By vintage library

Episode 4

I was seated in my room as I kept tossing the card in my hand as I wonder what the first lady would request. The type of proposal she have.

Down to earth Grace n Maria snapped her fingers bringing me back to conciousness.

Maria when did you get here? I asked hiding the card

I should be asking you what you were thinking about. She said sitting beside me

Me? Nothing, I am not thinking about anything. I quickly defended

There was a short silence before she asked. Are you having trouble at the agency?

No… What makes you say that? I inquired

I know something is bothering you. She said

Nothing is, why are you here? I changed the topic.

See my new shoes. She raised a white sneakers to my face. It’s beautiful isn’t it, and guess what? She asked

You bought it at a lower price. I guessed

You are no fun, you should not have said the right thing, saying wrong answers is the fun in guessing. She said

Sorry, so wanna give me the change? I asked

Hummmm.. she made a thinking sounds before standing up. I don’t think so.

See you later. She said running out of my room.

If I sit here I won’t know what it is she wants from me. I said and walked out of my room

……………….

Good evening Your Excellency. Julia greeted Ethan as he walked towards the stairs

Where’s Tommy? He asked

He’s asleep. She answered

Okay. He mutter before walking up the stairs, he heard Ariel mummuring something to Blair, they seems to be in a deep conversation that they didn’t notice him.

Ariel. He called and they stopped talking

Welcome your Excellency. Blair greeted standing while Ethan nodded in response.

Ariel. He called again

Yes. She answered

Can we talk? He requested

No, I am discussing something more important. She said

My la. Blair could not finish whatever it was she wanted to say because of the way Ariel glared at her.

Really? He chuckle

Yes if you don’t mind excuse us. She said

He nodded and walked to their room.

First lady what was that about? You were mean. Blair said sitting down on the same spot she stood up from.

Mind your business Blair. Ariel said and added. Let’s countinue our conversation.

I don’t think our conversation is imp. She could not finish her sentence when Ariel’s phone rang.

*Good evening* the caller greeted first

*Grace, right?* Ariel ask

*You remember my name, I feel honored* I said

*Of course you have a beautiful name* she compliment but all that was not what I needed, I want her to go straight to the point

*So first lady what is the proposal you are talking about?*I ask

*I see you are curious, it’s good we will talk about it better when we met for lunch tomorrow. I will send my driver to come and pick you up, wear something great* she said and cut the call.

What was that? I wondered staring at the screen of my small phone

………..

Grace? Blair asked and she humm in response

Get everything I asked for ready. Ariel said

Why are you so confident? What of she doesn’t take your offer? Blair asked

Are you stupid? Who will be given the offer of becoming the first lady and will turn it down? Only a mad person. She said that last part with a chuckle

What if she is mad? Didn’t you see the way she spoke to that girl? She’s an ordinary cleaner yet she’s so bold. Blair stated

That is what makes her the perfect candidate for this, once she takes my place no one will dare to walk all over her, because she’s going to stand up for herself that way no one will suspect a thing. She said

I still don’t like this idea if yours. Blair said frowning

If you don’t want to lose your job do as you are told and stop asking useless questions. Ariel snapped
