Her alarm clock went off around five. She reluctantly pulled herself out of the bed, and hopped down the stairs to the dinning room. Today was going to be another long day for her. She had budget cuts to go over, and a charity ball to go to later in the even. She was running late for an important meeting at her new fashion store. She paged the housekeeper to get Ethan up and made her way out the door.
The freeway was already crowded and she still had an hour drive to her fashion store. As she was driving her cell phone immediately went off. She debated on whether to pick it up or not. By the fourth ring she began to realize that whoever it was, they were not going to leave her alone.
"Governor Lopez-Fitzgerald." Theresa said with annoyance in her voice.
"Hey there's no reason to get annoyed." The man said over the phone.
"Fox, are you in NY yet?" Theresa asked.
"Yeah, I'm on my way to your house." Fox pronounced.
"Well, change of plans. Meet me at Theresa's." Theresa said.
"Oh so you're going to make me travel out of my way to Theresa's." Fox said sarcastically.
"Just get over there as soon as you can." Theresa demanded.
"Yes Governor; whatever you say." Fox said.
Theresa got off of the freeway and headed into her fashion store. Theresa decided to get a head start on being reelected. She was going to hold a major charity event.
"Miss. Watson, is everyone here now for the meeting?" Theresa asked.
"Yes, except for Mr. Crane." Miss. Watson pronounced.
Theresa went into the meeting room where there were about 20 people sitting around the meeting table waiting for her. Theresa had learned speak in front of large room in college. She knew that this group of people wasn't close to the amount of people she had had to speak to in the past. She took her seat at the front of the table and pulled out her briefcase.
"Theresa's is going to hold its annually Fall charity." Theresa stated.
"Um, Ms. Lopez-Fitzgerald we haven't had a Fall charity yet. We've only opened up this year." Felix Johnson told Theresa.
"I know that Felix. I mean we are going to start our own Fall charity." Theresa restated annoyingly.
"For our charity, we are going to find a family who is in need of clothing. Over the next two weeks we are going to hunt the streets of Manhattan for the perfect family. Every single one of you are going to find me my family for the charity event. On top of that, I will be giving that family $20,000. Any questions? Theresa asked.
"Yes, Ms. Lopez -Fitzgerald, How will we know who is the perfect family?" Felix asked.
"Felix, you'll know." Theresa said irritably.
"Yes, but how will we know?" Felix asked again.
"Felix you'll know or you'll loose your job." Theresa shot back angrily.
"Theresa, you got to learn to be a little nicer, or they'll never learn to love you." Fox said as he entered through the door.
"I don't want them to love me, I want them to get up from this table and find me my family."
After these last words from Theresa, the employees got up and headed for the door as quickly as possible.
"Man Theresa, you sure know how to clear the room." Fox said.
"Well, Fox you don't get to be governor by just sitting around." Theresa said.
"Well, then how do you become governor Ms. Lopez-Fitzgerald?" Fox asked.
"By negotiating and if need be force." Theresa answered him.
"Well, I can't argue with that." Fox said.
"So, wants some breakfast?" Theresa asked.
"Why not." Fox answered.
"Miss. Watson, have our breakfast brought up to us please." Theresa said.
"Yes Ms. Lopez- Fitzgerald. What kind of juice would you like with that?" Miss. Watson asked.
"Two Raspberry- Lemonades please." Theresa answered.
"Yes ma'am." Miss. Watson said.
"So where were we?" Theresa asked.
"I think you were going to tell me about this new charity event that Theresa's was holding. Fox said.
Theresa was about to tell Fox about her new charity idea when the phone rang.
"Governor Lopez-Fitzgerald." Theresa said.
"Theresa it's me Luis." Luis said.
"Luis what can I do for you." Theresa said.
"Theresa you need to come out to Nevada." Luis said.
"What? Why?" Theresa asked in a confused manner.
"Mama has married Jamal." Luis said in an angry tone.
"Damn it!" Theresa said out loud.
"What's wrong?" Fox asked.
"It's my mother; she's going to cost me the election." Theresa shouted out
