*Subtitles for the benefit of those would like to translate the dialogue.
It’s a typical day for Zola Welton, meeting after meeting at Welton Inc. Running a business from the ground up has been no easy feat for Zola. The business is mainly centered around designing fashions for the couture runways and the several opulent department stores worldwide. Other businesses incorporated under her roof are a modeling agency and a magazine. Let’s look in on the meeting currently in progress.

Zola:”On to the next action item. We have two weeks until Xita’s farewell party, so everything has to be finalized today.”
Xita is the present Miss City Circlez. Her reign is coming to an end and as she is a former W Model, Zola is planning a farewell party.

Zola:”Yes that can work. Just ensure Sasha has a training session or two with them before the evening.”
Watch out, Zola absolutely abhors disrespectful employees.

Victor:”My apologies Ms. Welton, this new game app is addicting and it got the better of me. It won’t happen again.”

Zola:”Ok then. I want updates by 3, and Serena I just remembered, please take care of the crown. Meeting adjourned.”
Victor shamefully puts away the cellphone and Zola eager for the meeting to finish stands to signal the end to a long morning.

Ashley:”Ms. Welton, the meeting with Sophie is next.” Zola:”OK that is the last meeting for the morning. After that it’s lunch.”
Everyone except Zola and Ashley leave the office.

Zola:”Emma is Sophie Fernando there?” Emma over intercom:”Yes Ms. Welton.” Zola:” Please let her in”
Zola presses the intercom to call Emma at the front desk.
Sophie Fernando, the W Modeling agency PRO, sashays in to the office with a firm agenda for this meeting.

Sophie:”On their way. They had an errand to run for me.” Zola:”When did they start?” Sophie:”Don’t worry about that. I need to raise their salary a tad.”

Zola:”Sophie what ever for? The amount of travelling you do, exceeds your stipulated budget twofold!”

Zola:”I can’t justify a raise, there is just too many things going on now.” Sophie:”Trust me this assistant deserves it.”

Sophie:”They were working on something for me. When they come, then we’ll know if they were successful.” Zola:”This something better be an income generating project. If not, then a raise is out of the question entirely.”

Zola:”Yes Emma what is it?” Emma over intercom:”Ms Fernando’s assistant is here, should I send them in?”
Slightly agitated by Sophie’s demands, Zola is a bit curt and ends the call before Emma finishes her sentence. What was she trying to say?
Then moments after Zola turns around, the answer steps through the door.
Welcome back! It’s so nice to see a new story in City Circlez. Everything and everyone looks fabulous.
Thanks Vanessa! As a veteran in this area of expertise I value your compliment and welcome ever so much! I am excited to return to City Circlez to stir up things both old and new.
Great story! Who is this assistant? He is very handsome. I was wondering why she get referring to the assistant as they when Zola kept saying “her”! Bet there will be some fireworks!
Of course some drama has to be stirred up in the first episode (evil laugh). Poor Zola is so accustomed to Sophie and her female assistants which she has as her little lap dogs, that a male asst, never really crossed her mind as a possibility. The assistant Kent Lowe is a Subject K Color Fusion doll from the 2012 IT doll convention. He was love at first sight! My ladies just had to have this Fabio look a like in their midst.
Yay! I am so happy to see City Circlez back!!! Everything looks fabulous as to be expected from you! I love love your stores! They are always so classy. 🙂
Thanks so much for the welcome back Vickey. This feedback is great to boost my determination to present stories to the best of my ability. I will try my very best to keep this standard and higher. 🙂
I have been looking forward to new episodes starting. YAY! I can hardly wait to see what the assistant had to do to justify a raise. He is good looking!
Thanks Jaye!! It’s my pleasure to bring you some entertainment. Be assured lots of drama is ahead. 🙂 And oh yes Kent is dreamy! Zola watch out!
