her to you,”“Oh uhm… sure, I’ll love to see her, where is she?”“Outside,”She called the lady in and she came in sitting beside Andrea as she smiled, “Hello, My name is Kai and I’ve heard a lot about you from Andrea,”“Oh, nice to meet you,”“Yeah,”They smiled and kept quiet none of them saying anything until Andrea cleared her throat, “yo-you guys should say something

    Alva went to Jaxon's house the next day her heart beating fast and she found them fooling around in the kitchen, "what are you guys doing?""Cooking,""Mama!" He rushed into her hands even though he was already a little past three years old and she caught him in her hands."Why are you doing that when you know you can't handle him?""Who told you that?""Look at his hands..." She pointed to his hands that were stained with sauce and he looked away guilty, "Okay, maybe I did indulge him a little,""So what are you guys cooking?"

    They were back at the house two days later and Alva was taking a bath in the shower. She had had a brief period of cooking and she thought she should take a bath. She was feeling different though she couldn't explain and she had vomited, she wasn't sure if it was what she thought.Pushing the thought back from her mind, she picked up a towel and wrapped it around her before going into the room that was theirs. Jaxon wasn't there, she wondered where he was.She cleaned off her body and when she had dried off her hair, she went to the closet to decide what to wear.

    The next few weeks were hectic for Alva, from going to the gallery to seeing the artist, she had a lot to do before her opening. She was eager to do it."Uhm... We should place that painting to the side..."The paintings were already in frames and they were hanging with other workers and Helen in view, "this is looking beautiful already,""I know right, the paintings are just a good backdrop for the whole setting,""Okay and that would be a wrap," she said after the last painting was hung."Let's take a seat,"They sat down after the workers had all left and it was in Alva's office.

    They finished picking the clothes and Jessie had picked this beauty of a dress for herself. It was purple, it had wide straps and the edge kind of fell off her shoulders. Josephine had concluded that she wouldn't be wearing any dress as she was okay with the jeans and shirt she always wore while Madison had picked out a black dress, typical of her.Alva on the other hand went with the slim but flay at the end dress and when she had told the attendant what she wanted to be adjusted, they left the shop."So let's go to the bar then, I made a reservation,""Is that alright though, I mean we're going to be drinking and we all brought our cars?""We can call a driver to come drive us,""Oh that's true," Jessie replied and Alva was surprised.
