Yes I knew him but how did you know him? I know Mrs Kate Winslow who helped him buy a motorcycle a few years back.

Yes I know Mrs Kate Winslow. What is this about Tristan?

As you know James did not have much in his estate. I knew that yes. I am Mrs Kate Winslow's lawyer. I still don't understand what is it got to do with me.

Kate ask me to thank you that you helped her get back the motorcycle as James has not paid it back. She already thanked me. It makes no sense. Please you are waiting my time with things I already know Tristan. What is this?

Kate is old and she wants to thank you properly. But a cheque of so much money. It uncalled for. I don't want it and I don't need this. Tonia please she will be offended if you don't except. Back when she collected the motorcycle she wanted to give the bike to me. I said to her she need to take at as James couldn't pay her back and he still owes her a lot of money. Now she wants me to take R100000. It's just to much.

Tonia she wanted me to give this to you she said you wouldn't take it. I want you to take it and please don't be so proud. You know that it's a sin to be proud.

Tristan please you don't know me and you have no right in telling me I am proud or to preach to me. You don't know me and please just leave me alone.

Tonia storms out the coffee shop and with huge steps she flees to her office.

Clearly very upset she sits at her desk and wonders what should she do. Should she phone Kate and say that she didn't want her money.

She really needed it but she said no back then and how can she now go back on her word?

Is God helping her this way by this money to buy a little place for her to stay? Is it a blessing in disguise? Is she suppose to take it?What must she do?

She knows there is just one person who will help her. She closes her office door, pick up her Bible and read. She doesn't find comfort. She prays Heavenly Father if this is from you give me a sign. I don't want to ignore a blessing that you want to give me. I asks this only in your name.

Her phone rings. Tonia halo.

Tonia it's Tristan please can we talk. I am sorry.

No and she puts the phone down. Again the phone rings. Tonia picks up and says Tristan I don't want to talk to you. Tonia it's me Kate. Oh so sorry Kate Tristan has been calling me too. Sorry how are you?

I am good how are you doing?

I am fine how can I help you Kate? Tonia I want you to have the money please. It will make me feel better. James made me promise that I will take care of you if something should ever happen to him. Kate what are you talking about?

How and why dis James talk to you about me?

It's a long story Tonia and the phone is not the place to talk please come to my house tonight for dinner and then we can talk. Please I beg you.

Kate All Right then I will see you at 7. You take care.

Thank you Tonia I am really glad that I will finally see you. OK Kate see you at 7 then.
