Rita's Unseen Destiny.

 Rita passed through the front door, exhausted. She had spent the entire day at Sha industries, learning the ropes and trying to keep up with Karen's whirlwind training. Her mind was reeling from the huge amount of information she had absorbed, and her body ached from the constant running around.

 Hey, honey! Welcome home!" Carlson called out and Rita smiled, collapsing onto a chair. " Hey, sweetheart. I am tired," she said, rubbing her eyes.

 Carlson chuckled and handed her a glass of water. " Well, you deserve it after your first day. How was it?

 Rita took a sip of the water and let out a sigh. It was overwhelming, but good. I think I am going to like it. "

 Carlson smiled and began serving up dinner. " I am proud of you, Rita. You are going to do great things. "

 After dinner, Rita yawned and stretched, her eyes dropping. " I think I am going to head to bed, sweetheart. I am exhausted."

 Carlson nodded understanding and helped her clear the table. "Get some rest honey. I will finish up some work in my study room."

 Rita nodded and headed to the bedroom, collapsing onto the bed with a grateful sigh. She was asleep in minutes.

 Meanwhile, Carlson headed to his study, settling in behind his desk with a sigh. He had a few reports to finish up some emails to answer, but he was looking forward to a quiet evening himself. 

 As he worked, he couldn't help but feel grateful for Rita and their life together, she was doing so well at sha industries, and he was proud of her taking the step. He knew she would excel in her new role, and he was happy to support her every step of the way.

 With a content sigh, Carlson went back into his work, the soft hum of his computer and the quiet of the evening his only companion.

 When morning came, Rita woke up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. She stretched her body and yawned, feeling the softness of the bed beneath her. She looked around the room, taking in the familiar sights and sounds of their cozy home. Carlson was already up and about, she noticed, and she could hear the sound of sizzling bacon coming from the kitchen.

 She got out of bed and began her morning routine, feeling a sense of excitement and anticipation for the day a head. She was looking forward to her second day at Sha Industries and was eager to learn more about her new role.

 As she dressed up and made her way to the kitchen, she couldn't help but feel grateful for Carlson's support and encouragement.

 "Good morning, beautiful, "Carlson said, greeting her with a warm smile and a kiss on the check. "How are you feeling today?" 

 "I am feeling great, thanks! Rita replied, taking in the delicious aromas of breakfast." What's on the menu today?"

 "Just some scrambled eggs and bacon, "Carlson said, expertly flipping the eggs in the pan. "And, of course, some freshly brewed coffee." 

 Rita's eyes widened as she took in the spread. " You are spoiling me Carlson!" " That's what husbands are for,"he said, winking at her.

 They sat down to eat together, enjoying a leisurely breakfast and discussing their plans for the day. Rita felt a sense of contentment was over her, knowing that she had found her perfect match Carlson.

 As they finished up and began to clear the table, Rita turned to Carlson with a mischievous grin. "You know, I was thinking maybe we could celebrate my new job with a nice dinner out tonight?" 

 Carlson raised his eyebrows, intrigued." That sounds like a great idea, my love, where did you have in mind?"

 Rita's eyes sparkled with excitement. " How about that new Italian place downtown? I have been dying to try it out."

 Carlson nodded enthusiastically." Sounds perfect to me. I will make the reservation. "Great Choi! Carlson said, pulling out his phone to make the reservation. I will book us a table for seven P.M. And how about we make it extra special?" 

 Rita's eyes lit up." What did you have in mind?" Well," Carlson said, asly again spreading across his face.

"I was thinking we could start with some champagne and appetizers at the new rooftop bar that just opened up. Then, we can head to dinner and cap off the night with some live music.

 Rita squealed with delight. "That sounds amazing! You are the best, Carlson! " Carlson chuckled and pulled her into a hug. I am just glad to see you so happy, my love. You deserve it after all your hard work."

 The rest of the day flew by in a blur as Rita and Carlson made preparations for their night out. They both got ready, dressed up in their finest attire, and headed out to the rooftop bar to kick off their celebration.

 As Carlson sipped Champaign, Rita sipped pineapple juice and took in the stunning views of the city. Rita couldn't help but feel an amazing new chapter in her life. She had an amazing husband, a fulfilling job and a bright future a head of her.

 " Cheers to new beginnings! Carlson toasted, clinking his glass against hers. " Cheers to us!" Rita replied, smiling up at him. The night only got better from there, with a delicious dinner, great music, and dancing under the stars. Rita and Carlson laughed, loved, and celebrated into the night, basking in the joy of their special evening together.

 After finishing their dessert, Carlson and Rita decided to call it a night and headed home, enjoying the quiet ride and each other's company.

 As they approached home, Rita leaned her head on Carlson's shoulder, feeling grateful for the wonderful evening they had shared.

 "Thank you for tonight, Carlson," she said, her voice full with sincerity. It was perfect."

 Carlson smiled and put his arm around her. " Any time, my love. I am just happy to see you so happy."

 They got out of the car and walked hand in hand to their house door. Inside, they found their cozy living room just as they had left it, and the comforting silence of the air conditioner.

 Rita kicked off her shoes and flopped onto the couch, letting out a contented sigh. I am so full and happy," she said, smiling up at Carlson.
