"Okay, you can come into the store and sit near the transparent glass, so you could know when the person arrives "
" Ok thanks, I will for her inside then"Jason said and walked in then sat by the window side.
Jessica just finished attending to a customer when Amy walked in.
"Hey bestie, i missed you, see I have a lot of gist for you"Amy said.
" Ok but first yo... "Jessica tried to tell her Jason was there but Amy interrupted her.
" No but, firstly, in your own opinion do you think Mr Jason is cold and proud, don't y.. "Amy continued blabbing.
Jessica was trying to use her eyes to give her sign that Jason was there, Jason pretended he didn't hear anything and continued staring out the window.
"Jessica is something wrong with your eyes, why are you blinking,as I was saying Mr jas.." Amy was still talking when Jessica pinched her.
" Hey what was that for?" She said pouting and Jessica pointed her hand to Jason direction and Amy gasped.
"Hey, why don't you tell me he was here, do you think he heard me? "Amy whispered.
" Really?? When I was trying to tell you giving all signs as possible, you were just blabbing, I don't know if heard you"Jessica said and shrug .
" You are mean"Amy said pouting, earning a smirk from Jessica.
" Breath in, breath out whoooo"Amy said executing the practice, she then put her hands together at her back then swing to Jason.
"Good Afternoon, Mr Jason" Amy greeted.
"Good morning, hmm you.." he tried remembering he name and Amy rolled her eyes in her mind.
"Amy , my name is Amy" she said.
"Right, morning Amy" Jason said.

"I don't think you are sir, maybe it was one of the baker who told me that, and I actually defended you sir"
" Ok I get it"he said dryly and Amy scratched the back of her head and went to Jessica who was watching them.
Jason got a call from his granny telling him to come home, he stood up and went to Amy and Jessica.
" Thanks for the courtesy, I need to go, he won't be able to make it again.

" Was it an she, yeah I mean, it was an 'her' so the 'her' decided to send an 'him' to me that was what happened.
"Oookayyy" she said drawing the ok because she didn't understand what he was saying and Jason left.
"Why the hell is he acting wired" Amy asked also confused.
"I don't know "Jessica answered attending to a customer who just came in.
"Whatever, let me tell you the real gist" Amy said and told Jessica how Nathaniel had confessed his feelings to her.
"I wish it was Andrew who said all that to me I wouldn't have think twice before accepting"she said.
" Just imagine me and Nate together, do we even fit?" Amy asked.
" Of course you do , you two would make a great couple.
"Jessica!!!" She shouted.
"What?, Common don't waste your time on Andrew, Andrew is a playboy, I bet he will just use and dump you, you know his usual style right ? "Jessica said.
" I don't care"Amy answered.
" Of course you should care, we've known Nate since when we were little when he always follow his father, your former Gardner, before he eventually grew up and become your family driver.

*She is so beautiful*Mr fedrick thoughts on citing Jessica.
He stared at her and licked his lip, Jason noticing it try to shift his attention from Jessica by asking him how is saw the surrounding.
"Why don't means beautiful tell me why I should finalize this deal with your company" he said referring to Jessica.
" This was not the deal, and besides it's just a comic Baker, the presentation is none of her business."Jason said.
" I don't totally agree with you Mr Jason, she being the comics Baker should make her be able to convince me to patronize you"Mr Frederick said still insisting that Jessica should present, Jason try to convince him that head Baker should do it instead but he remained adamant.
"Why don't you come out and convince me darling" he said. And everyone turned to look at their self.
" I am talking to the blonde hair" he said and Jessica gasped.
She wasn't prepared for anything like this, she has nothing to say, everybody turned and looked at her.
"Just a minute, Mr fedrick" Jason said and took Jessica to the far end of the room.
"Do you know what to say? He asked her.

