Kendall was sitting at her desk going over some figures when she heard Dani and Simone giggling.

"What's so funny ?" Kendall asked "The two of you have been acting strange all morning, what gives ?"

"We were about to ask you the same question " Dani piped up

"Yeah Kendall, what's going on? Ever since you got here this morning you have been acting weird" Simone added

"What are you two talking about. I am not acting any different then I normally do" Kendall answered

"Oh come on Kendall. You seem happier for some reason and just now you were humming" Simone pointed out

"I was not" Kendall protested "Besides, what if I was , is there some law against humming that I don't know about ?"

"No " Simone answered "Its just that as long as I have known you, I don't think I have ever heard you hum. So come on don't leave us in the dark. What's going on ?"

"Nothings going on, I am just in a good mood today. Is there a problem with that ?" Kendall said

"No, no problem at all " Dani said

"Well good, because we have a lot of work to do today and I have to leave early so we need to get busy" Kendall announced

"What do you mean you are leaving early today " Simone protested "What on earth for ?"

"Well, " Kendall began " I need to get out of here by 4:00. I have some shopping I need to do before I go home"

"WHAT " Simone exclaimed "You have to be kidding me. We are days away from launching a new product line and you need to leave early to go shopping ? Is there a sale going on that I don't know about ? Because if you are holding out on me Kendall ….. "

"No Simone," Kendall laughed " there is no sale."

"Are you sure ?" Simone asked "Because I can really use some new shoes and I saw the cutest pair …"

"Simone, will you shut up for a minute " Kendall laughed " I swear on my life there is no sale. I am making dinner tonight and I need to figure out what I am making then go to the store to get what I need. Then I need to go home and get a shower and get ready. That's all, I swear"

"But Kendall" Simone started "You don't cook. Your idea of cooking is take out . Oh my God, you have a date. So who is it ? It can't be JR, not that he isn't hot or anything, but last I heard you weren't seeing him anymore. Del ? Is it Del, Greenlee mentioned that he was in town and you ran into him the other night. Oh I know who it is ! It's Josh Madden isn't it. Ya know he is HOT. If I wasn't seeing Ethan I would go after him myself."

"Simone" Kendall yelled "Enough already. No I am not having dinner with JR, Del or Josh. If you must know I am having dinner with Zach"

"What on earth for ?" Simone said in shock

"Well in case you missed the memo ," Kendall said "he is my husband. And it isn't unheard of for a wife to have dinner with her husband."

"Well with any luck" Simone began " maybe your cooking will kill him and then we can be rid of him for once and for all"

"SIMONE" Kendall exclaimed in horror " Zach isn't as bad as everyone thinks he is. Cut the guy some slack will ya. Besides this isn't a date or anything. There is some stuff we need to discus, and we both need to eat, so why not do them together. Now if you don't mind can we get back to work please "

Kendall went back to the papers she was working on while Simone and Dani went back to making arrangements for the launch party .
