Evelyn sat at her desk, engrossed in her work, her fingers tapping lightly on her keyboard as she worked on the questions she was compiling for her interview with Derek. The phone on her desk buzzed softly, and she glanced down at the screen. A smile spread across her face when she saw Derek's name flashing.
Without hesitation, she picked up the phone. "Hey, D!" she greeted warmly, leaning back in her chair, her eyes twinkling with excitement.

Derek chuckled softly. "Busy, as usual, but everything's on track. I wanted to check in and see if the movers have arrived at your place yet. Have you heard from Maya?" Evelyn's eyes brightened at the mention of the movers. "Not yet."

"Wednesday would be good. What do you think? Or should we make it Friday?" Evelyn asked, thinking about how much time it would take to unpack.
"It depends on you. But don't forget that your parents will want to come over by the weekend, and my Dad will too," he said, and she smiled.
"Let's have them over by Wednesday then," Evelyn said, and before Derek could respond, his office door opened and his mother walked in.
