Saoirse retrieves Sterling’s order from the back room. “No need to carry this yourself; allow me to help you!” Sterling may be out of the game for quite some time, but he knows when he sees a beautiful woman; he can’t allow her to slip on by. Saoirse is so use to doing everything herself; seeing Sterling though; she’s not ashamed in allowing him to help. “May I ask who all this is for?” Saoirse asks; “Well Saoirse, I have an obsessed sister!” “She loves your products; and that fact that everything is naturally made.” “You’ve got quite the business with her only; she just mentions your name.” “Sister?” She says; rather surprised; “certainly you know her. She’s tall with blonde hair and green eyes!” “She’s in here about every chance she gets.” Saoirse seems a bit perplexed. “Do you mean Violet?!” “You guessed it.” “My kid sister spends her money as quick as she makes it.” “I never realized she had a brother.” “I’m so sorry for the loss of your father and mother.” Sterling looks quickly at Saoirse and gives her half a smile. “Thank you Saoirse.” She can see the look in his eyes. “You want to maybe grab a cup of coffee?” Saoirse asks as they head back inside. “I’ve got some made in the break room; maybe we can have a bite to eat?” Sterling thinks about it and says; “sure and thank you; that’s awfully sweet.” I’m not sure where this heading but so far so good! Come back tomorrow if you would.!

I can tell that your heart and talent lies in story telling. When I first started reading your works I was not ready for this approach that is atypical amongst the poets here but I think it is very creative and a refreshing change very nice
Neither are we, but it is enjoyable to be on the journey, lovely write
