Mrs Johns:(smiles) We are fine

Mrs Smith: What of my little angel Dylan

Mrs Johns: He is fine

Mr Smith: Have a sit

Mr Johns: Not to worry,we just came her for Sunny

Mrs Smith:(Looks at her husband in confusion) Am sorry,we don't quite understand

Mrs Johns: What we mean is that,it's time for us to take Sunny back

Mrs Smith: Did you have a talk with Sunny about this

Mr Johns: She wouldn't pick our calls

Mr Smith: When did you leave her with us?

Mrs Smith: You both are really funny,after all these years,you never came to visit her,you never even wished her on her birthday.....

Mr Smith: Honey

Mrs Smith: Husband let me handle this,(raises her voice) I was the one who took care of her all these while even up till now,now that she's all grown up and making so much money,you want to take her away

Mrs Johns: Margaret,it's not what you think

Mrs Smith: Then what is it,in fact this issue is not in our hands,it's up to Sunny to decide,and seeing from the perspective that she has never picked your calls shows that she hates you to ...the ...core

Mr Johns: Margaret,how dare.....

Mr Smith: (Cuts in) It's time for you to leave

Mr Johns:(Stunned) Mr Smith,are you chasing us away

Mr Smith: I am not,I am simply asking you to leave

Mrs Johns: Honey let's leave, we'll talk to Sunny ourselves

Mr Johns: Ok(leaves)

Mr Smith: Honey,don't be bothered about them, Sunny won't give them a chance

Mrs Smith: I know

A LARGE VILLA IN PARIS

Mr Louis: Mr parks,2hat do you intend to do

Mr Parks:(sighs) I don't think your plan is working

Mr Louis: But at least they are getting closer,but I do have a question,why do you want Miss Sunny to get married to one of your children?

Mr Parks: Ever since she started working with me,have always seen her as my daughter,it would just my feelings if another family takes her away

Mr Louis: So what do you intend to do?

Mr Parks: Well go ahead with plan B,we just need a perfect timing,I hope everything is set

Mr Louis: Yes, sir

Mr Parks:(Smiles and relaxes his back on a chair) Paris,has never been better than this

IN SUNNY'S OFFICE

Sunny:(Shocked) What?

Skyler: Sunny,why are you so shocked?

Sunny: You went out on a date with Mr David?

Skyler: It's not a date,I just payed back my debt

Sunny: A debt that he took you to your house, Skyler this is unethical

Skyler: Look who's talking,didn't Mr Micheal take you for a ride too

Sunny: Hello,I drove myself,I even had to become his driver that night,just to pick up his rude girlfriend (pouts)

Skyler: Talking about his girlfriend,don't you know her?

Sunny: I don't know her and I don't want to know her,all I know is that someone needs to cut down her wings

Skyler: Suuunnnyyy

Sunny: What?

Skyler: Are you jealous

Sunny: Of Mimi?(laughs) She's below my class and her boyfriend is not my taste period

Skyler: Mimi Campbell owns one of the most fashionable boutique in the city and she's a fashionista,unlike you who is always dressed up in office wears,though you're sexy in them

Sunny: And the boutique was given to her by Mr Micheal

Skyler: Sunny, and you don't know her?

Sunny: Forget about it

Skyler: That reminds me,Sunny you really need to take care of yourself,the workload on you has been too much these days

Sunny: And that Mr Gabriel has been driving me crazy these days,and am really loosing it,he is the only one who is been cocky, acting Almighty and all

Skyler: I know ,how come he is only fierce to you,maybe he is still holding grudges

Sunny: Have really reached my limit with him,if he taunts me this time,I'll really beat him up

Skyler: (gasps) Please don't

Sunny: You can't believe he wants me to practice martial arts with him today,and I had to agree all in the name of I don't want to anger Mr Parks

Skyler: Oh no,and speaking about that isn't it time to practice with him

Sunny:(Her telephone rings ,she puts her head on the table)Fuck

Skyler:(Laughs) Busted

AT GABRIEL'S OFFICE

Gabriel:(Slams the table) You were supposed to be here by 1:00pm and now this is 2:00pm

Sunny:(Keeps a straight face) With all due respect,Mr Gabriel I am not your slave,I am the personal assistant of this company,and my work has been greatly overloaded with you and your brothers' useless work and I must say that yours is the most inhumane,you make me do unnecessary works asive you do not have your own personal secretary and if not that I do not want your father's trouble,I do not tolerate nonsense

