Mahi: so how were the interviews?

Neta: they were good. How's college?

Mahi: It's going well

Neta: are you making friends mahi hmmmm? Making computer friends?

Mahi: shut up. When are we going to meet the new recruits

Neta: next week they're coming in for training and you are going to train them.

Mahi: ok.... Like what day next week?

Neta: Tuesday. The training starts Tuesday I will start scheduling them for individual shifts so they will be working here for a while.... it'll be great I think you'll like them.

Mahi: okay great. I don't have class then. where are you going to be Tuesday? I assume you're not going to be here

Neta: yep I have wedding planning I have to do. You think you can handle it by yourself

Mahi: yeah of course I can neta I'm a store manager remember. You don't have faith in your management. The longest person who's been here.... I can handle it.

Neta: I trust you. You're going to be with Candi and Warabie they're going to help you. If some things people's wrong please call me

Mahi: alright

Neta: ok this is something I need to tell you and it's really really important.

Mahi:.............

Neta: I have this friend, his name is Stefan. He's a betta. You probably know who he is, he's on the cover of 'kriller coffee'

Mahi: is he the guy that had his coffee shop closed down because he was accused of money laundering?

Neta: yeah him. If he comes into the store, send Vinny to the back.

Mahi: who's Vinny?

Neta: you'll know him when you see him all right. If Stefan comes to the store, send Vinny to the back. They cannot make eye contact. They cannot look at each other. They cannot feel each other's presence look at me. Look at me right now...........they are not allowed to interact.....at all. Okay, simple request.

Mahi: All right, I'll try..... See I hate it when you do that now I'm less confident in my abilities

Neta: you got this champ. I believe in you

Service worker: so The wedding will be set in the center, chairs will be set here. For the reception, I guess we can get rid of all the chairs. You have a small stage for entertainment and-

Koi-koi: sorry I'm late traffic and everything.

Neta: koi

Ikkan: hey mom.

Koi-koi: Hi guppy! [kiss]......................cover your neck I can see your hicky!

Ikkan: mom stop!

Koi-koi: cover. it!!.......

Ikkan: I'm going to the bathroom........ You're the only one who noticed.

Koi-koi...hmm.. awwww Neta! it's good to see you honey [peck]

Neta: Mrs. Admiral

Koi-koi: oh please just call me koi we're not in a work setting......... So this is the place? It's very nice. Natural light, very spacious, beautiful greenery. You choose a very nice location.

Neta: yeah.... We wanted something close to nature but...heh.... without bugs or .....birds..ikkan doesn't like birds hehehehe

Koi-koi: He's always been scared of birds. I have no idea where that stems from.

Service worker: well, the only bugs that we do have is in our butterfly garden. That's another option that most people go to for weddings...hehehe hhhhh

Koi-koi: uh huh.....how much is this going to be?

Service: well he picked A package which only provides the venue which is just the greenhouse. No other added things like music or flowers or food that equals out to be around 7.000

Neta: I have about 20.000 in my savings I was just getting-

Koi-koi: what are the other packages?

Service: well we have a total of four packages. A package is just the greenhouse. The B package provides music and flowers C package provides flowers and-

Koi-koi: which one is just food and flowers?.... I'm assuming you kids have your own music artist friends you'll invite to the venue so the music is not needed.

Service worker: so that is the C package....ummm...... That will cost 10.000

Neta: that's... that's like half of my-

Koi-koi: who's the caterer that will provide the food and what food will they be providing?

Service worker: well we usually outsource our foods from various restaurants. La homard and The Oceanside Cafe. they have a lovely selection of macarons that people just ad-

Koi-koi : do we get to choose from the menu? Or do they have their own pre-selected menu?

Service worker:........ they do provide a pre-selected menu but you are able to pick and choose what you want from any restaurant but there is a fee

Koi-koi: how much?

Service worker: uhhhh 800

Neta: That's... A little bit over my budget

Koi-koi: perfect. May we have the menus please......thank you. Here you go neta

Neta:.koi.....this is a little too much for me

Koi-koi: what flowers do you provide? The color is going to be green and purple. I was thinking of something like Purple stock and Dark purple carnations moonvista maybe some sages decoration. How much would that be

Service workers: that would be 900 those flowers are not provided in the C package so it would be a little bit extra.

