"Hey Sam, could you call Michael and tell him I'm gonna be booked this whole week please?," she asked her assistant.

"Yes Robyn. Also, do you want me to call Paige and make sure she's still on for lunch?"

"Nah, I'll do that. Thanks," she sat back in her chair tiredly.

"Alright, I'll be out in the front," he walked out of her spacious office.

Her back and her feet were killing her like crazy. She couldn't wait for these 5 months to come and go.

"Hello beautiful," he said to her as she entered.

She went to where he was standing and wrapped her arms around his body from behind.

"Hello handsome. What are you making?"

"Well my love, I'm making barbecue chicken, fried shrimp, steak, rice, beans and broccoli."

"Damn, you making all of that? What's the occasion?"

He turned to face her, "Seriously Robyn? You forgot already? We're having company Robyn. Remember the guys I'm trying to sign? You told me you really liked one of the guys paintings."

"Ohhhh that's right. What's his name? Christian Mason right?"

"Yes, and Dee Smith. Those boys are going places Robyn, I need to manage them. They need to do more than that underground shit they been doing. How could you forget? I've told you this plenty of times."
