Within Sapphire University.
Page Lance (roommate)
🔴 Hey, Mum. Sorry I missed your calls—I just got back from work. It’s late, but I wanted to let you know I’m fine. I promise I’ll drop by this weekend, alright.
Murmuring into the mic, her free hand work the dormitory lock until it clicked open.
Nudged the door shut behind her with a quiet thud, Page sent the voice message. With a sigh, she flipped on the light.
Page Lance (roommate)
* hand flew to her chest*
"Mother of pearls, Simon… Wha— what are you doing here? You never sleep in the dorm room."
Simon(FL)
*glance around in daze*
. . .
Simon(FL)
*sits up*
"Shoot, I doze off."
Page Lance (roommate)
(That explains it.)
Simon(FL)
*glance over the bed for her phone*
Page Lance (roommate)
yawns*
"Hope it wasn’t important. I’m going to hit the shower—it’s been a long day."
*dropped the things she was carrying onto the bed*
Swiftly snatching her phone off the bed, Simon glanced over just as Page shut the bathroom door behind her.
Simon(FL)
*switched phone on*
(As expected Harold texted and tried calling. I even got a text from Gareth.)
Simon(FL)
*run fingers through hair*
(How did I let this happen!?)
She thought back to the quick stop she’d made at the dorm—just enough time to toss her things inside after tutoring the twins. With an hour to herself, she flopped onto the bed.
Simon(FL)
*open Gareth text message*
[I don’t plan on rescheduling our dinner plan tomorrow. I’ve asked Harold to resolve the matter with your dress. He will be waiting to pick you up once your classes' session ends tomorrow.]
Simon(FL)
*sigh, flop back onto bed*
"So much for wanting to get everything done today."
*turn off phone*
Meanwhile outside Sapphire University on the Opposite side of the road, inside a Rolls-Royce parked running.
Harold
*glance over the rearview mirror at the silhouette in the back seat bathed in a soft glow by lit-up computer.*
Gareth Nelson (ML)
"I expect everything is taken care of."
Harold
* turned his gaze on the road ahead*
"Everything she needs will be in the living room by tonight."
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*pull phone out.*
Gareth Nelson (ML)
* notice she read the massage not to long ago.*
"Let's go."
*turn phone off*
Harold
*start engine and drove off*
Vance Nelson
~bark~
{What do you mean are reservation for tomorrow has been cancelled.}
Reservationist
{Sir if you're worried about your money—}
Vance Nelson
{Do you really think I care about the money.}
Vance Nelson
{I went through a lot of trouble to get that reservation.}
Reservationist
{I understand your frustration sir. But like I said before, all reservations for tomorrow have been canceled, including yours. If you would like to dine at Royale Restaurants, you will have to make a new reservation.}
Vance Nelson
*run hand through hair*
Monica Thames
*open door*
"What's going on Vance, I could hear you from the shower."
Vance Nelson
" The Receptionist from Royale restaurant called, they cancel our dinner reservation."
Monica Thames
*eyes widen*
"NO! Our dinner reservation is tomorrow, they can't just have it cancelled, I have spent a whole year waiting patiently just to eat there."
Monica Thames
*lock eyes with him*
"Tell me you're going to do something about this Vance."

Harold
*open backseat door*
"Lady Simon I hope your day was well."
Simon(FL)
*enter vehicle*
"It was, and "I apologize for the trouble I caused yesterday."
Harold
"Nothing to worry about, that's why I'm here."
Simon(FL)
*nod head in understanding*
Harold
*smile, and shut door with thud*
Simon(FL)
(Was Gareth in the car yesterday I can faintly smell his cologne.)
Simon(FL)
*watch Herold enter and sit in the drive seat.*
Simon(FL)
(No, I must be imagining things.)
*play with string of hairs*
Simon(FL)
*glance at string of hairs in her hand*
...
Simon(FL)
*Eyes widen at the site of the living room*
Natalie
"Lady Simon welcome back"
Simon(FL)
*turn to look at Natalie*
"What is all this? "
Simon(FL)
(I expected one dress why is there so many.)
Natalie
"These are the clothes Sir Gareth brought for you."
Natalie
"He wanted to let you know that if there is something you don't like, have Harold return it."
Natalie
"He also would like to know the color dress you will pick for tonight dinner."
Simon(FL)
"Is he busy at the moment."
Natalie
"As we speak, he's with Dr. Ray in his office."
Simon(FL)
(Dr. Ray, now that I think about it, I have never met him. At times like this I would still be on the premises tutoring the twins.)
Simon(FL)
("No matter, today will be his last day as Gareth's doctor.")