" This deal will help the company alot" he added.
" We should celebrate this, let go for a company dinner"our head baker suggested and everyone nodded in agreement.
" You guys can go ahead, the bill is on the company" Jason said.
"Aren't you coming along sir? "Jessica asked.
" No I have a lot of things to do, rather than wasting my time on a dinner.
"You are not wasting your time sir, you can get to know us better, you don't even know some of us name, he should come with us right? Amy asked and everybody shouted yes.
"Hmm, fine, by what time?" Jason asked.
"7pm should be fine" they all agreed.
"Fine, let doubled our effort, so today's work won't be affected, we will meet by 7,"Jason said and left and everyone squeeled .
" Maybe he is really not proud afterall" Amy said nudging Jessica shoulder.
" You can go for him if you want, you have my blessings" Amy added and winked .
" You are really not serious, you just went out of line"Jessica said and rolled her eyes.

It was already 30mins after 7,and everybody was already present at the restaurant they agreed on, and Jason was yet to show up and they concluded he was not coming.
"Hope I am not to late," everybody heard and turned to see Jason, he was dressed casually, he styled his hair differently, making him look more handsome. Some of the ladies there were already drooling. Even Jessica couldn't help but stare.
"Wow, Mr jason, you look really handsome tonight, you are not late we were just about to start, seat here it is yours"Melissa said gesturing to the sit they left for him, he smiled and sat down.
" High service, I don't know why she even came, I thought she was against Jessica"Amy said and they chuckled and Melissa just hissed.
They ordered for grilled meat, pork, casserole, meatballs and a whole lot more, with beers and soft drinks , for those that don't drink alcoholics. Jessica was sitting near Jason.
"Ok, let start introducing ourselves" Melissa said.
" Give honour to whom honour is due to , we will first toast to our star of the night, toast to Jessica"Amy said cutting her off, Jessica just shook her head at her crazy friend and everyone lifted their cups and toasted.
Afterwards they began introducing themselves.
"I am Victor Kingsley," I am 25 years old.
"Isabella Ronald, 28 yrs...
"William Adam" 32 years...
They all introduced themselves, it was remaining Jessica, Melissa and Amy.
"My name is Jessica Gavins, I am 22 yrs" Jessica said.
"My name is Amy, and since you know my bestie age you should automatically know mine, because we were friends from when we were in the womb, then obviously we would be around the same age"Amy said grinning.
" Nobody asked you that miss"Melissa said and hissed.
" None of you business Melissa.
"Anyways, my name is Melissa stones, I am 26 yrs obviously older than some rude brat" she said referring to Amy who was already sending her glares.
"I am a very cool and friendly type" she said and Amy scoffed.
" I love singing, very hard-working, I am a professio..." She couldn't finish before Amy also cut her off.
" Well, well, well nobody also asked you that, we don't need to know about your rotten self"they continued arguing with everybody just laughing at their childish act, everybody knows they are always at each other neck.
"Let's dig in i am so famished" Victor said and Amy and Melissa sent one last glare at each other before settling down and joining them.
Everyone started eating except Jason.
"Mr Jason why are you not eating? Jessica asked.
" Nothing, just don't have the appetite," he said and continued pressing his phone and others continued eating and discussing, laughing at regular intervals.
When they were done they also went to the karaoke, Melissa was the first to grab the mic and truth to be told she sang beautifully well.
"Who knows a goat, can also sing pretty well" Amy said and Melissa scoffed. Others also sang and Melissa have the mic to Jessica, everyone nodded in agreement except Jason who looked uninterested.
"No I can't sing" she refused and Amy scrunched her face.
"I know you are lying, Amy you are her bestie, does she know how to sing? "Isabella asked and Jessica gave Amy a pleading face, Amy thought for a while.
"No, she doesn't, she actually sings like a frog, it would be disastrous if she sings right now"Amy said sarcastically. Jason looked up when she said that.
"How can someone with such anice voice not know how to sing"
" Well, she should sing like that"
" Frog or dog, she must sing"those were the comments from people and the drag her to the front. Jessica just gave Amy back the mic.
