to see three of my favorite customers.  Where are the other two?”
     
    “Not here yet.  We can move into our flat early, so Aimee flew back.  She is going with the ladies to the spa.”  Lexi was talking so fast.
     
    “Lexi, you need some decaf.”  Piper laughed
     
    “I know, I stopped at this new coffee shop; they have the best latte, but I think I drank one too many.”
     
    Aimee grinned, she loved being back.  “Lexi, you know those things not only make us hyper, they are not low-fat.”
     
    “Like you can talk, you have some form of coffee all the time.”
     
    “I know, I was just pointing it out.”  Aimee looked around the empty restaurant.  “You are having a slow day.”
     
    “Business has been slow all summer.  I am praying we see business pick up when classes start back in a few days.”
     
    “Let us know if you need any help. We will do what we can.”  Aimee gave him a cheerful smile.
     
    The girls ordered their food and made plans to go shopping.  When Frank returned with their orders, the girls bowed their heads down in prayer.  Aimee loved being back and surrounded by people her own age with the same believes.
     
    While they ate Aimee, filled the two of them in on everything that had happened while she was in the States.  They both knew about the Will and Aimee’s position, but she didn’t share all the details over the phone.  When she got to the part about her mother being engaged to RGA, the table went silent.
     
    “How far are you in the diaries now?”  Piper spoke first.
     
    “February 1988.”
     
    “Is she writing a lot about her wedding plans?” Lexi asked in a sympathetic voice.
     
    “That is all she is writing about.” Aimee took a bite of her salad.
     
    Piper looked over at Lexi and then again at Aimee.  “I know that has to be hard to read.”
     
    “It was at first, but I came to understand that it was possible for mom to love both my dad and RGA.”
     
    Lexi looked at Aimee.  “How are things between you and your dad now?”
     
    Aimee stared at her cell at minute. “The same.  We talked a few times.  It is going to take us awhile before we restore our relationship. I love my dad, but Deandre has gotten so out of control.  I really feel sorry for him.”
     
    The rest of lunch, they discussed what Lexi and Piper did over summer vacation.  Lexi was no longer talking to Drew. He turned out to be a total looser.  He was not even going to church like he claimed.  Lexi found most of this out when she accidently ran into him at a summer party.
     
    She was upset at first.  But, she met a guy who has been coming to Wise chapel.  They have gone out a few times. Lexi was almost glowing as she began describing her guy.
     
    “He is so great, Aimee, he is a true Christian, he sings with the choir.  His name is Jaxson, he is twenty-four. He even has dark hair, Aimee.”
     
    Aimee laughed at Lexi.  “Doing away with the blonde hair as criteria helped you.”
     
    Lexi playful threw a piece of ice at Aimee.  “He just landed a job in Ancaster as an IT Tech for some company, Rose something Fruits.”
     
    “Roseednay Fruits?” Aimee was totally shocked.
     
    “Yeah, that is it, why?”
     
    “Ok, I didn’t tell you this at first because it is not public knowledge and I don’t know all the exact details, but I own Roseednay Fruits.”
     
    “No way!” Lexi and Piper chimed in unison.
     
    “Yeah, it is an international branch of Lilliend Rose. I found out because Mr. Myers showed up for my Vice President meeting.  He is the President of Roseednay Fruits.”
     
    “Wow.  You are so full of surprises.”  Lexi laughed.
     
    “Yeah, I know.  Don’t say anything to him yet though.  I have a meeting with the staff scheduled for Friday morning.”
     
    Piper laughed.  “Are you going to college or running a company?”
     
    “Going to college.  I am not taking over as CEO or owner of either corporation until I finish my business
