Roseline:I don't understand; was I not  supposed  to follow him as well.

Miss Benson: not to worry; he will let you know  when  needed. give up, go have lunch. Take it easy on yourself.

at the xxx hotel ...

Melody: Helo, cousin. I assumed you wouldn't appear.

Maxwell: I'll go back now.

(She clutched his hand as he stood up and prepared to walk away) .

Melody: You can't handle a joke.

Maxwell: That doesn't seem like a joke.

(He took a seat ) .

melody:  how have  you been doing now that you are the CEO

Maxwell: It's stressful, but I'm coping.

Melody: Cousin, I need some financial  assistance because my birthday is  this coming weekend.

Maxwell: My intuition told me so. You only search for me when there's  money at stake. Is it your opinion that I am a  money making machine?

Melody: I'm your favorite cousin. Just lend a hand. 
(Caller rings phone).

Rosy, I had intended to  phone you but you did so before me.

Roseline: And hello to you. I was hoping you would call. Do we still have a birthday shopping  list?

Melody: Sure. Currently, I am with my cousin. Are you still on the job?

Roseline: yes, but right now I'm having  lunch. My irritating boss left.

Melody: I asked you to stop, but you refused. By the way, you still haven't given me  the company name. Hey bestie, are you there? (The call is cut off) helo.

Hope you're coming to my party  cousin?

Maxwell: Yes, but I won't stay long. I just sent money to your account. use it wisely. 
Melody: Thanks. (After speaking for sometime, they  left).
