Ria's Testing Begins

As they exited the Congressional building Abjul told Maelyn, "Well I think you did very well today! Especially with that last bill. You had made enough of a good impression that you won over Amos and he is one of the hardest ones to impress!"

  "I was just glad to get Amos's approval of the bill itself." Maelyn replied in exasperation, "Cause he came across as so negative and closed minded on ALL of the bills they presented today that I was surprised he decided to support it even after you and Congressman Rakim explained why you both supported my response!"

  "Yeah. Him supporting you after Rakim provided what you had done to support his son Omar was a surprise." Abjul shared then wondered, "And, truth be told, he is one of the ones I don't expect to support ANYTHING that Ria puts forth tomorrow! Cause in his mind she is essentially a prostitute and he has vehemently voted against her being considered a candidate every step of the way!"
