Stevie woke 2 hours early to prepare for her meeting with NetOp Services the next morning.  They were a very popular internet magazine and she didn’t want to leave anything up to chance.  After she showered and dressed she styled her newly cut hair as she stood in the mirror in her tailored suit.  She was glad Japan was a little more progressive when it came to personal expression at work.  Well in this field at least.  As she put the finishing touches on her quaff her phone rang in her hotel room.  She rushed over and answered it.

Stevie:  “Hello?”

Secretary:  “Good morning.  I am calling from NetOp.”

Stevie:  “Yes. Is there a problem?”

Secretary:  “No problem ma’am I do regret to inform you, however, that your meeting will have to be postponed until tomorrow morning.  Mr. Yakamora and Mr.  Kazumi had to fly to the states to handle a situation.  They have guaranteed their return by tomorrow morning.  I hope this is no problem.”

Stevie:  “No. No problem.”

Secretary:  “9 a.m. tomorrow morning.  Goodbye.”

Stevie:  “Bye”  Sure that’s fine.  I fly from the U.S. to Japan so they can go from Japan to the U.S.  Don’t they know I have a son to get home too?  Speaking of which.

Stevie grabbed her cell phone and dialed Shane’s number.  It took a few minutes for the phone to connect but it went through no problems.  She thanked Heaven for technology.

Shane:  “Yo!  You’re done already?!”

Stevie:  “Not quite.  My meeting has been pushed back until tomorrow so I may have to fly back a day later.”

Shane:  “Oh ok that’s no problem.  Me and X are having a great time.  Right X?  Come talk to mommy.”

Stevie could hear him screaming mommy in the background.  She was thankful that this time apart hadn’t jaded him towards her.

X:  “Hi mommy!”

Stevie:  “How’s my big boy?”

X:  “Fine.”

Stevie:  “You being a good boy for Auntie Shane?”

X:  “Yeah and…”

Xavier began to ramble on in three year old fashion about the activities the girls had don’t with him.  He had a tendency to mix fantasy with reality however because she was confident Helena hadn’t taken him in a space ship.  Must have been that BMW, Stevie felt like she could blast off in that thing too sometimes.  After 10 minutes on an international call Stevie realized that though she could listen to her son talk forever, t-mobile didn’t have a plan that covers that, so she had to hang up.
