Lady Grace
Pardon the interruption, Nora, Celeste.

Lady Grace
Celeste, could I ask you for a small favor this afternoon?
Celeste
Oh? Umm can I know what is the favor that you are asking for?
Lady Grace
Careful as always I see.
The lab needed a few extra hand on the current project that we are working on. And I trust only you to handle the task.
Celeste
You want me to work overtime?
Lady Grace

Nora
Wait, you want her to work late?
Celeste
I'm sorry, mam'.
but I already made plan for the afternoon. I don't think I can.
Lady Grace
You know how important it is for the project to go smoothly. And it does add to your resume for the work you did for this particular research.
Celeste
if you don't mind, I could stay late tomorrow or even the day after. But as I said, I already made plan today.
Lady Grace
You're a stern girl, Celeste.
I guess this is really last minute.
Lady Grace
I'll see you tomorrow then.
Lady Grace
Nora, you got yourself quite a tough gal.
Nora
Sweetheart, are you sure it's ok to reject her like that?
Celeste
Yes, I'm sure. She knows how I work.
Celeste
I'll be okay baby. Wanna get ice cream?
After they left, behind the corner.
Lady Grace
*pick up a call*
Lady Grace
She's still around, no need to be alarmed. She's fine.
I understand.
I'll manage, trust me.