Koi-koi: so how much should that be?

Service worker: 11.700

Neta: ehhhh thats-

Koi-koi: Great! Am I able to pay it monthly or all at once?

Neta: koi

Koi-koi: shh I'm doing business... Is there an interest fee?

Service worker: no we don't have an interest fee and you can pay for it every 2 months

Koi-koi: Great!.... Let me just get my card out.....ehhhh....I'll put it on my black cyan card.

Service worker: oh Black cyan!.... Right away.

Neta: koi I really appreciate you doing this but It's okay really I don't want you to spend this much money on-

Koi-koi: I have been saving for this for a long time... You really make ikkan happy..... The happiest he's been in years..... I really don't mind paying for it. You can use the money you saved for your suit or shoes maybe something for your groomsmen......

Neta:.............thanks koi

Ikkan: All right, I'm back. Here's your makeup..... Is this good enough for you?

Koi-koi: watch the attitude.... Well we have everything sorted out....

Service worker: here's your card back ma'am. You're receipt for your first month's payment

Koi-koi: thank you dear you've been a real help.

Ikkan: mom we talked about this neta and I have no problem paying for the expenses. If neta doesn't have enough I can pay

Koi koi- sweetie I insist. I've been dreaming about your special day for years. Since you were born. [Kiss]

Ikkan:...... Is this how you pictured it......

Koi-koi: ............. well...no. I pictured you in a wedding dress with your tentacles up in a tight bun..... but I do look forward to seeing my guppie in a nice tailored suit.

Ikkan: mmmmmmm I can still wear a dress.

Koi-koi:* heh* stop being silly

Ikkan: hehehehe I can wear your dress

Koi-koi: hahaha .... no. you'd stretch it.

Ikkan: I can fit in it you just need to cut the sleeves off.......... and dye it black

Koi-koi: *gasp* never!........ maybe you can wear your father's suit.

Ikkan: no I already have a suite in mind

Koi-koi: speaking of your father where is he?? He wandered off an hour ago.

Ikkan: I saw him near the fruit and vegetables when I came out of the bathroom

Koi-koi: oh ugh.... He's probably lecturing one of the gardeners. Probably something about mulch. You know how he is....hmmm.

Service worker: I almost forgot. We also need to know how many chairs we'll need to provide for guests.

Koi-koi: how many guests are you inviting

Ikkan: we actually haven't talked that much about that yet and haven't put on any invitations either. You haven't even made them yet.

Koi-koi:................................................................... Is it okay if we get back to you honey?

Service worker: Yes of course, but we do need to know how many guests a month in advance.

Koi-koi: of course we'll call you when we figure it out......... ....*sigh* you need to Make a list and figure out who is coming. I know you probably have a lot of friends who you want to go. You can maybe choose a couple family members and the same goes with Neta. You need to get on that. The weddings in a couple months........ Practically a year actually. You have plenty of time.

Koi-koi: All right, let's go home ..... Maybe dinner...... Boys do you want something to eat

Neta: yeah I could take something home

Ikkan: sure

Koi-koi: Merv we're going.... I'm going to try to find someplace to eat

Merv: so what kind of fertilizer do you use?

Gardener: Salmonoid excrement

Merv: oh really

Gardener: oh yeah It's very rich and nutrients we usually use it for produce. We have a partnership with grizzco we put advertisements around some of the green rooms and they give us salmon poop. Pretty solid deal

Merv: I used to own a farm

Gardener: ohh

Merv: and we raised manatees so every other month when we need to clean up their stalls and we used their-

Koi-koi: dear we're leaving......stop harassing the gardeners

Merv: All right .... Is there a way I can buy some of that salmon fertilizer?

Gardener: we sell small bags of it in the gift shop.. It's on the left

Merv: huh well I'll go over there

Koi-koi: Merv!!

Merv: okay!....... You said on the left right? Okay, thank you