Gabriel: Seems like you're done with your talk let's go

Sunny:(Scoffs) Such an asshole

AT THE COMPANY'S GYM CENTER

Sunny:(Sighs) Is this all you've got

Gabriel:(Breathing heavily) Am just been easy on you

Sunny:(Scoffs) Have knocked you down five times in a row,how do you explain that? Admit defeat you're no match for me,am done (Reaches her hand out for him to stand up,as Gabriel holds her hand,he suddenly pulls her and flips her over,just as he is about to stand up,he slips and falls on her

Gabriel:(Stammers) I.....I....

Sunny: You're heavy,get off me

Gabriel:(Stands up) Am sorry

Sunny: It's okay,am not bothered, although you deliberately fell on me I won't react

Gabriel: What? Me?(Laughs) Miss Sunny who do you think you are? Oh,you think I have feelings for you?

Sunny: You're not my type

Gabriel:(Walks up to her) You're not my type either,and don't pretend like you do t like me

Sunny: Gabriel,are you itching to get beaten?

Gabriel:(Gets angry) Sunny how dare you?

Sunny: I dare you (Gabriel wants to kick her,but sunny dodges and beat him up)

Mr parks:(Enters and shouts) What in God's name is this sight am seeing?

Gabriel: Dad

Sunny: Mr parks

Mr parks: Both of you,at the phoenix villa by 5:00pm sharp (wants to leave,stops) and Gabriel go treat that cut on your head you're bleeding(leaves)

Mr Louis: And you have a bump too,a woman beat you (shakes his head and leaves)

Gabriel:(Faces Sunny) Look at what you've done

Sunny: You caused it and let me clear the air I do not like you and will never do(she leaves)

AT THE CAFETERIA

Skyler: Sunny you're really something

Sunny: What did I do this time

Skyler: Are you kidding me,everyone is talking about how Mr Gabriel ended up having a cut and a bump because you beat him up

Sunny: He deserves it,that i***t thinks I like him

Skyler:(Laughs) Oh my God,now that I think of it you two fit well, Gabriel parks weds Sunny Johns

Sunny: A fantasy that will never come true

Skyler: I heard Mr parks saw everything

Sunny: He is pretty mad,he called for a meeting with us at his villa

Skyler: You're in trouble again

Sunny: That reminds me,I need to start going or else

Skyler: It's going to be worse, we're picking up Dylan tomorrow for his birthday don't forget

Sunny:(Sighs) I feel like am just a stranger

Skyler: That's why I said you should loosen up

Sunny:(Stands up) Goodbye Skyler (she leaves)

AT THE PHOENIX VILLA

David: Did dad set us up

Micheal:(Sighs) I need to go see my babies

Gabriel: This is so absurd

Mr Louis: This is Mr parks order

Gabriel: Why of dad?

Mr Louis: He went to Chicago

David: So he left us here with all the workload and he is out there exploring the work this is so unfair

Mr Louis: Mind you Mr David, Miss Sunny is the one doing most of the workload (looks at Gabriel) while some of you are just there causing trouble for the poor girl

Gabriel: Mr Louis,you don't know what happened

Micheal: You still raised your hand on her

David (Laughs) But he got whined hard by her

Gabriel: It's not funny

Sunny:(Enters) Sorry am .....late

Micheal: What is Miss Sunny doing here

David: Hello, Miss Sunny

Sunny: Hello, Mr David (sits down) Mr Louis

Louis: Miss Sunny,long time no see

Sunny: Why is everyone here? I thought Mr parks only called for me and this scumbag

Gabriel: Mind your words or else....

Sunny:(Cuts in) You'll get another cut from me

Louis: Please everyone let's be orderly,no one is a kid here,Mr parks told me to pass a message to you all,which must be followed accordingly or else you do not want to his his wrath

Sunny: So what is the message

Louis: He said everyone must move to this house latest 9:00pm this night

Everyone: What??

Sunny: But why does it have to include me??

Louis: He said no one else can monitor them better than you, I think you should all start moving right now,when you get here Mrs Lawrence will show you your rooms,good night

(Mr Louis leaves,they all look at each other,they all stand up after the other with sunny leaving first)
