I stood back to admire my creation one last time and only one word came to my mind to mildly put it which was Magnificent. Magnificence was what Mrs Williams wanted for her daughter's welcome party and magnificent was what she'd paid for. which was what I Goodness Jude simply delivered.
"There you are Goodness" Mrs Williams said as she approached me, I eyed her appearance and must I say am surprised she can manage to look more beautiful and stunning.
"Congratulations once again Mrs Williams" I said to her as she stood beside me.
"Ohh thank you dear,you were wonderful, look how this place looks like a mini heaven. I knew I wouldn't regret hiring you as my planner" she said looking happy and pleased. And that is what I want with my clients plus she was nice to work for.
"Common it's my job,I it's what I know how to do best Mam, and I am so pleased to know that you are pleased". I told her honestly.
Someone had opened a celebratory bottle of wine, I took two glasses, handling one to Mrs Williams
"To the next time we work together", we cheered and I tossed back the wine,and I suddenly felt tired from all the stress of this job.
I mean I was planning this welcome party for her daughter for almost two weeks now and am super tired.
I need to get the hell out of here.
"Well Mrs Williams thank you for awarding me this contract,I had a fabulous time but I really need to take my leave now". I said checking my Rolex watch once again.
"See you some other time dear".
She said giving me a motherly hug which I savoured because I actually missed my mum.
I stepped out of the hotel and reached for my phone to call my best friend. Florence, she is exactly like me in all ways,she's used to getting what she wants , we are both successful in our careers,she's a model while am an event planner. We've been besties since high school.
"Hello the number your trying to call Is on another call, please try again later. Thank you" customer service said.
I swear that girl is always receiving calls, I put my phone inside my bag and head out of the hotel.
I'm currently in Lagos while she is in Abuja for a shoot,we were supposed to meet in Lagos for a little girly time, I mean I haven't seen that girl for almost three weeks and I miss her, besides it's a good time for a break.
Just when I was about to start the car my phone rings,hmm she decided to Grace us with her call.
"Her bear,how are you?" She shouted over the phone which got me thinking to myself why she's shouting when I can hear her clearly.
"Her baby am fine, tired though I miss you like never before"
I said to her smiling like a fool.
"I'm OK , just finished rounding up with my shoot,are you still at the party?" She asked me .
"Not actually, am just about to leave though am in my car already" I told her sighing.
