It is about 9:30 a.m.
Gwen has just gotten off the phone talking to someone from Furniture Palace. She was told that the delivery would be made to the apartment around noon.
Meanwhile Theresa is out for a walk when her cell phone rings. She decides to answer it on the second ring.
Theresa: Hello!
Gwen: Hey Theresa!
Theresa: Hey Gwen! What's up?
Gwen: I just found out that my furniture is going to be delivered to the apartment around noon.
Theresa: Okay! We'll bring lunch! Is sandwiches okay?
Gwen: That is fine.
Theresa: Okay! Bye!
Gwen: Bye!
Seconds later the call has ended
Around 10 a.m.
Antonio is on the phone with Gino.
Gino: So, are you and Theresa still players?
Antonio: Yes!
Gino: So, what's name of the girl you're going after?
Antonio: Her name is Gwen Hotchkiss.
Gino: Impressive!
Antonio: She works with me and Theresa!
Gino: I can't believe it.
Antonio: It was her idea.
Gino: So, you're going to have to work harder to get her?
Antonio: I guess so!
Gino: So, when are you planning to ask Gwen out?
Antonio: Actually she will be the one asking me out?
Gino: How can you be so sure of that?
Antonio: Gwen decided to throw a party last night and Theresa and I came up with a new plan.
Gino: What was the plan?
Antonio: I would persuade Fox to ask my sister out and Theresa would persuade Gwen to ask me out.
Gino: That is a great idea.
Antonio: Now, all I have to do is wait for Gwen to ask me out.
Gino: How long do you think you'll be able to do that for?
Antonio: I don't know!
Gino: Maybe you should wait a couple of days before you ask Gwen out yourself.
Antonio: No! I think I can wait a week!
Gino: How about we put a bet on that?
Antonio: You're on?
Gino: If I win you will attend one of my client's party in my place.
Antonio: Okay! If I win you will dress up in a funny outfit of my choosing.
Gino: You got yourself a deal!
Antonio: Cool! Bye!
Gino: Bye!
Seconds later the call has ended.
Antonio: Theresa!
A couple of seconds later Theresa comes into the living room
Theresa: Yeah!
Antonio: I just got off the phone with Gino!
Theresa: How is he?
Antonio: He's good!
Theresa: That's great!
Antonio: I told him about our plan!
Theresa: What did he think?
Antonio: Gino thinks it's a great idea! We have a bet!
Theresa: Antonio, what does he get if you lose?
Antonio: I have to attend a party for a client of his.
Theresa: That sounds reasonable. If Gino loses what does he have to do for you?
Antonio: He will have to wear a funny outfit!
Theresa: That is awesome. What kind of outfit do you want it to be?
Antonio: I don't know but maybe you can help me figure that out!
Theresa: Maybe or you can ask Gwen to help you pick out a funny outfit for Gino to wear.
Antonio: I could tell her that Gino is having a funny themed party.
Theresa: I think that is a brilliant idea. You can mention it to her today.
Antonio: I think I will! How about you come to Gwen's apartment about 12:30 p.m.?
Theresa: What are you planning to do?
Antonio: I'll come up with something!
Theresa: I want the details of what you came up with later.
Antonio: Okay! So, what are we eating for lunch today?
Theresa: How does sandwiches sound?
Antonio: That sounds great!
Theresa: Do you want the unusual?
Antonio: Yes!
Theresa: Maybe I should get a salad.
Antonio: No! Get cheese French fries.
Theresa: That is even better.
Antonio: I'll take care of the dessert!
Theresa: You should make your special chocolate cake!
Antonio: Maybe I will! I'll have to make a quick run to the store.
Theresa: Grab your keys! I'm leaving in five minutes!
Antonio: Okay!
It doesn't take long for him to grab his jacket, wallet, and keys before he heads out.
Around 10:30 a.m.
Antonio is in the kitchen making his cake when the phone rings. He decides to let the answering machine get it. On the third ring the machine picks up and then after the beep this is what is heard.