Natalie
"I'll go ahead and let Sir Gareth know you've arrived."
Simon(FL)
"Before you head to his office, please bring me a glass of water."
Natalie
"Yes right away. "
As Simon waited for the glass of water, her eyes roamed the dresses, finding one that caught her eye. She walked towards it.
Natalie
"Lady Simon, your glass of water. "
Simon(FL)
"Thanks, please have Gareth know I pick this color dress."
*point at the dress*
Natalie
(That was quick. )
Natalie
"Yes of course. "
*watches as Simon walked up the stairs, carrying both the glass of water and the dress.*
Dr. Ray
*surprise*
"What do you mean you don't need me to bring your medication anymore? Without it, you'll be in constant agony."
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*glare at him*
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*clutch fist*
(As if the medication ever works.)
Gareth Nelson (ML)
"You've been replace, it's that simple you don't need to come here anymore."
Dr. Ray
*freeze on the spot*
...
Gareth Nelson (ML)
"What is it? "
Natalie
*open door*
"Sir Gareth lady Simon is here, she already made a decision on a dress."
Gareth Nelson (ML)
"What's the color!?"
Gareth Nelson (ML)
"Alright, you're dismissed. Have Harold come to my office and show Ray his way out."
Natalie
*nod*
"Doctor"
*open door and hold it*
Dr. Ray
"I'll take my leave then excuse me."
*walk out*
Dr. Ray
(I didn't just hear that right, Sir Gareth has a woman in his mention. So I wasn't delusional early, when I passed the living room and saw the dresses and accessories.)
Dr. Ray
(Why is it that I never caught sight of her, don't tell me she's the new doctor. No impossible he wouldn't let a woman touch him, let alone have one in his mention.)
Dr. Ray
(Gareth is a short temper man, what kind of woman want to be with him, especially in his condition.)
Dr. Ray
(The second I'm out here I should quickly report this..)

World News
"In our latest news for today, Royale restaurant known for its exquisite dishes only a few people have had the chance to try, finally announced why they have been calling and canceling reservations for the past two days."
World News
"It turns out the owner of the restaurant will be making an appearance for the first time in public, booking the restaurant for the whole evening today."
World News
"Which is unfortunate for those who had to din there this evening..."
Monica Thames
*clutch phone*
"Why did it have to be today of all days? I spent the whole day yesterday papering, and for what!?"
*glance back at news on phone*
World News
"People are now wondering who is the owner of this multi-millionaire restau—"
Monica Thames
*tossed phone on the floor.*
Harold
*fix Gareth tie*
"All done sir. "
Gareth Nelson (ML)
"Have you made copies of the contracts I gave to you earlier."
Harold
"They are in the car, sir."
Gareth Nelson (ML)
"Alright, take me downstairs."
Wheel Gareth out the closet room and pass his bedroom Harold halted. Just as he pushed Gareth into the hall, the door opposite them open.
Harold
(I'm so used to seeing her with caramel hair, I almost took Lady Simon for a stranger. So this is her real hair color.)
Gareth Nelson (ML)
*clear throat*
"We should get going."
Outside of Gareth Mention
Simon(FL)
*glance at Gareth*
Gareth Nelson (ML)
"What is it?"
Simon(FL)
"Nothing, I just realized it's are first time riding in the same vehicle together."
Glancing out the car window, Simon was unaware Gareth's gaze was still on her.
Meanwhile, at the Royale Restaurant front entrance.
World News
"This is World News, approximately thousands have been standing in front of the Royal restaurant all day waiting, just to get a glimpse of the owner. Which begs the question everyone is asking, is this really the first time the owner has been seen in public or not?"
Monica Thames
* take eyes of the TV*
"This isn't fair, Vance. We should be on our way to that restaurant. Do they have any idea whose reservation they canceled?"
Vance Nelson
"I know how much you want to eat at that restaurant today. My men couldn't find anything about the owner, but as soon as we know who it is, I'll make sure we won't make another reservation there."
Monica Thames
*eyes lit up*
"You're right, I'm sure if the owner knows who we are it won't be a problem."
Background Paparazzi
"Over there, I think that's the vehicle."
Upon hearing this, both Monica and Vance quickly turn their gaze to the TV.
World News
"This just end, the moment everyone has been waiting for, after 15 years."
In anticipation, the crowd watches as the driver moved to open the backseat door. The second Simon stepped out, a collective hush fell over the crowd, their breath caught in their throats by her stunning beauty. However, when a wheelchair glide out from the shadows of the car’s interior, the crowd’s eyes widened in shock.
Monica Thames
*Drop remote*
...
Monica Thames
"T—that.... That's my ex."
