*******************************************************************

Ten years ago, Abbie ended her engagement with Riley after she found out he tried stealing from her Grandfather and tried to frame her. Abbie had enough and ensured Riley's family knew the truth of what happened, which caused Riley to lose access to the family money by his Grandparents. Riley always swore revenge. After Abbie's Grandfather passed away, she turned his Mansion and property into a hotel, event, and wedding center called The Venue. When Abbie's best friend Leia, Riley's baby sister, decides to get married at The Venue, Riley returns home to cause as much trouble as he can for both Abbie and Leia. Read along as the Venue's staff stops Riley and his entourage from the chaos they want to cause and what those staff workers think.

She turned around and walked out the door. I headed to the front desk and asked the team, "So, anything new?"

**************************************************************

Max chuckled and said, "Abbie that was an entertaining show. You really should provide us popcorn up here at the desk."

Acting shocked I said, "Max you want me to add to the mini buffet the kitchen bring you back there every day."

Putting his hand on his heart he joked, "You hurt me right here boss lady."

Laughing I added two cases of mini popcorns for the front desk staff to my Sam's Club order. Walking around I checked the upcoming check ins and events to make sure we will have enough staff. I smiled as I saw my best friends wedding coming up on the roster. 

I left the desk and walked through the venue rooms. The grand ball room was being set up for a wedding coming up this weekend. Watching my team set tables and making measurements for the dance floor. Everyone of my staff was friendly with each other and the team work they had made my heart soar. When you work at The Venue you are part of the family and we take care of each other. Walking through I heard Sally call me. I headed her way and she she took my arm and she pulled me away, "Hey sorry but can you check on Molly she has looked pale and she has mentioned she has felt ill all day. We had her rolling the silverware at the cart but I think she ran to the bathroom again."

Patting her hand I said, "Of course which way did she go?"

"She headed to the staff bathrooms," Sally said.

I walked to the staff area and knocked at the bathroom door and asked, "Molly are you alright. Sally is worried about you?"

The door unlocked and Molly came out. "Abbie I am so sorry. I feel so sick."

"Molly have you seen a doctor or the staff medic?" I asked.

"No not yet I didn't want to let my team down," She said.

"Sweetie you are pale," I said. "Lets go see Delores and have her check you out. You are not going to arguing with me on this."

We walked down the hallway and went into the medic office. Delores was cleaning when we walked in and said, "Oh Molly girl did you have an accident?"

"Delores," I said. "Molly is pale and has been sick all morning. Can you check her out please?"

"Of course," She said. "Molly sit on the chair. Now how long have you been feeling like this?"

"A few days," She said. "But I am not running a fever and normally water and sitting help."

"Okay," She said. "Let me ask you this could you be pregnant?"

She looked at her and said, "Oh my its a possibility I never thought of it."

Delores went to the cabinet and grabbed a test. Handing it to Molly she said, "Go ahead dear the bathroom is right there."

When Molly went to the bathroom I looked at Delores and asked, "We keep tests here?"

Laughing she said, "You would not believe how many guests come asking for them. I order twenty of them a month."

Shaking my head I said, "Good gravy."

We sat and waited for Molly to come out. When she did she was crying and said, "Its positive."

She sat next to me and I asked, "Are you alright?"

She started to laugh and said, "I think so. You have to understand my husband works out of town as a truck driver. We talked about having kids but I did not think it would be so soon."

Placing my hand on hers I said, "Well we have Delores making you a appointment to go see a Doctor. You will not lose your pay today and when you come in tomorrow come see me and tell me what your doctor said about any restrictions. We are covering the initial appointment so you can see what's going on."

Delores handed her a paper and said, "Give this to the office when you get there. The address is on the front of the envelope."

Molly took it and said, "Thank you."

She left and Delores said, "So I guess we will be looking into the employee daycare center attached to the clinic?"

Laughing I said, "Yes we are. I am glad I never did anything with the rooms past the clinic. They are spacious and I will have to get information on getting an employee daycare set up."
