The club hall was booming with soft music, instead of the usual hip-hop. Unusual decorations turned the atmosphere into one of celebration, rather than the usual entertainment.
A three-step stage had been mounted with exceptional lighting. The walls were projected with well wishes, welcome messages, and messages of gratitude.
The boldest of them was projected like a banner: 'Appreciating our amazing Don and his family for all his care and thoughtfulness of us.'
The caption touched Don Denzel, and he turned to meet Valerie's infectious smile. She had been with him throughout after the meeting, so the only person Denzel suspected to be behind all this was Alessia.
"Aless, what did you do?" He asked in a hushed tone. She smiled and responded truthfully.
"Trust me, Denzel, I know nothing about this."
Loud voices echoed through the hall as soon as the music was off. "SURPRISE!"
