The next day at work, for the rest of the day Luna was wondering how she was going to ask a week's time leave from her boss. She was not used to telling lies, she found a hard time coming up with something. Until evening, she mastered the courage to confront her boss. "G-good evening Ethan. I had a favor to ask from you." He looked at her and gave her his attention. "I-I am -I was requesting for a week's time leave next week in case you don't mind please," she stuttered nervously. He thought for a moment before saying, "Sure you can have it. But can I know what it's for? Of course if you don't mind." "A-actually I was told that, No. I was given information that a possible relative of mine lives in Blue city so I wanted to meet her as soon as possible," she said in one breath. Ethan noticed that she was lying. "Did anyone ever tell you that you're not good at lying?" he surprised her and her eyes widened. "But it's okay you can have the leave." "Thank you so much Ethan. Uhm, can I take my leave now?" "Sure you can go." Ethan didn't like the fact that she lied to him. He picked up his phone and made a call," Find out where Luna Peyton is going next week."
Luna found Bella already packing her stuff all excited about her boyfriend's birthday and she decided to tease her. "Did he accept?" she asked anxiously. She made a disappointed face and said," Am sorry Bella. I tried everything but he didn't let me." "What?" Bella whispered and sat down on her bed all confused. "What am I going to do?" she asked on the verge of crying. "Hahaha, I'm lying. He accepted without any difficulties," she giggled. "Are you serious!" exclaimed Bella. "I was just teasing you. You could have seen your face just now." Luna burst into laughter while clutching her tummy remembering Bella's face. Bella puffed her cheeks while glaring at Luna for teasing her and began chasing her around the house hitting her with a pillow. "How could you tease me, you nearly made me cry."
The next day was a Saturday and Luna packed a few things to go with to Blue city. She had decided to stay in Blue City for three days after the interview and tour around the famous city. She packed some beach wear and all other accessories. While at work, Bella was up and down contacting the people she entrusted to make sure that her boyfriend's surprise was spotless. She came back home and gave Luna the ticket she would use to fly to Blue city and a hotel card. "This is the hotel where you are going to sleep. Your stay here will be valid for a week and you shouldn't worry because all expenses are on the company. I've sent the questions of the interview on your email. What else?" she was still thinking.
"I've decided to spend three more days there I want to tour around. Why the rush Bella? Aren't we separating at the airport tomorrow?" "Yeah but I wanna make sure you have everything. And I promise that at the end of this year we shall go in Blue City for a vacation on my pay cheque," winked Bella. "I can't wait," Luna clapped her hands in happiness.
Finally, it was Sunday. The two best friends hailed a cab to the airport and before separating they hugged and Luna said," Have fun. Tell your boyfriend that I said hello and I would like to meet him soon." "I will tell him. Enjoy yourself too. Blue city has some nice places so don't you dare confine yourself in the hotel. But you should also be careful." They talked some more and they finally departed.
After five hours, the plane finally landed in Blue city. Luna was already exhausted and immediately got a cab to Apex hotel. She checked in and was taken to her room. She appreciated the hotel appearance and services and she decided to lay down to have a rest. She finally remembered that she had to first contact Mr Cullen's assistant and confirm the interview. The phone was not picked on the first call and she panicked. She decided to call again which was picked on the last ring. "Good evening Mr. Vikram. I'm speaking from Golden times broadcasting company. I called to confirm the interview we have with Mr Cullen tomorrow." "Oh! We had really really forgotten about that but let me fix the schedule and call you back again," with that he hang up. Luna was left speechless and frowned. "How could he tell me that they forgot about it as if i came here to waste my time,"she mumbled. Just then she got another phone call and she realized that he had called back. "Mr Cullen is free to see you tomorrow at five in the evening. I'll send you the address of where he will be tomorrow." "Okay sir, thank you so much." With that he hang up and after five minutes she received a message on her phone stating the address. She heaved a sigh of relief and then decided to take a nap.
