The message from Sheryl comes about a day later.

”Hi! Pleased to know you. I know a very good Pilates class that I go to once every week. Would you like to find out more?”

”That sounds great! Is the price affordable or is it more on the premium end? I have a limited budget.”

”Oh don’t worry about it. It is one of the most affordable options available in the city because it wants to be that way. Come on in next Monday evening at this address and I’ll see you there!”

”Great! See you!”

And just like that the appointment is set in stone. Charlotte waits in anticipation eagerly, she can’t wait to join Sheryl and others in her first ever Pilates class. It is definitely a break of departure from her usual routine.

Charlotte eagerly packs her bag for the weekend. It will be a long weekend this week.

Ken looks over to the horizon and drinks his unsweetened tea. He likes it just the way it is. His career is going smoothly and his job is a breeze with the new superstar on the team. He decides to head to the gym to work out after the day is over.

“Hi Ken, can I disturb you for a moment? This is important.” a colleague whispers.

“Sure, yes I will be right over.”

He tidies his desk before heading off to see the colleague. Meanwhile, Eden is fully in his zone at his desk. Completing a ton of PowerPoint slides and paperwork at the same time. He is a machine.

“So what’s going on? Anything important for me?”

“Yes, we are in a bit of a pinch regarding this CEO named Jeff. I will need your help to contact him as soon as possible.”

“Sure leave it to me. I’ll see it done.”
