Anneliese's POV
"Sorry we had to change the venue for our meeting" I tell the building designer. "Just there have been so many orders lately" I state.
"That's fine Mame" he assures me. "So what changes do you wish to make?" he asks puling up the design on his laptop.
"I want a fence around to pool and spa" I tell him. "Also I don't want the door from the master bedroom to the back yard" I state.
"Would a window be ok?" he asks.
"Yes, but I want shutters on all the windows" I tell him.
"Anything else?" he asks.
"I just want grass in the backyard and front with empty garden beds. My mother loves gardening and wants to pick the plants personal. And plant them" I tell him smiling.
"Real or artificial grass?" he asks.
"Real diffidently" I say nodding my head. "Also can we lose the door connecting the pool bathroom and fourth bedroom?" I ask.
"Of course" he states.
"So will there be a built in air-con/heater system?" I ask.
"We can do it, but it would cost more" he tells me.
"I don't care about the price, I've been saving up along time for my dream house" I tell him.
"The stove, fridge, dish washer, washing machine and oven are all included. You just have to choose which ones you want" he tells me. I pick them out and then look at the pool & spa again.
"Can we do anything about that?" I ask him pointing to how the spa was on the stairs leading into the pool.
"We could move it to the corner, but again it'll cost more. Are you sure?" he asks me.
"I'm sure" I say nodding my head. He finishing writing the contract and prints it all out.
"The design plans and contract" he states. "Just sign the contract to approve all the changes" he explains.
"I don't sign things without reading them" I tell him and read the contract. Including the small print before signing it. He hands me a copy and we shake hands before he leaves. Just then I heard the front door open and call "we're closed". Just then Coco runs into my studio and greets Serafina purring. "What are you doing here boy?" I ask patting him.
"I wanted to check out you boutique and he missed Serafina" Julian says frown behind me. Making me jump placing a hand on my heart.
"Don't sneak up on me like that" I scold him calming my racing heart.
"Sorry, so who was that that left?" he asks pointing to the door.
"My building contractor/designer" I state.
"You won't kidding about having a plan to building a house" he says shocked.
"Nope, this is my copy of the plans and contract" I tell him holding up a folder.
"May I look?" he asks and I nod my head handing it to him. "This will be perfect for raising children" he states.
"That's the idea" I tell him smiling.
"Why does the master suite have two walk in robes?" he asks.
"One is meant for the man and the other for the girl" I explain.
"But you're single" he states.
"It's just the way it's designed, I may use the smaller closet for my unwearable clothes" I tell him.
"Unwearable?" he asks confused.
"My friends like to buy me clothes I'd never buy for myself, but I don't get rid of them. So I'll just put them in the smaller wardrobe" I state shrugging.
"Have you seen the price?" he asks bug eyed.
"Yes I have, with all the money I've saved and the money my grandparents left me. I have more then enough for the house and will still have money left over for a vacation. Which I've been dying to go on for years" I tell him.
"Where would you go?" he asks.
"I was going to tour all around Italy, but now I'm thinking somewhere closing to home with babies on the way" I tell him.
"You were going to go to Italy?" he asks.
"That was before I meet you and became pregnant with twins" I state. "Besides that trip is still two years away at least" I tell him. "So was there a reason for your visit?" I ask.
"I wanted to take you out to lunch" he tells me smiling. "I know you have a lot of work at the moment. But you need to eat" he states.
"Don't you sound like my mother" I mumble and he chuckles making me smile. "There's a Subway down the road" I tell him grabbing my handbag.
"Why would we need to go on a train?" he asks confused and I laugh.
"I'll show you" I tell him and lead the way after locking the store.
"Oh it's a sandwich place" he says as we enter the restaurant. I order my food first and he orders the same. Except I get an ice coffee and chocolate chip cookie. While he got an iced tea and raspberry cheesecake cookie. We sit at a booth and eat our food, before returning to my store. "So what are you doing if the store is closed?" he asks.
"Crocheting and mending dresses while thinking of designs for new dresses" I tell him.
"Could you use some company?" he asks. So he spends the afternoon with me while I worked. Making sure I rested, had water and my vitamins. Before we went our separate ways.
