Day 30
Lillian was nervous this was an important meeting and the last thing she would do as an employee of Jake's company.
She stood tall as she went through all the material. She answered question. Then in the end she sat down.
"Mrs. Wolf, This project is well thought out. I am impressed. However I'm to understand today is your last day here." One of the board members says.
"Thank you and yes. I need to return to my old job on Monday." She said.
"Then I vote against this. If she was staying on to over see this project then I would give it a green light."
Many members shook there heads.
"Mrs. Wolf, what do you say. Stay on so your dream becomes real?" Jake smiled.
"..." She was shocked.
"Tell you what we will table this till next Tuesday. Give us an answer then." Jake knew this was something she wanted even if she didn't admit it now.
They adjourned the meeting and she left to talk to her best friend.

"This is it!" Hana says handing Charlie a script.
He opened it up and glanced through it.
"What makes you choose this one?"
"The base line story is familiar with a twist. I know the right people to play character listed. I think this would be the best one to do next."
Charlie looked over it again. He had to agree this was good. "Ok, will start rolling on this. Set up a meeting with the writer and I'll get the direction crew. Also contact the school and give them the names of the people you want along with what we are looking for. Next week we will start auditions."
"Thank you!" She jumped in his lap and kissed him.

Lillian came into Caring Hands and was greeted with lots of hugs. Toby followed along loving the attention he was getting.
"Where's the boss?" She asked.
"Kitchen, it's her turn to cook. Are you coming back?" Gary asked.
She just smile and walked away. Carrie was making a stew and looked up.
"So you deside to visit. Will you be back tomorrow or are you giving all this up." Carrie stretch out her arms.
"Can we talk?" Lillian said.
"Sure, Tell me what's on your mind?"
"They want me to stay on at Fairlynn Corporation to be over the the project I told you about. If I don't stay then they will scrap it."
"The plans mean a lot to you and your grandmother. You should see it through. The girl I have helping out now is good. So don't worry about us." Carrie said.
"Thank you. Also your going to be a God mother in about 9 months."
"What.... sit down.... are you sure?" Carrie led her over to stool and placed her hands on Lillian tummy.
"Your going to be a mommy."
"What's all the yelling?" Gary said.
"Our baby girl is going to have a baby!!!" Carrie yelled louder.
Gary ran out to spread the news.
She was thankful for all her friends and family she had. How did she ever think she was alone in this world.
She talked to Carrie for a while and even help serve the meal. Every was excited about the baby but sad that Lillian would not be coming back to work.
She promised to visit and when the baby comes she would show everyone.

Kimmy got off early so she could get ready for her date. She was excited. She put her blonde hair up in a messy duo with a few curls falling down. She wore her gold party dress that made her feel like a woman with white heels.
She arrived at 6 pm. The Host greeted her, "Reservation?"
"I'm meeting Jack and the bean stock." She said a little embarrassed.
"You must be the golden harp." He said. "Follow me."
He led her to a private room. She took a deep breath and went in. The room was covered in Yellow roses with ivy.
She then spotted the handsome man and her face fell. Her boss Jack Crow.
He was stunned at the beautiful girl before him. His heart was out of control as he stood to pull out a chair.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know. I'm so so sorry Mr. Crow." backed away to the door.
How does she know him then it hits him, "Kimberly?"
She ran out how humiliating this was. Would he fire her now.
He ran after her and grabbed her arm to stop her.
"Kimberly, your the golden harp?" He asked.
She could not look him in the eye, "Yes"
"You...you look beautiful tonight. Why are you running away." He asked.
"Your my boss."tears were forming in her eyes.
He pulled her back to the room and help her sit. "Tonight I am Jack and you are Kimberly."
"Kimmy, my friends call me Kimmy."
"Then it's Jack and Kimmy tonight. Let's get to know each other." He smiled and poured her some wine.
At first the conversation was very slow but soon he had her talking about many different things. He found her very charming.
In the end he had the Roses sent to her place and they went for a walk.
"I had fun tonight." He said.
"Me too."
"Can we go out again sometime?" He was hopeful.
"You mean it?" She asked.
He laughed, "Believe it or not I find you refreshing and a delight. I would like to see if there is something here. If your worried about work don't be you work for the other lawyers."
"Ok I would like that." She smiled up at him then he leaned down and kissed her.
He felt something for her the day she was hired but she would run away every time he got near. This time he was not going to let her run no more.
They walked for awhile holding hands. Then he called his driver to pick them up and he dropped her off at her door.
On his drive home he called Tommy, "You'll never guess who the harp was. Remember the girl I hired about a year ago. It was her."
"The one you were crushing over?" Thomas asked.
"Yes, that one and she has agreed to date me. I feel like I'm 16 again."
