Chapter 4

What's next?

Yes please.

'Uh, yeah, sure,' you answer, not eager to give up the chance to talk to this beauty in front of you.

She picks up the phone calls her father. Within seconds he answers and she says; 'Hi dad. There's an old employee here waiting to meet you. Yeah, he just wanted to come by. Alright. I'll let him know.'

She hangs up and looks at you again.

'He's coming down,' she says. 'Won't be a minute.'

'Okay, great, thanks!' you answer. 'Shame though. I could hang out with you here all day.'

She smiles. 'Unfortunately, I have to work. But maybe some other time?'

'I hope so,' you reply.

At that moment you hear footsteps behind you and you turn around. It's Walter, your old boss. He looks a bit confused, but happy when he recognizes it's you.

'Robbie! I didn't expect to see you here,' he says with a welcoming smile.

He gives you a firm handshake.

'Neither did I, sir,' you say. 'I just got back here for a bit of free time, and thought I should come and check out the old place. I see your doing a lot better since I was here.'

'Yeah, thanks, though I still have to employ my daughter,' he says and gives a slight chuckle. 'I hope she wasn't too grumpy.'

'No, not at all,' you reply. 'She's great.'

'All right,' he answers with a smile. 'Anyway, I haven't got much time. Business, you know how it is. But since you are here, why don't you come for dinner tonight? It would be good to catch up a little. I've known you since you were sixteen, and I would love to find up what you're doing with your life now.'

How do you answer?
