By few minutes after seven, I was still waiting for her. I stood up to greet her as soon as she stepped inside the room.

'Good morning, madam,' I greeted.

'Good morning, Queen. You are looking good. I like your outfit. That's the spirit.'

I grinned coyly. 'Thank you, ma. Your dressing is super, too.'

She seemed gladdened. Indeed, her dressing, though 'iro' and 'buba', looked good on her.

'Lara!' she called out. Lara instantly answered from her room and soon came up.

Madam Rose handed her bag to her and turned to face me. 'Alright, let's go.'

I keenly followed them downstairs and outside to the waiting car. Mr. Kasali had washed the jeep and it looked sparkling. Once again, I sat
beside madam in the jeep. In less than fifteen seconds we got to the front of the hotel. In the absence of Lara, I assisted madam with her bag. I
could see the hotel edifice clearly now. In its nice-looking and fine view, it looked attractive from the outside.

We got inside it and went to the lobby. I could also see the members of staff enthusiastically greeting Madam Rose.

The interior was very attractive. Madam Rose must have spent quite a lot to put that building in place. By the lobby was a corridor to the right.
We followed it to the last door by the right. Madam took her bag from me, gently opened it and brought a bunch of keys out. She went through
the keys and finally decided on the one to open the door. She stepped inside the cool room. Her portrait was on the wall and a small Nigerian
flag was on her desk. This was Madam Rose's office.

She motioned me to a seat while she went to sit behind the desk.

She gingerly opened her handbag again and brought out her cell phone. Then, she put her eye glasses on, scrolled through the saved numbers
on the phone and called a number.

'Hello,' she said into the mouth piece and paused briefly. 'Yeah, good morning. Are you in the office? Come over to my office.'

She cut the call connection and put the phone on her big desk.

'I've just called the Customer Relation Manager that you will be working directly with. Don't forget: you are my eyes and ears in this place. You
must always brief me about things that are going on.'

'Yes, ma,' I answered.

The door gently opened and a lady stepped in.

'Good morning, madam,' she greeted.

'Good morning, Barbara. Sit down.'

'Thank you, ma'am.'

Barbara sat down and regarded me briefly.

'Yes, Barbara,' madam said. 'This is Miss Queen Alade, the lady I told you will be your assistant as Deputy Customer Relation Manager. Queen,
meet Barbara Ogbeha, the Customer Relation Manager. The two of you will be working together. I want maximum cooperation and high productivity.'
