It was Sunday morning and Tierra had another week of vacation left. Over the weekend, she was bored out her mind. She spent hours aimlessly flipping through movies on Netflix, and Fios on demand, and exercising using her Xbox 360 ’s, Zumba on Kinetic . She had-had enough. Qu was still racing through her mind. They had only spoken briefly this morning. She offered to take him out for Sunday brunch, but, he said he was going to find a church home, away from home. Relieved he was looking on his own, she was glad she wasn’t going to have to break her promise to his mother, about making sure he went.

  After they hung up, she called her boss at home. Being the top ranking executive in the company had its perks. One was being able to get in touch with the CEO 24/7.

  “Good afternoon sir,” she began in a pleasant tone.

  “Tierra?! This is an unexpected delight. What can I do for you this beautiful Sunday morning?” he inquired as if he didn’t know.

  “I’m good sir. Sorry to bother you at home on the weekend. It’s just that, I know that you ordered me to stay out for two weeks, but…”

  “OK Mrs. Rodriquez!” Mr. Baxwell laughed, “I’ll see you bright and early tomorrow morning,” he replied. As far as Mr. Baxwell concerned, he was surprised he hadn’t heard from her sooner. One week was better than no time at all. He needed her in her best form mentally, and relaxed for what was coming up. He hung up his phone, wondering if his plan would be as successful as he envisioned.

  “Thank you sir. I do appreciate it,” she responded. “See you in the morning.”
