The telephone rang and i rushed over to pick it.

"Good morning, Mr. Ramundaj." Came my secretary's voice over the phone, "How many times have i told you Jonah, just call me Raymond when I'm home will ya? We are after all friends remember?" Heckler.J.Lawsner, my secretary and fellow high school graduate. he came in to work for me 15 years ago when i just started off and is now my most trusted member of staff. I admit not many people would have a male secretary working in their office,but how many guys but how many guys actually have a secretarial degree?

"Yessir, Raymond. There'll be a meeting with stock holders this evening sir, will you be attending?" And somehow he always finds the right timing to remind me of my worst meetings and most hated events.

"Ahh yes that meeting, yes i will go Lawsner. It's important to keep those old bastards happy, you know, they do own half the company."

"S o it is sir, it'll be held in the same place - the boardroom- and the menu shall be of the usual itiniary plus the rations u keep for 'tight' situations?"

"Yes and Lawsner, basketball today? During lunch so that you can come out of office without much rumours. Don't worry about lunch, I'll be doing it, and is your girlfriend coming?"

"Sure thing, and yes she is coming, with her friend too. I don't wanna leave Kasumi alone and the both of them get along well so will that be alright?"

"Sure, sure, at the usual place ok? Be there." I hang up the phone.
