the plate. “Where’s Nana?” I asked.

“Outside” Quil said pointing to the window; I could see Nana hanging up washing. I got up and went outside to help her, “morning Nana, let me do this” I offered. “Morning baby, you sleep well?” she asked passing me washing to hang up for her. “Yes thanks, so Nana, when did you get started on your building plans?” I asked. “Oh about a week or so before you and Jake left for your trip” she answered. “So…when are you going to show me where your new house is being built?” I asked. “Well I must go there later today and hand them a cheque, so you are more than welcome to come along” she said.

“Fantastic, oh shoot, I had better phone that guy for the mechanical shop so Jake can go and have a look at it” I remembered. We finished hanging up the washing and I went to make the call.


Chapter 44

“Morning Mr Simmons, its Miss Hawkes, is there a possibility that my fiancé can come and have a look at the premises today?” I asked. “Hold on one sec” he responded. He came back onto the line and advised that he is showing the premises to a potential buyer, so I asked him to hold a moment. “Jake he’s showing a potential buyer at twelve, he asked if we would like to meet him there in an hour.” I asked. “Sure” replied Jake. “We can be there in an hour Mr Simmons, thank you” I said ending the call.

A short while later both Jake and I were on our way into town, I showed Jake where it was and he was already impressed with its location and it would make him the only mechanical shop in town, people wouldn’t have to travel so far out to Mason’s with his exuberant fees he charges. “Nice spot and its on the main road, no one can miss it” said Jake. We saw a gentleman waiting in the parking area of the property, so we pulled up along side him. Mr Simmons was an average size who immediately looked intimidated by Jake’s size being over six foot and buff as he climbed out of the car.

I introduced them to each other and Mr Simmons quickly ushered us over to the front entrance. “So Miss Hawkes, how are you doing today?” he asked sizing Jake up and down. “ I'm fine thank you Mr Simmons, and thank you for allowing us to see the property on such short notice” I thanked him. “Not a problem at all my dear” he replied as he unlocked the door, once inside you could clearly get a picture of this being the reception area. We then followed him through to the warehouse part of the building, which would be transformed into the work shop area and there were stairs leading up to two offices. After the tour, Jake had a huge smile on his face as he could see the potential of this place as I could.

“So do you think you could be interested in this property Mr Black?” he asked. “What’s your price?” asked Jacob. He handed Jake a document and Jakes eyes nearly popped out of his head. “Mr Simmons, can you just give us a moment?” I asked moving Jake with me. “We are not paying that price” Jake whispered. “Jake, trust me, he wanted much more for this place, I have already negotiated the price and he has already dropped it considerably. And think about it, this place is in tip top shape, very little needs to be done and all you would have to do is buy your tools and equipment and have them put in.

If we don’t take it now, we might regret it” I replied. “You can make that kind of money back in maybe two years, come on Jake, it’s not like we are using our life savings, its money that could be put to good use, like this” I insisted. “On condition, our compromise?” he stated. “Deal” I answered.
“We’ll take it Mr Simmons” Jake announced shaking his hand. “Fantastic, I will just go and get the transfer paperwork for you to sign” he said. “Can we please take a read through the paperwork, I would like my attorney to take a look at it before we sign it Mr Simmons” I requested. “And if we are satisfied with the paperwork, the funds will be transferred into your account by end of business day tomorrow” I added.

“Very well Miss Hawkes” he said leaving us there to go get the paperwork in his car. Jake took another look around and picked me up and kissing me. “Thank you” he whispered. Mr Simmons re-entered the building with his paperwork and handing it to Jake. “The keys will be at my attorneys, here is their details, you can collect them once the funds have been transferred” he said passing us the envelope and a business card with his attorney’s details on them. We all the exited the property. “Thank you very much Mr Simmons, nice doing business with you” Jake said shaking his hand once again and then shaking my hand, we watched as Mr Simmons got into his car and drove away.


Chapter 45

Jake turned to me, “you have an attorney?” Jake asked. “Well, yeah since Nana put her house into my name and since they were Nana’s attorney’s as well, so for any legal needs I go to them now” I replied. “Come they are around the corner” I said taking his hand and leading him to the attorney’s office. “Hi Michele, is Mr Jones in?” I asked. “Yes, just a second Miss Hawkes” she said and left her desk. “How is it that she knows you so well?” asked Jake. “As I said, they handle all my legal things, like the inheritance, investments etc and Mr Jones knew my dad” I replied as Michele came back in. “Mr Jones will see you now Miss Hawkes” Michele said appearing back at her desk. “Thank you” I responded and took Jacob’s hand and lead him into Gerald’s office.

