"Swimming isn't really a sport. At least I've never do it as a sport. It's just a way to let out some frustrations." Roxy explained. She didn't see swimming as a sport even though she knew it could be. She didn't think of the martial arts she did as a sport even though many people competed. She simple saw it as a way to protect herself and release her anger in a way that wouldn't hurt others. She knew she had a temper and tried to focus it.

"Well I suppose we better head to the office. My father will want to question you before dinner." Roxy warned Jess. Her father had big plans for the empath. She had no idea if they were all possible but she did know he would push Jess as far as he could. She briefly considered using Jess to take down her father but that would make her no better than him.

Roxy knew she had nothing to offer Jess in exchange. As it was failing at her job as an anchor. Not that doing it better would have changed things much but at least if the shield was up Jess would still be stuck in her world. Unfortunately there was nothing either of them could do about that.

Roxy shrugged. She couldn't deny that. Romance wasn't a thing that existed in her world. She had no experience with it. The door to the store opened and an older man stepped into the shop. His emotions were mostly calm. He was a little worried. He smiled when he saw Roxy. It was cleared that respected her. "Do you have a moment Ms. Roxy?"

"Of course Paul. What can I help you with?" Roxy asked

"It's Tilly's chair." The older man said.

"Do you need help bringing her in?" Roxy asked.

"No. No. I got it." The older man assured her. He stepped outside. It was only a couple of minutes before he pushed a electric wheelchair into the shop. In the chair was on old lady. She lookedattheman with love in her eyes. "It's acting up again."

Roxy walked over to the wheelchair. She checked a couple of things. "Devika can you climb the later up to the top shelf?" She pointed to a shelf that held several small plastic containers.

"I wouldn't call it love." Roxy argued. She didn't think of the art she did as love. It was the way she relaxed and unwind. The fact that she could sell her creations was beneficial. She didn't really need the money but it was nice to know the work wasn't going to waste. "The truck should be here in about an hour. I'm going to flip the sign but I'm not opening the bay doors yet." She figured that would keep the traffic down and give Devika a chance to adjust.

She made her way to the door and turned the sign and unlocked the door. She didn't expect much traffic today but that was fine. She wanted to start slow. Overwhelming Devika would only drag out the adjustment time. Which would only make things worse. She polished the horse so it would be ready to ship when the truck got there.

Roxy didn't mind the few days that she didn't open shop. She finished the horse whe was working on. When Devika indicated that she was ready for the shop to be open. She simply raised an eyebrow. "I'll arrange for the sculpture picked up and we'll see how that goes." She didn't want to overwhelm the empath. Still it would be good to get back to work. She was starting to get restless.

She took out her phone and schedule the pickup. Then she headed down. She saw no need to advertise that the shop was open. Not until she knew that Devika could handle the emotions. If they were lucky Stewart wouldn't show up but she wouldn't put money on it. He had been quiet the last few days and he wouldn't stay away long.

I appreciate it. A few days shouldn't be a problem.
