»Hello, Rosses!« was suddenly heard from a speaker in Ross' family penthouse.
»Hi, Tony!« the kids greeted him cheerfully.
Jessie stepped closer to the speaker. »You'll never stop eavesdropping, are you?«
»I wasn't eavesdropping.." the voice said again. "Okay, maybe I was, but that's not the point. Emma got a new package. I'm guessing it's shoe-..«
Tony couldn't even finish the sentence when Emma suddenly threw a magazine she was reading into the air, which was followed by a scream of excitement and ran towards the elevator.
Everyone was still stunned by Emma's scream that left everything silent for few moments before the voice from the speaker was heard again.
»Jessie?«
»Yes?« Jessie answered loudly.
»Can you come down too?" Tony paused before he said the next sentence. "There's something I need to tell you.«
»Sure, Tony. I'll be right there.« Jessie smiled and walked over to the elevator.
»There better be only talking going on down there, mister. I'm watching you!« Zuri yelled at the speaker.
While Emma was admiring her new shoes in the lobby and trying them all on, Jessie came out of the elevator and greeted Tony with a hug.
»What did you want to talk about?« Jessie asked him.
»Well, here's the thing..« Tony sighed and looked at her with a sad expression on his face.
»Oh no..« Jessie took a small step back when she read the look on his face. She was so afraid of this moment. She never wanted it to happen. She took a deep breath before she said the next words quietly.
»You're.. You're breaking up with me, aren't you? Is it because of what I said when I was in Miami? Look, I didn't mea-..«
»No, no,« Tony interrupted her and took her hands in his. »It's not because.. Wait," he looked at her confused, like he missed something important. "What did you say there?«
»Um..« Jessie laughed nervously, looked down at her shoes and thought of how to get herself out of this awkward situation. But at least he's not thinking of breaking up with her.
»That doesn't matter,« Tony finally spoke again. Jessie let out a sigh of relief and looked back at him. »What I wanted to say is that this is my last week as a doorman in this building.«
Jessie immidiatelly froze on the spot when she heard those words. She stared at the guy in front of her, refusing to believe the words that came out of his mouth. She thought she only imagined hearing that. That the moment did not just happen. That she will wake up and realize this all was just a silly dream. Tony can't leave the building.. He can't leave her.
»W-What?« is all she could let out after few minutes. She was still in shock. This was all too sudden.
