INT. RERE’S OFFICE- MORNING
(Rere walks into a busy office, staffs are walking up and down doing their jobs. Rere walks up to the receptionist)
Rere: (smiling) hi
Receptionist: (without looking up) what can I do for you?
Rere: I want to see Alex Ehosa
Receptionist: do you have an appointment?
Rere: no
Receptionist: then am sorry, you can’t see him. He is a very busy man
Rere: maybe if you tell him that Rere Shapiro is here to see him
Receptionist: (looks up at Rere as she talks sarcastically) at the mention of your name, are you expecting him to drop everything he is doing and run to you
Rere: yes because am his wife
Receptionist: (looking shock) oh my God am so sorry (comes out from behind her desk and walks to Rere) I didn’t know
Rere: (smiling) it is fine, just take me to see him
Receptionist: please follow me (the Receptionist walks Rere to the front of an office. She went to the secretary whose desk is in front of the office) hey, there is someone here to see the boss
Secretary: (talking harshly) are you dumb? Didn’t I specifically tell you that the boss is going to be busy today and won’t see any client?
Receptionist: you did, but this is his wife
Secretary: his wife? (Receptionist nods, the secretary walks to Rere) Mrs Ehosa, I am sorry but you can’t see your husband right now, he is in a very important meeting
Rere: (faces the Receptionist) where is this meeting taking place (the Receptionist points to the office next to them. Rere smiles) thank you (she walks to the door of this office and opens it. Inside this office there were about five people. Four man including Alex and Arin the only lady among them. The secretary comes in a hurry)
Secretary: (talking in a loud angry voice) Mrs Ehosa, I said you can’t see your husband
Rere: (in a harsh voice) it is Ms Shapiro, now get out
Alex: (sighs) you may go (the secretary leaves)
Rere: (smiling) I am sorry for barging into your meeting, am Rere Shapiro
Colin: (smiles as he stood up) oh my God, you are his wife. The woman we have been waiting for. (Stretches his hand for a hand shake) nice to meet you
Rere: (shakes him with a smile) nice to meet you too (the other two men stands up and shakes her too) I am sorry happy to meet you guys
Femi: we are thrilled to finally meet the woman who stole our friend's heart
Rere: I am so sorry for bailing on lunch the other day, work came calling
Colin: he explained to us, we know you are busy helping the President
Rere: thank you for understanding and I am a woman who keeps my promise. So how about lunch this afternoon, it is on me
Arin: (bluntly) we don’t have time for that now, as you can see we are busy
Bola: (he stands up and walks towards Rere) unfortunately that is true but we can release your man to you
Colin: you guys should go enjoy yourselves
Alex: there won’t be a need for that, like you guys said we are busy
Femi: we will continue the meeting and we will brief you when you are back
Colin: (whispers to Rere) even though he was trying to be the big man and trying to explain why you won’t be available for lunch, we could see that he was hurt by your absence (Rere smiles)
Alex: I heard that and it is not true
Femi: (teasing) of course it is and we know you want to go
Arin: (stands up and packs the document on her side of the table) we will continue this in the conference room (she walks out of the room)
Colin: (packs his own document with the other two) have a nice date (they leave the room. Alex stand up and goes to his desk)
Rere: (sighs and she walks towards him) please don’t tell me you are still mad at me
Alex: (exclaims in a loud voice) of course I am mad at you, you went to Lagos and you didn’t think to inform me
Rere: and for that I am sorry
Alex: that is al…
Rere; (cut in sharply) all I ever say, yes because that is the right thing to say. I am sorry Alex and I promise you, it won’t happen again (Alex expression softens, Rere moves toward him and held his hand) say you forgive me (he shoves her away softly and she holds his hand again) please (she starts to blink her eyes)
Alex: (sees her blinking eyes and starts laughing) stop that
Rere: say you forgive me
Alex: I will forgive you if I have the whole of today
Rere: done
Alex: with your phone switched off
Rere: (sighs) done
Alex: then I forgive you (he kisses her)
