"In that case, Ms. Stewart, Mr. Lucas, shall we move over there to have the photos taken?" the man suggested. He continued, smiling, "The scenery is much nicer over there."
They all trooped behind the man to the location he had suggested. He then instructed them on how they should pose for better pictures.
While all this went on, Zess stood on the side and did not join them.
"Zess, come and join us," Wendy gestured to her.
"I'll pass. You go ahead," Zess waved back at her with a smile.
Wendy and her family were having some family photos taken. Despite having worked for Wendy for many years, she was still an outsider. That was why Zess did not think that it was appropriate for her to join them, Knowing what Zess was thinking, Wendy walked over to her and tugged at her hand, "Come and join us, Zess."
"I..." Zess was about to decline.
However, Michael interrupted her and urged, "Come, Zess. Join us."
