The Proud Boss Lady.

“ I love, love your mansion. It's beautiful. I am so proud of you Jackie. You deserve the best." Jess said through the phone as she face-timed her twin.

“Thank you, Jessy, you've been my number one fan. Thanks for all the words of encouragement. How's work at the salon coming up by the way?" She inquired

“It's going on good, the customers love our services and I'm getting good daily grades for my finals. Each day my assessors come around, I get good grades that are going to accumulate to my final grade. I'm hoping for a better grade though." She told.

“You will, you're one brilliant girl. Go for gold and get a man while you're at it." She teased.

“Well, I've been trying to get closer to Miguel, he's a nice man but he's closed himself and his heart to love due to the loss of his wife." She explained.

“You need to make him know about your feelings, Jess. You need to know his stand whether he feels the same and he's scared to put his feelings out there, or he doesn't feel the same way." She advised.

“It's easy to say for you," she sighed.

“You will be fine, just be you and he would come around. I gotta go. See you later." Jackie dropped the call.

“You girls look beautiful." Trudy gushed at her granddaughter and her friend.

“Thanks, grams." Amelia hugged her.

“Have fun, but stay safe girls." she winked at them as they headed out the door. Trudy smiled at their retreating figures. She was proud of her granddaughter and how smart and fast she was growing up.

She's going to be fine. She assured herself dashing off to the kitchen.

Rita drove to the party blasting music in her car and singing along with Amelia. Mathew had wanted to pick her up, but she insisted she came with Amelia.

Lauren sat fidgetting with her fingers uncomfortably. Keane had dashed out to only God knows where leaving her all by herself. She stood up from the seat and headed out just to clear her head. The whole fake boyfriend-girlfriend thing was taking a toll on her.
