"No one else offers a great deal, so I think as your consultant, you will have a great merger with this company."

"Ms. Cheska Horton! You always amaze me. You're a brilliant woman. "

"Thank you, Mr. Wilson."

"Ms. Horton, you deserve a break. After all the effort and amazing things you've done for the company, I am granting you a vacation leave this whole summer. "

Mr. Wilson is right I've been the consultant for the company for 3 years in a row. Since the day I started working for this company, I've been extremely passionate and dedicated to my work. I worked overtime and had a lot of sleepless nights. And I think this is the perfect time for me to take a break.

"Oh, thank you, Mr. Wilson. It's my pleasure! "

Now is the time to prepare everything before I leave.

Today is the first day of summer. I decided to go back home to New Bern, North Carolina. It is located at the confluence of the Neuse and the Trent rivers, near the North Carolina coast. I've been away from my family for the longest time, and this is the perfect time to go back and take a rest. I really want to take a long break from everything I am doing. It's hard to handle and juggle everything. But I do love it.
I work as a consultant. It's quite trying. Everything seems like a routine; my life is just a cycle of work, talk, eat, sleep, and repeat.

"Hey, dude! Kevin, how are you?"

"I'm fine, dude!"

"Dude, I am inviting you to my wedding okay? You are part of the entourage okay?"

"Dude, sure, no problem."

"But you can bring a girlfriend if you want."

"Dude, I don't have any girlfriends." I chuckled.

"Kevin Anderson? Is that real? you? I don't believe you, men!"

"Believe it or not, but it's true."

This is Mike. He's been my best friend since our childhood days. We grew up in Charlotte City in North Carolina.
And now he's getting married.

I tried to be productive today. I spent my time reading some books, chatting with my family and even spending my time with my plants.
I'm glad my mom has a green thumb. She really takes good care of my plants. These plants are my babies and I feel so relaxed whenever I am looking at them.
But what else can I do? Summer is going to be long, and I don't have anything to do.

I am about to sleep when my phone suddenly beeps.

Hi?

Hmmm, who is this? The number is not registered on my phone. I will ignore it, but suddenly my phone beeps again.

Unknown number +80xxxxxxxxxx
Hi???

Should I reply or not? What if this is a scam? Every day I am receiving a lot of messages like "Congratulations! If you win 100,000 Please click the link to claim" or "Congrats, you won an iPhone to claim. Send me money through this link."

Okay, I decided not to reply to this message. I should go back to sleep. Tomorrow is another day and another adventure. I am excited about tomorrow. :)
