A company number appears on Amelia's phone screen. " So which company number is this?" Amelia asks herself with surprise. She picked up the call, " Hello, you are receiving a call from the National Central Museum," company agent speak out. " I am listening, Oh! Oh! I remember you are agent Thomas," Amelia said. " Yes you are right Amelia James," Thomas replied to Amelia. "Am sorry Thomas I didn't recognise this number for the first time, but I don't have this number in my phone contact. What I have is your other phone number. "Yes, Alright Amelia. I hope you are feeling very well, how is your business? I hope everything is fine." "Yes, Thomas I'm very fine and we thank God for business. "Ok, it's a very nice business deal, do you hear me Amelia?" Yes I'm hearing you Thomas. " Our museum assistant manager in the artwork perspective department, commanded me to inform you that our company needs you to sketch and establish five categories of fine art cover posters. You are to sketch the following: one, leopard chasing zebra; two, Giraffe grazing; three, flock of bush goats; Four, first world war arsenal." " But remember, each particular sketch poster should be provided with three copies and also should be wider and lengthy enough in dimension." Thomas continues describing and explaining to Amelia. " Alright Thomas, I understand, just consider it done. But when did your company need all this stuff? "I think not more than the next two weeks," Amelia replied. "Ok thank you Thomas. "Hear you later Amelia ". They cut off the call. " What a big deal is this? Indeed today is very special for me Sarah. " Of course Amelia, I realize. " I can remember when I last visited this very amazing museum, the place was really fascinating, " Sarah said. " But I think it's time for me to leave now Amelia, I forgot to tell you that I left the patient at the hospital, he is my junior brother suffering from chronic ulcer." Sarah said " But why didn't you stay with him Sarah," "He is with my mother, that's why I wish to take leave and visit you, as you know the distance was not too far to reach where you are."Sarah said "Oh! Sorry for him, I don't know that he is not feeling fine.Okay how is he feeling? " Amelia said " He is feeling better," Sarah replied. " May God see him throughout and wish him quick recovery." Amelia said " Amen," Sarah replied. " Please Sarah, don't forget to extend my greetings to your mum and tell her,I wish a quick recovery for her son." " Okay don't worry Amelia I will let her know." " Thank you, they both said to each other, while smirking. "B-But Sarah we didn't conclude our previous discussion." " Please don't worry my Amelia, we will discuss it on w******p later." "Okay no problem," Amelia replied. Amelia escorts Sarah to the outside street where she parked her motor car. Sarah opened and got into the car, where she left Amelia hanging out along the street. They said goodbye to each other. Amelia returned to her gallery store where she met with her two regular customers. " Nice to meet you, you are welcomed," Amelia said to her customers. "Nice to meet you Amelia," they replied to Amelia. "As you see , we are affectionate couples, we want you to sketch out your fascinating fine art, showing me and my lovely baby." The men among the couple speak out to Amelia while his lady keeps staring at him with an intense smile, leaning on each other's body. " So please Amelia when are you ready, I mean the period you are free and available." " I think you can resume by next tomorrow, " Amelia replied to them, holding her waist with her arm and chuckling. "That's very fine Amelia but how about the price," Uhm I-I think you are going to pay $80. "Well, no problem, let us pay for an advance before the final payment." They pay half of the money to Amelia and went away. Amelia closed her store, it was time for launch. She went into their home where she first met with her young cute sister named Juliet. Juliet ran fast and stretched her arms to hug Amelia. Amelia kneeled and hugged Juliet back. "Oh!, my cutie, where have you been today?" Amelia spoke out to juliet. " "Uhm I-I'm busy working mum sis Lia." Juliet replies. Amelia stood up and held the arm of Juliet. They were walking very gently and headed toward the parlor. " Sis Juli, did mum finish preparing our lunch? As you see I'm feeling hungry." " I think she has finished, sister Lia." "Okay, that's good," Amelia replies. They reached the parlor, Amelia proceeded to the kitchen, while Juliet stayed and sat on the couch. Amelia was in the kitchen. " Mum, how is your work? I know you were too busy today." Amelia said to her mother. " Of course Amelia, as you see, I'm always trying to make your home better." " Indeed my lovely mum." " So please Amelia don't go far. I want to have some crucial discussion with you immediately after lunch." "O-Okay mum." Lunch is ready to serve, mum, Juliet and Amelia all sit around the dinning table where all the dishes, cooler and bowl are filled with delicious foods . Amelia was first to start chopping the food, as she felt too hungry. " Uhm! mum I never eat delicious food like this, mum sighed heavenly and kept staring at Amelia. "Uhm I see you 're starving," mum speaks out to Amelia. Amelia nodded and looked down in shyness. Juliet liked juice too much, she was engaged in sipping orange juice in a small cup. They were all very cheerful to enjoy that great day lunch. After they are done with lunch, They all rest for a few moments. Their discussion started, where mum commanded Juliet to get out and wash some appliances. " As you know Amelia, we want to pay for your sister's school fees by next week. I want you to try and raise some funds, because this time around I don't want the school principal to send them out like what happened so many times." Amelia sighed heavenly and shifted to leaning loosely on the couch. " O-Okay mum but you know how I owe so much outstanding debt that I want to pay it back next month." "I really know Amelia, but at least you have to squeeze. I surely know that you want to promote your business better. And I'm aware of how you are struggling to make our lives better." "O-Okay, really mum. What distresses me every time is the outstanding debt we had with various provision stores and what is more terrible is that we haven't paid even a quarter of what we owe them." "O-Oh my God! Every day suffering and difficulties never stops, Amelia yelled out. " S-Sorry Amelia calm down, I'm sure we will never continue like this, God knows how bad we feel and I believe that he will see us through." "Indeed mum, I also believe that.". "Now we don't have any plan but to continue praying to God for a solution to our problems. They didn't finish the conversation, Screaming from outside cut off their discussion. "Oh! Oh my God! What's happening? What's that?" Mum and Amelia yelled out and stood up very quickly and ran toward the outside very scared.
