Bridget Roberts stepped into the cozy Italian restaurant, scanning the room for her best friend, Lauren. The aroma of freshly baked bread and simmering sauces enveloped her, making her stomach growl with anticipation.

Lauren waved from a corner table, her bright smile illuminating the dimly lit space. Bridget weaved through the crowded room, exchanging warm hugs with Lauren.

"Hey, girl! You look stunning," Lauren said, admiring Bridget's fitted black dress.

"Thanks, Lauren! You're rocking that red top," Bridget replied, taking a seat.

"How's Amelia doing?" Lauren asked, sipping her wine.

"Amazing!" Bridget replied. "Seven months pregnant and glowing. I'm so excited to meet the new baby."

Lauren beamed. "You'll be an incredible aunt."

Here's your change," she added."Thank you so much, dear," the woman replied. "You can keep the change as a tip for a job well done.""Thank you so much, ma'am.

    Closing the door and dropping her keys on the counter, Amelia lazily dragged herself up the stairs to her room."Hey, Mom," Amelia said to her mother, who was in the kitchen preparing dinner for the family."Hello, dear, welcome back," her mother replied."Just go freshen up and come down for dinner; I'm sure you must be tired from the day's shift," her mother added."Yes, Mom, I'm really tired. I'll be down when dinner is ready," Amie replied, already halfway up the stairs.Entering her room and closing the door behind her, she flung her bag onto the bed and headed straight for the bathroom to take a very hot bath. Amelia had always been the kind of girl who loved silence and music; she also loved reading novels, and her escape was always her bathroom. She loved to sing too, and this is why she took so long in the bathroom; it made her feel safe and noticed. Putting on her bathrobe and her bathroom slippers, she headed for the bathroom when she heard a knock on the door."Come in, Br

    “With that been said, I’ll love to retire to my bed now. I need to sleep, I have a very long day tomorrow” Amelia said clearing off the plates from the table into the kitchen.“Wait up sis, I have something that I wanna discuss with you” Brie said to Amie. “ Oh alright then, I could spare a few minutes of my beauty sleep time” Amie replied. “Meet me in my room when you’re done washing the plates” She added. “Alright sis, thank you” Brie replied as she walked into the kitchen to wash the dishes. Few minutes later, Bridget was already done doing the dishes when one of her younger brothers stopped her to speak with her. “Hey big sis, can you spare me few minutes of your time?” Micah asked. “Yeah sure. What’s up?” She replied. “Well, I don’t know if you’ve noticed but ever since you’ve been coming to pick us from school, there has always been a different note placed underneath my locker every single day” Micah said“ I don’t understand.

    As at 5am in the morning, Amie’s alarm rang and she got up to do her house chores and cook for the family.As soon as she woke up, she dashed to the kitchen to pick up the sweeping brush and began sweeping the whole house. After forty-five whole minutes she was done sweeping, she went into the kitchen to start cooking. It was a Saturday morning and she had already thought of the food to prepare before she went to bed the previous night so it wasn’t hard for her to know what to cook. She had decided to task herself and prepare everyone’s best meal at least to make everybody happy, so she picked up two big pots and started the preparation for the cooking. As challenging as this idea was, she tried as much as possible to be quite enough so as not to wake anybody up. It took her two hours to finish cooking and set the table before going to have her bath. “All done” Amie said to herself feeling very fulfilled that she was able to pull her idea of preparing everyone’s favorite dish for brea

    Walking into the mall, Amelia walked straight to the section for female office wears to select and try on new clothes suitable for her job description. She didn’t want to look too cheap, this is why she had started saving money since Bridget was in her senior year so that she’d be able to afford quality wears for herself when she eventually gets an office job. So she went to the quality section and chose a number of short straight skirts, shirts, gowns, and office trousers. She also bought dinner gowns for herself because she knew she’d definitely be following her new boss to several dinners when she eventually starts the job.“I’d like to pay for all these please” Amie said to the cashier after getting all the wears she wanted to get. “Alright ma’am please give me your card so I can ring it for you” The cashier replied stretching out her hand to collect the card from Amie and placing it into the machine for payment. “All done ma’am, thanks for your patronage.

He knocked three times before entering her room after he heard a “come in”. “Hey mum, how do I look?” Nelson asked his mum, which made her look up from the book she was reading. Looking at her son she felt so blessed that he could look so handsome without even having to do much. Nelson was putting on a navy blue pant trouser, a black body hug round neck, showing off his perfectly built and chiseled chest, a blue stripped suit and a white sneakers. He also wore a silver wrist watch and a silver neck chain and brushed his hair up in curls. “You look absolutely dashing son” His mum said after taking in every detail of his dressing. “Well thank you mum, it’s almost seven so I’d be heading out now to pick Eva up” Nelson said checking himself one last time in the dressing mirror b
