Nathalie took a deep breath and made several clicks on her computer. She typed several columns and arranged the rows perfectly. There. That’s fine.

"Oh, but Dad…" Jace complained. Henry just looked at him.
"Now, who should we bring?"

Nathalie hit submit and emailed the spreadsheet to Mr. Manchester quickly. "Now he has that…" she murmured to herself.

Jace racked his brain, as did Henry.

The email popped up on Henry’s screen while Nathalie was already busy with something else.

"Better check that," Henry said, taking his laptop from Jace.

Nathalie sighed, tapping her pen on the tabletop.

Henry looked over what Nathalie had sent him. "I think I know who to invite."

Nathalie checked the time. She should be giving Mr. Manchester his report! She scrambled around to grab papers that were scattered across her desk and hurried up to her boss's room. She knocked on the door.

Jace and Henry both looked up. "Come in."

Nathalie entered. "I'm sorry, sir, I forgot to deliver your daily report," she said, hastily approaching his desk to give him the papers.

"Perfectly all right, Nathalie. We're all stressed." He paused. "Say, Nathalie. Are you wanting a holiday?"

"Perfectly all right, Nathalie. We're all stressed." He paused. "Say, Nathalie. Are you wanting a holiday?"

Nathalie blinked, almost like she didn't know what a holiday was. "Uh… Sure, sir?"

(sorry, I'm busy. I can't always reply straight away)

"Would you like to join Jace and myself on our vacation?"

(Okay, that's fine! ;D You just disappeared. (Btw, if I ever just disappear off the sight around this time, I probably fell asleep.)

Nathalie looked from Henry to Jace and back. "Uh, that would be nice, sir…"

"Good. Because an extra ticket was accidentally ordered."

Nathalie blushed and tried to think back if she ordered the tickets or not.

"So, would you like to join us?"

"If it's not a problem, sir…" she trailed off, not wanting to be a burden, but secretly hoping to go.

"No, don't be ridiculous. Jace doesn't mind." Jace opened his mouth to say something something, but stopped when Henry shot him a look.

"Oh. Um… thank you, sir. I'm sorry about the tickets," she said.
