ANA AND MARIA

Ana had been working at the Living Animals Aquarium for three years she has attractions for the Jellyfish.

Ana caters to the to the Jellyfish's and the sea animals and dolphins and seahorses.

Ana is what the world calls a workaholic but she is single and the aquarium is her life she treats the sea animals as babies.

Wednesday April 3rd 2002 her boss called her in Miss Ana Casterian please report to Mrs.Pandain office.

When Ana arrived she knocked on the door and Mrs.Pandain opened the door and said come in Miss Casterian.

Mrs.Pandain had dressed up in old clothes from 1920s she had a red wig on her hair is naturally brown which goes with her brown eyes.

Clara responded you look confused your not in trouble but you will be going my other Aquarium its called World of Sirens and Exotic Sea Animals.

I'm going to a costume party tonight just trying one everything before I actually wear it so you fix your face.

After you get that business running you will be the owner of that Aquarium meaning you can change the name and venue of What Sea Animals you have.

So eager Ana answered "Yes" but whereabouts exactly?

Mrs.Pandain answered just outside Toronto also you will be working with Ms.Knight.

Ms. Knight is an employee who you should watch out for she likes women so just watch yourself Don't get caught in her web.

Ana packed her things she said Goodbye to a few friends and her Grandmother Nikoletta.

Ana jumped in the R V and she was off to the new Aquarium,the Gas station was her next stop old Qinn wasn't full as yet.

When Ana was younger her Grandfather Alek took her driving his brand new Quinn he called it but she was young couldn't say Quinn so Qinn came out.

The first gas station of the day and she filled it up and gave the station hand a tip of 10dollars and she was off the ride to the new Aquarium.

The long drive wasn't really boring she had music playing and she talking to her older brother Anthony who was on speaker phone she said What again?

Ana answered she said Watch out for Ms.Knight she likes women!!!

I wanted shout so do I but I haven't come out as yet well I am here I call you back when get a hotel to park Qinn.

Anthony said Okay Ana Don't forget to Pray and Go..click of phone she had hung up on him.

Anthony thought to himself always at the best part she always hangs up and he giggled to himself.

Ana arrived it was the night she parked the RV in a parking lot not far the Aquarium she made something to eat and then she locked up for bed.

Ana awoke from a sudden bang on the rear of the R.V she jumped up and opened the door standing outside was a woman she was mumbling to herself and to Ana.

The woman spoke loud and the quite Do you know what time it is ?

Why are you parked in my spot?

Do we have a problem?

Ana said sorry but I'm Ana Casterian am her to help with the Aquarium also I parked her at night.

Not knowing that it was an actually or even your parking spot.

If you don't mind I am going to get dressed and stuff and the move the R.V out of your spot she said sarcastically and closed the R.V door.

A few mintues went by and Ana emerged and parked the R.V on the road instead of the parking lot she walked out with a clipboard and a brown briefcase.

Her hair dreadlocks in a half bun and glasses which kinda hid her different color eyes blue and brown.

While in tanks and water she wore louse clothing inspecting the inside walls and the Sea Animals in the tanks.

Ana spoke of change about real changes in Aquarium renovations and staff upgrade and new uniforms and new break room.

Ana stood with confidence when she spoke to the other employees she was the boss.

On her breaks Ana would visit the animals having lunch by speaking to the them.

Damon Blue mention to a few employees that Ms.Casterian is little odd not socially with them.

Always with the animals of the sea her nickname became Mermaid.

Ms.Knight walked in the room as they we're all joking about Ms. Ana (Mermaid) at first she listened to What they we're talking about and then she intervened.

Ms.Knight said she has done great things for the Aquarium have any of you actually tried to talk her instead of making fun of her.

Ana had walked in the break room after getting a personal phone call when Ms.Knight was speaking she gotten her lunch and walked out to the R.V.

They had heard the engine start some employees looked outside but Ana had left.

Maria walked out of the break room on the floor was the paychecks with a cake that was now all over the floor outside the door.

Ana hadn't been seen in the office and Aquarium for a week she would call in and check on inventory for the Aquarium was getting a face lift in many ways even down to the staff.

While away from work news had came that her brother Anthony was in a coma he had been in hiking accident that happen with his youth group.

The only staff that was informed of what was going on was Ms.Knight for she was second in command when the boss was away her position was Assistant Manager.

Maria title would soon change to Manager of World of Sirens and Exotic Sea Animals.

Jokes still went on about Ms.Casterian when she was away, but a letter came in everyone mail box in the break room.

The letter stated that an Emergency Board meeting would take place to Review employees.

Ms.Casterian and Mrs.Panadian will be present with other board members.

Damon said its a joke its not hard to find her she lives in a R.V and maybe it has a Sea in there.

As Damon was saying that as Board Member entered.

He introduced himself I'm Douglass Hester I will be doing interviews of all the staff starting with Mr. Blue.

Everyone please take your leave right now I will be calling each one of you in for several days.

Outside the door chairs with last names on them another employer started saying actually she has a house not far from here my wife helped her get it.

The door opened and two other names were called in Mr.Boone and Mr.Dhanel Please come in and Mr.Blue please sit back down we are not finished.

They we're called to office one by one until three employee's was fired not as example but for he was stealing from the Aquarium accounts.

Damon Blue was arrested for embezzlement the Board Member Hestor had a video of Boone and Dhanel helping Mr. Blue they we're also arrested.

A few employers could be heard what was that?

And well he is the part time accounting and others said that Ana set him up.

Rumors soon left after the re-opening of the new improved the World Sirens and Exotic Sea Animals.

Two months went by Maria was seen walking with a woman holding hands in public Ana had been shopping and saw them laughing not paying attention.

Ana almost walked in traffic someone had grabbed her in time she said thank you and walked away.

In the morning Ana went for a jog and Maria spotted her she ran up to her Ana

Hey you jog?

Ana slowed down and said Yes that's how I clear my mind and soul.

What's up?

Maria said How about some lunch?

Ana said What about your girlfriend?

Ana ran ahead of Maria when she caught up with Ana she was talking to a woman with aurburn hair who was trying to hold her close to her body.

Maria said I guess she's yours to the woman?

The woman answered No but she's cute right !!

Ana answered honey I won the race so you owe me lunch Maria grabbed Ana hand and said if you beat my to flower shop I will cook it instead.

Ana ran towards the flower shop Maria said if you touch my girlfriend again I will ruin your smile and ran after Ana.
