Sipping her strawberry frappuccino while browsing her laptop at the local coffee shop looking for a job. She would have never thought that she, the former Queen of Heaven would be look for mortal work. Scrolling down the job options, she heavily sighed there were not any jobs she was familiar with except for wedding planning. It was her passion, before she got married and had children. An idea occurred to her she thought deeply about it. Starting her own business was her dream along time ago, but now she had a chance to. Possibly, work with new people after all if she wants to survive in the mortal world she needs to work like all the other mortals.

Gathering her thoughts on how much money she would need to start her business, she reminisced her days as an apprentice wedding planner. Oh yes, seeing brides walking down the aisle arm and arm with their fathers giving them away their little girls to their future husbands who awaited their brides at the altar. She had a feeling most of those girls got cold feet before getting married. She remembered when her grandmother Gaia was worried about her getting married to Zeus. Rhea mother pressured her to marriage to Zeus.

~Memory begins~

"Dear, are you sure you want to do this?" Gaia asked her granddaughter. "Grandmother, what am I suppose to do? Stand back and let him brag to everyone what he did to me? So yes, I'm sure." the young Hera replied as Gaia put her granddaughter's pearl necklace around her neck. "You look beautiful as always, sweetie. I just don't want what happened to Metis to happen to you, and not to mention he impregnated Demeter."

The old woman couldn't help but stare at how beautiful her granddaughter looked in a wedding dress. Its embroidery and center around her slim curvy waist light blue while rest of the dress was white. Looking away she frowned closing her eyes trying to block out the revolting things Zeus done to Hera against her will. If it wasn't for Zeus' title he would put his title he would have put shame on his family.

Her arm around Gaia trying to reassure her, "Grandmother, I'll be alright trust me." She said giving her grandmother a sweet reassuring smile. It calmed Gaia down a bit, but it did not help her fears that will happen to Hera if she married that man. Their moment was interrupted by Hera's mother, Rhea. "Come on Hera stop lollygagging in there," Gaia shook her head. When Hera came out her mother whispered in her ear "When they ask 'Do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?' Say I do it doesn't matter if you love him or not. You are going to be Queen of the gods."

Hera looked at her mother choking back a tear how insensitive her mother was. She told her about the rape and how Zeus told her she had to marry him or he would shame her in front of all the gods, mortals, and creatures. The first thing Rhea told her daughter was "Honey, it doesn't matter what he did to you all that matters is you will be his wife whether you like it or not."

Sighing, Hera looked at her mother asking herself how she came from this awful woman who only cares about her social status. As the music began her mother walked to her seat. Sigh here goes nothing, Hera thought as she began to walk down the aisle.

~Memory Ends~

Hera shook out of her memory when she spotted a man in a navy blue suit walk into the café his milk chocolate eyes framed by his long eyes caught her attention, His walk asserted dominance with a hint of arrogance. Scolding herself from staring silently the man caught her stare and smiled at her. Ordering his coffee he walked to her table standing above her.

Broad shoulders helped outlined his chiseled muscular body, she muttered out a stuttering hello. A smile spreading across his lips he asked politely, "Hello, may I sit here with you miss?" "Sure," she replied. "I couldn't help but notice a beautiful woman like you sitting all alone here I thought you might want some company." He said. Hera raised her eyebrow at this. Who was this man and why did he choose to sit next to her?

"Allow me to introduce myself my name is Rodger Waters. And you are?" "Well its nice to meet you Rodger my name is Hera, yes yes the Hera who divorced the great Zeus" rolling her eyes she said mockingly. She would have expected him to get up and leave in an instant but all he did was hold back his head slightly and let out a laugh.

"What's so funny?" she asked a serious look on her face. "It's funny that say it like I am going to run out of here just because you're an ex-wife of a god. All mortals are not as timid as we seem." He said boastfully. "Well, I did not say you were timid did I?" raising her face slightly back to her queenly voice. "No, but I knew you were thinking it." Responding satisfied at the look of surprise on her face.

She looked at him up and down taking in his appearance. His dark brown hair matched his eyes along with his tan olive skin. She could tell he was either a lawyer or businessman judging from his suit. One thing she grew to despise after her marriage was men with power. Stopping herself from completely freaking out on the guy she closed down her laptop. "Well, it's nice meeting you Mr. Waters, but I have to go I have some errands to take care of." "It's nice to meet you too Ms. Hera." Smiling back she took her coffee to dispose of it.

On his phone he sent a text to someone saying, "I'll call you later…"

Taking her belongings she exited the café not looking back. Who was this handsome stranger? Why did he want to sit with her? And why did he happen to know about my divorce is it possibly that news reached the mortal world? All her thoughts were coming down like rain.

Alone at the table his phone ringed, "Hey, yeah I met her. Wow she's a beauty." "Hey! No looking at her don't forget our deal Rodger." The deep male voice said slightly irritated on the other line. "I know our deal how could I possibly forget…" rolling his eyes replying with a bit of sarcasm. "Just do your job and after you complete it you'll be set for life. And I mean for life." "Not so fast I want something else along with that too." Rodger said. "Fine we'll discuss it tomorrow." Rodger ended the phone call. As he walked out the café he thought about what he was getting himself into, but shrugged it off.