Betty: Antonio and Theresa I know this is something I wouldn't ask of you both, but would you two mind helping me with the benefit party? I'm going to fax something over tomorrow, and just let me know if the both of you want to help me out.
Seconds later the message beeps and then Antonio thinks to himself what if I call Ms. King right now, and tell her that she contact Gwen.
Seconds later Antonio stops what he is doing to contact Ms. King.
On the second ring the phone is answered.
Betty: Hello!
Antonio: Hi Ms. King!
Betty: Antonio! (She says in a surprised tone) What can I do for you?
Antonio: It is about the message you left on the machine.
Betty: Oh, does that you mean you and Theresa will do it?
Antonio: Actually I was thinking of giving the job to Gwen.
Betty: Is Gwen a friend of yours?
Antonio: Yes! She works with me and Theresa now!
Betty: So, does Gwen have experience with handling party benefits?
Antonio: Yes! She has experience handling weddings mostly!
Betty: Well, then she can handle the job!
Antonio: Thank you Ms. King!
Betty: It will just be a couple of things for Gwen to do.
Antonio: That will be fine.
Betty: Tell Gwen to contact me tomorrow!
Antonio: I will! Bye Ms. King!
Betty: Bye Antonio!
Sometime later
It is about 11:45 a.m.
Gwen is in the apartment when her cell phone rings. She decides to answer it on the second ring.
Gwen: Hello!
Cindy: Hi Gwen!
Gwen: Hi! How are you?
Cindy: I'm good! There's going to be a party I'm throwing and I was hoping you could come!
Gwen: When is it?
Cindy: On New Year's!
Gwen: I can't! I have a charity benefit to go on that day!
Cindy: Who's throwing it?
Gwen: Ms. Betty King!
Cindy: I can't believe it. (She says in a surprised tone) How did you meet her?
Gwen: I haven't meet her yet. All I know is that is a client of Antonio and Theresa's.
Cindy: Wow! So, when can I come to visit?
Gwen: When my apartment is ready.
Cindy: Okay! I'll talk to you soon! Bye!
Gwen: Bye!
Around 12:05 p.m.
Gwen: Antonio, what do you think of the apartment?
Antonio: I like it.
Gwen: I do. I just have to figure out where to put the furniture.
Antonio: I'm going to go down to help the delivery guys!
Gwen: Okay!
Then he goes downstairs to help the delivery guys bring up the furniture.
Around 12:20 p.m.
All of Gwen's furniture is her apartment.
Antonio: Are you going to get more furniture later on?
Gwen: I might!
Antonio: Okay! Gwen, there's something important that I need to talk to you about.
Gwen: What is it?
Antonio: Ms. King wanted me and Theresa to do some things for the charity ball, but I thought maybe it was something you might want to handle, so I suggested you for the job.
Gwen was really surprised by what Antonio did and for a moment had nothing to say about it.
Antonio: You don't have to do it if you…
Gwen: I think I can handle it.
Antonio: Good! I'm going to give you Ms. King's number. She wants you to contact her tomorrow.
Gwen: Okay!
Antonio: Theresa should be here soon!
Gwen: Okay!
Around 12:30 p.m.
Theresa has arrived with lunch.
Antonio: Gwen decided to the job for Ms. King.
Theresa: That is wonderful. So, I like this apartment.
Antonio: I like it too.
Theresa: Does Gwen have any paper plates?
Antonio: I don't know!
A few minutes later
Gwen: I can't believe I forgot to get stuff I need for the kitchen.
Antonio: That happens.
Gwen: I'll make sure I go to the store later!
Antonio: I could do that for you!
Gwen: No! I can't have you that! Now, let's eat!
Antonio: Okay!
Sometime later
It is about 2:30 p.m.
Gwen Bye!
Then Antonio and Theresa head out of the apartment and seconds later Gwen closes the door.
Theresa: I was amazed by you today Antonio.
Antonio: I'm a nice guy!
Theresa: Yes, but I think it's more than that now!
Antonio: I don't know what exactly I feel for Gwen but maybe it could be something more.
Theresa: You deserve to be happy again!
Antonio: Yes, I do!
Then they continue back to their apartment