“Hello Kayla, what can I do for you today my dear?” he asked kissing me on the cheek. “Hi Gerald, this is my fiancé Jacob, Jake this is our attorney Gerald Jones” I said introducing them. “Pleased to meet you Jacob” he said shaking Jakes hand. “Like wise Mr Jones” replied Jake. “Gerald, please” Gerald responded. “I wanted you to take a look at a purchase we have just put in an offer for and see that the contract is all in order before I transfer the funds over?” I asked. “Okay let’s have a look at the paperwork then?” he asked, I passed him the paper work, he glanced over the paper work briefly. “Okay, why don’t you two go for some lunch while I go over this properly, see you back in just over and hour then?” he suggested.

“Thank you very much for this, also if you can have the other documents ready for me to sign when we get back” I said getting up, Jake and I left Gerald’s office.

We took a walk along the main road to go to the mall and have lunch; we ended up at this burger place Jacob’s absolutely loved. While there for a short while when Jake came up with an idea. “Nana’s moving out right?” he said, I nodded in agreement. “She would more than likely take her furniture with right?” he asked. “Not sure, nothing’s been mentioned about it yet, I could always ask, why?” I asked. “Well I thought that if she does, we can decorate the house the way we want, so maybe we should go and have a look at furniture?” he suggested sounding excited.

“Well she is going to the property a little later today, I could ask her” I said. “Cool” Jake responded as my phone rang, it was Gerald’s office. “Hello” I answered. “Sure, thank you, see you shortly” I ended the call. “Gerald’s done we can go see him” I told Jake, Jake slurped his last bit of drink, paid for our lunch and we headed off.
When arriving at Gerald’s office, Michele advised us to go straight through.

“Thank you very much for this Gerald” I said as I sat down. “The contract is all in order, you have scored yourself a nice bargain with that size property” he chuckled. “So Jacob, you can sign here, here and here, that’s great. I will sign as your witness and your attorney” he stated. “Michele” he called on his phone, Michele entered a few seconds later.

“Michele, can you please make three copies of this contract and stamp them all” he asked passing her the contract Jacob and he had just signed. “Next is the Power of Attorney forms you asked for Kayla, here they are if you want to have a read through them” said Gerald passing me some forms. I read through it quickly, “perfect” I responded passing them back to him. “Great, now Kayla if you can sign here, giving Jacob authority, Jacob, you sign here please” he said as I signed and then passing the letter to Jacob to sign. “Hold on, what is this for?” asked Jake. “Jacob this document you are signing gives you Power of Attorney over all of Kayla’s legal things, bank, investments, insurances etc, etc” he said.

“But why would I need or want that?” asked Jacob. “Jake, this is for if I am unable to get bank, if you are in need of funds for the business, or can’t get into the office here to sign paper work for you, or if I pass away, you have control of signing rights to everything that is mine” I said. “I will give you two a minute” offered Gerald as he left his office.
I explained to Jake why exactly I was doing it and that it was for the benefit of us both, eventually he accepted and Gerald returned to his desk. Jake signed where he had to sign and Michele re-entered and took the new contract and made copies of them as well.

We were handed two contracts, one copy being of the business we had just purchase and the other being the Power of Attorney, which was for our own filing purposes. Now we were on our way to the bank to make the transfer and received the paper work to register Jake’s company and to open up a business account.


Chapter 46

On our way back home, Jake was coming up with ideas on what he wanted to do with the building. “Oh, by the way I am taking Nana to her property, you want to come with?” I asked. “It’s cool, you spend time with Nana, I need to go and speak to Sam, so I will meet you back at home later” he said pulling up outside of Nana’s place, he kissed me goodbye and drove off. I was no sooner on the porch when Nana came out with my car keys and we were off. She showed me where to go and it was merely a ten minute drive from our house.

“Here it is” pointed Nana, I was impressed with how far it was already. “Nana, do you need any help paying for this, I mean you don’t have to move if you have to put yourself in debt for this” I offered. “No my baby, that money you put into an account for has paid for all of this, so I am good thank you for your offer, but that house was getting
