(The Next Day)
Luther: (Walks into room, stopping at Paige’s office.) Mail.
Paige: (Smiling, in an unusually good mood since Isabella and Lady Katerina are not here.) Thank you Luther! Aren’t you kind!
Luther: (Looks at Paige like she has lost her mind.) Sure. (Shakes his head now thinking she has lost her mind and walks off.)
Paige: What a nice boy! (Goes next door to John’s office.) Mail delivery!
Me: (Flashes a smile) Thanks Paige. Anything good?
Paige: (Smiles back) No idea unlike you I don’t read other people’s mail.
Me: (Grimaces but, then shakes his head in agreement. He did kinda have a habit of looking through people’s mail. It was fun!) Bill … bill … bill … Ohhh! Look Paige something from
Paige: Oh no! What have they done?
Me: (Shakes his head at Paige) Oh come on Paige, don’t you have any faith in
Isabella and Lady Katerina?
Paige: (Snorts, almost doubling over in laughter.) No!
Me: Really Paige! You should have a little hope. Now let’s see … it’s from the conference and it says Mr. John Whitehead you are here by ordered by the Business Conference Association to pay exactly …. Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!
Paige: What? What did they do? I told you to let me and James go!
Me: To pay exactly one million dollars in damages. I think I am going to … I think I am going too (Passes out on floor.)
(Coming Back to Reality)
Paige: John! John wake up!
Me: (Wakes up knocking his chair over.)
Paige: Sorry for waking you but, you know better than to fall asleep at work. You are the boss, you have to set a good example.
Me: Sorry Paige I didn’t mean to fall asleep. Oh! And don’t tell me what to do.
Paige: (Rolls eyes knowing John wouldn’t fire her in a million years.) Anyway! What were you dreaming about that made you knock over your chair?
Me: Oh Paige it was horrible. I sent Isabella and Lady Katerina ….
Paige: Oh! Sorry to interrupt John but, I forgot to tell you that Isabella and Lady
Katerina left a few minutes ago ….
John: Left? Left! Noooooooooo! (Runs out of the room bypassing the elevator to run down the stairs to go after them.)
Paige: (Looking confused.) What? All I was going to say was Isabella and Lady Katerina left a few minutes ago to go get lunch.
The End
