Saturday was eventful for Amber as well……. Today her mother arranged a blind date for her. The guy was from a family similar to theirs.Harold Udolph, 32-year-old bachelor; Fair skinned, medium built with blonde hair; a handsome, upright and proud man. Although the Udolph’s had a family business that existed for more than 100 years, being the second son, he didn’t inherit the right to run the ship. Rather than staying like a leech, he decided to venture on his own and had his own gaming company. He was definitely a catch for most women, however to Amber who had her eyes on Benjamin Adalase, he was not even worth mentioning.Amber gritted her teeth as she drove to the arranged destination. Her mother had booked a private room in David’s kitchen to create an intimate ambience for the two to get together. Mrs Witherby really liked this promising youth. She hoped that Amber’s eyes would be dazzled, and she would forget her obsession. Her husband had explained everything, she couldn’t let

The next week passed relatively quickly.The ladies along with the two girls caught up for shoe shopping and jewelry shopping on Monday. None of the designs seem to interest Dana. She decided to give the ladies a surprise.“Leave the jewelry to me if you trust me. I will look for it after work. But you have to pay me and no refunds …I am a poor office worker.” Dana patted her chest although she wasn’t confident.She decided to get Ben’s help. She already owed him a lot. She called in a favor to the old master whose design shop she occasionally used.Ben withdrew all the surveillance from Amber as he got news that she was behaving and even went on a blind date. Contradictory to his innate nature, he assumed that she had learnt her lesson.Tuesday afternoon, Adalase enterprise, 26th floor, CEO’s room-Ben was fuming, three managers stood shaking like leaves in the wind. A deficit was noted by one of the managers during a routine audit, but he couldn’t find the cause or the source. The o

Dana opened the workshop and started getting ready for the day putting all the uncomfortable thoughts to the side.She turned the furnace on before sitting to draw. She needed to do the set for Sarah today. She roughly scribbled what she wanted and realized that she needed to see the finished stone before she could decide the size of the other components of the necklace. She made 2 molds with the silicone in the shape of a lotus leaf and added the details she wanted and left it for curing.She fiddled with her ring while she thought. She had a strange thought. She looked around although she knew no one was around. She quickly put some gold pieces to melt in the furnace and got working. She made a mold of a miniature griffin resting its right foot in a posture to regain control on the phoenix that was rising from the ashes and lending his wings for the griffin in support.She made two even smaller 2 dimensional versions about a cm tall each. She carefully placed

Ben couldn’t control the happiness in his heart. It spilled as a smile to his lips. He never thought she would come. He thought Ed was casually pacifying him. But soon his smile disappeared as he thought of the possibility that Ed might have used his relationship with Lara as a shield to force Dana to come.Dana noted all of Ben’s expressions and was confused but she pretended as though she didn’t notice and sat down next to Lara uncomfortably.Ben noted Dana’s discomfort and was even more sure of his theory. He didn’t want her to be uncomfortable. He didn’t want to celebrate his birthday like this.“You are you and I am me. Your relationship is yours and mine is mine…. don’t mix the two. Not for me or for anyone.” Ben spoke in annoyance to a stunned Ed and walked past him towards Dana.Ed looked at Ben’s back in confusion, he knew Ben was really …really angry but wasn’t he su

Dana reached the apartment after the 10th call from Lara.“Lady, I don’t have wings.” Dana scorned as she saw Lara waiting impatiently at the door.“You’re not planning on bailing on me, are you?” This was what Lara was most afraid of. She knew Dana did not like these events and would not force her normally. But this time she was nominated. She was really nervous and wanted Dana to be there.“Isn’t Ed coming?” Dana quirked her eyebrows.“You are bailing, aren’t you?” Lara sat on the sofa with a dramatic shriek.“Did I say so?” Dana felt like she had a headache coming on. She slouched on the sofa next to Lara.“I am really nervous. This is really huge. It is like the biggest event in the industry hosted once every 5 years. It looks at nominations from 6 countries.” Lara started to hyperventilate.“Okay…. okay… I get it. W
