    For 6 days he was away, and Lee
was only just starting to get into a routine. She had become
friendly with the boutique owner, Claire, who would send her
suitable dresses and outfits for different events and meetings she
was required to attend without her having to actually go to the
boutique, a situation which suited both to perfection.
    She had become particularly
involved with the orphanage, having managed to talk the committee
into a charity event to raise funds for the orphanage, something
which had not previously been allowed to happen. She had quickly
become friendly with the children offering to teach them how to
perform dance routines which she hoped they could perform at the
charity event later that month. To achieve this she had tried to
organise to meet up with them at least every second day to
practice, prior to her visits with Jim.
    On the Friday 7 days after his
departure Lee had once again found herself with the children in the
orphanage, something she greatly looked forward to. She had heard
from Yanis the previous evening in which he had told her that he
would still be there the next day, and Lee had sighed at the
thought of having to attend the annual charity gala the next night
alone. She had not yet had to make a personal appearance at a large
event herself, and had not been looking forward to it, worried that
she would be lost and out of place.
    However, she had put this all
aside as she happily worked with the children on their dance
routine.
    Approaching the orphanage,
Yanis Demitri, had frowned. His early arrival back home that
evening had been unexpected he knew, but when Lee had not been at
the house he had been disappointed. When he had found out from his
driver where she was, he had frowned even more, telling him that he
was no longer required for the evening and that he would pick her
up himself.
    As he entered the building he
had been approached by a tall good looking woman
    “Yanis, how lovely to see
you”
    The smiling woman said moving
forward to receive a warm hug from the tall man before her
    “Rachel, you look as lovely as
ever”
    He replied, flashing her a
genuine smile. Rachel Hunt the orphanage administrator gave him a
playful punch
    “Charmer” she said although she
had flushed a little
    “Is Lee still here” he
asked
    Rachel’s smile deepened
    “Yes, the meeting finished
about an hour ago, Yanis what a girl, congratulations you are a
lucky man”
    She said suddenly remembering
their engagement
    “She actually managed to talk
Mrs Jones into agreeing to a fund raising concert… Mrs Jones…I
never thought I would see the day…and she did it so well that the
woman left here feeling that it had all been her idea..I’ve never
met anybody so charming..accept of course you” she said with a
little laugh
    Yanis frowned slightly, not
really sure why
    “If the meeting is over..why is
she still here” he asked in confusion
    “Oh didn’t she tell you” Rachel
said in surprise
    “After the meetings, and every
other night she spends some time with the kids..she’s teaching a
group of them how to dance…even the boys…something called street
dancing..they love it”
    Yanis tried to hide the cold
look in his eyes as he asked where they were. Rachel directed him
to the main living room and he moved to where he knew it to be. As
he reached the room he had stood within the dark connecting door
where nobody could see him to watch the scene before him.
    Lee stood sideways on to him
facing the group. She wore leggings and a tea-shirt which hugged
her perfect figure as she directed the eight boys and girls ranging
in ages from 6 – 12, as music played which he briefly recognised as
being in the charts.
    The children where
concentrating on a move in which they stepped to the side before
twisting their bodies and then their head from side to side. Lee
had given encouragement to each and everyone of the children by
name, smiling
