"Will, this place is unbelievable. This makes me want to redo my home." Said Dan.
Daisy walked into the room.
"I remembered what it looked like before. I'm blown away." Said Dan, amazed.
They all walked back out into the outdoor indoor dining area.
"Hey, Will? Did you get an interior designer yet?" Asked Daisy.
"Actually, I was going to ask you. If you want or if you know anyone that can help me with that." Will answered back.
Will's phone rang. He touched the side of the button, and it becomes mute.
"I could have it done in a month or two." Noted Daisy.
"Send me anything you'll need, and I'll..." Will's cellphone rang again, cutting him off.
He takes a look at the screen. "Sorry, I need to take this." He said, answering his call as he walked out of the room.
"Daisy. This place is fantastic. Let's remodel our home." Dan said.
"It's not my design." She whispered to Dan.
"What do you mean?" Dan questioned.
"Remember, I told you. This is Lily's dream home design." She said.
He looked at Daisy with wide eyes.
"Oh, Daisy, what am I going to do with you?" He said lightheartedly and worried, as he walked up to her with a hug and kissed her forehead.
Will walked back in. "I have to go out of town for a few days. You have the spare keys." Will said, looking at both of them.
Will looked down at his phone as he turns.
"Wait. Will, are you going to be back on Saturday? I need you for two weeks" Daisy interrupted.
Will looked at Dan, who is shrugging his shoulders while raising his hand. Indicating he doesn't know anything. But in fact he, Daisy and Maureen have been planning for the last two days.
"Sure, I can move some things with Dan's help. Just send the details to Kelly." He told her.
Lillie is sitting at a table in a café restaurant. She looked at her watch then out the window, seeing her mom coming out of a cab. She stands smoothing her floral dress nervously. Mom comes into the café and sees Lillie. They walked towards each other.
"Hi mom." Said Lillie.
"Honey, it's good to see you. You could use a little more make up. Honestly, a floral dress. It's not even spring." Said her while looking over her.
"I'm sitting over here." Said Lillie, trying to ignore the comment as she moves to her seat.
Mom looked around. "We are not eating here? Are we?" Mom asked.
"It's one of my favorite places to eat." Said Lillie, discouragingly.
"Since we're here. It's fine, but you really should find a better place." Mom replied.
"I usually cook, so..." Lillie says.
"So, how's your brother?" Mom cuts her off, changing the subject. She moved to the table and sat.
He's fine. He is thrilled to be in California with his wife.
"Honestly, Lillie, your younger brother married before you." Said Mom, disapprovingly.
"I told you already, I'm focused on my business right now." Lillie said, trying to keep her tone down.
"You're not getting any younger." Mom said, as she opened the menu.
"I've already ordered your favorite dish." Said Lillie.
"Thank you, I am hungry." Mom said appreciating the advance consideration.
"It should come out soon." Said Lillie.
"So Lillie, I wanted you to know. Sunny and I have sold the house and are moving to Arizona by the end of the month." Said Mom.
"What?" Lillie asked.
"The house is sold. And I mailed you some of your items you may want. I've taken the liberty to donate the rest." Mom informed her.
"Why? I don't understand. I paid off the house. There is no need to sell it. Why would you do that without asking?" Lillie asked as she watched her mom get lightly impatient.
"You and I both know that house had so many memories. Sunny and I want to start our own in a new place." Said Mom.
"Does Joey know?" Lillie asked.
"Your brother knew a year ago." Mom replied.
"Why am I the last to?" Lillie stopped speaking when the waitress comes to their table with their food, placing them on the table.
"It's fine, whatever." Lillie replied dejectedly, started eating her food.
Daisy, Maureen, and her team are at Will's home sitting in front of a large vision board. Items on the vision board are color coded with sticky notes. Everyone is either on their phones or their laptops searching for items.
"We've got a pretty good idea what Will is looking for." Said Maureen.
"Lillies vision board on Pinterest was very detailed, which made it easy to combine modern country meets vacation getaway." Said Daisy to Maureen.
"At this point, I sincerely hope your plan works, this is a lot of work if it doesn't." Said Maureen.
"I have faith, and I've been praying every night that those two beautiful lost souls find love because they are perfect for each other." Said Daisy.
"Have they agreed yet?" Asked Maureen.
"Will has, but I haven't asked Lillie yet. Her mom is in town." Said Daisy.
"Isn't it in two days?" Asked a confused Maureen.
Daisy's phone rang, looked at the caller, and immediately picked up with a giant smile on her face. "Lillie!" Beamed Daisy.
"She did it again, every time I start to like my mom. She just gets worse." Lillie spilled out with a defeated tone.
"Well, did you tell her how you feel?" Asked Daisy.
"Didn't have time to. She only stayed for two hours, long enough to tell me everything I'm doing wrong." Said Lillie.
"Are you home now?" Asked Daisy.
"Almost, I might be in bed for two days to recover." Said Lillie, exhausted.
"I have a better plan, how about two weeks in a getaway spa hotel. All you have to do is the activities for an article my event coordinator have been asking for a year now." Said Daisy. Maureen looked at Daisy in amazement, can't believe what she is hearing.
"I think I need it! Is there face and body massages?" Lillie asked.
"I can add that, I'll send you the details." Said Daisy, everyone at the table noticing her hand in the air with excitement on her face.
"Thanks Daisy! You're the best, I think I'm calling an early night." Said Lillie.
"Oh Lillie, I wished you lived closer. I'm sending over your favorite expensive cookies and ice cream. I'll email you your details. Have a blessed and restful night." Daisy said with encouragement.
"Thanks, you too. Night." Said Lillie.
Daisy ended the call as she screams and hugs Maureen.
"I can't believe, what I just heard." Said Maureen bewildered.
"You see, God had a plan." Said Daisy, thrilled.
