VIOLA
After the phone call I sit down. I’m stunned. I can’t believe it.
Amber looks at me. “Are you okay?”
“I can’t believe it,” I say. I’m in a daze.
“What is it? Are you okay?”
“That was Lara.”
“Your boss. The one who fired you?”
I nod.
“And?” Amber asks curiously. She’s getting stressed and thinks it’s something bad.
“She just asked me to come and work for her again,” I say at last.
“What?” she asks, incredulous. She’s never heard of someone being fired and then rehired by their boss so fast if ever. “What’s the catch?”
“None,” I say. “None at all.” I told Lara I’d think about it but what is there to think about. There are no other opportunities like this. I call her back.
“Okay, I’ll be more than happy to come back. I just have one request,” I say.
“What’s that?” Lara asks sounding worried.
“I’ll start after Rick’s wedding, okay?”
“I was hoping…” Lara begins and then trails off. “Sure. Okay. Done. I’ll see you on Monday.”
“His wedding is still going ahead?” I ask just to be sure.
“Yes it is,” Lara says.
We end the call and I sit down. A smile slowly as Amber looks at me. “And?”
