He had made sure to brush his hair extra neat that morning as he had tried his best to get in touch with his sisters but so far they had not returned his calls but it was okay. Today Carter was getting to go out and see actual work and yes it was true that being out in the day was still new to him but he had taken his medicine and he would be okay. He knew was some people looked like and a few names but he had yet to meet anyone that he would be working with though he had told that if he stayed around the tennis courts this might change as the day turned to evening and as a result he became more alert since he was prone to be more of a night creature. He busied himself with sweets some of the most decadent chocolates and chocolate covered fruits that the island had to offer since another small part of his job was tasting everything new that would eventually be on the menus. So far his favorite had been the new white chocolate raisins. The raisins themselves were organic so the health benefits were true and not just labeled onto the packages as he had sat down in the middle of the tennis court so that he could taste to his heart's content. It was good but a bit sour and still he knew he had a more sensitive palette when it came to these things. He would report back with a positive thought at least as he placed the lingering airpods into his ear. Apparently one of his sister was in a band so Carter had did his best to get updated and his other sister was pregnant and had a job with ose. That was a bit tricky but the Stratin family was at least starting to come together as he ate a little more of the sweets. They were also a good relaxing tool after a hard day of work, or in his case a long night of work. He took a second to make sure this his sleeves covered his arms since he was still being pumped with IV's, electronically. Soon, he would be done though and truly free. Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

This young teenage sisters seemed to do every thing together and that seemed to include tennis lessons. They even wore matching blue tennis dresses as their parents also clearly believed in getting value for money. It was the same price per lesson no matter how many students were involved but a pair of manageable. She spied a man bring a one person food court as these girls started their warm up on the top court. Madison was curious as she looked equally sporty in a halter neck pink tennis dress and walked over in a graceful manner with her tennis bag in hand. “Having fun?” she posed not just wondering who he was but they hadn’t met before this.

"My name is Carter," he said as he turned around and removed his music from his ear. "I'm the new, well I am not exactly sure what my title is but something with business. I was asked to meet someone out here who I may or may not be working with, Madison something or other I do believe." Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison glanced over to check the sisters who were so closely born together they might as well be twins were fine as they were. They looked really energetic and bouncy and it was just as well that she could keep up with them. She also remembered Avery talking about a Carter who would be running the beach volleyball. Perhaps this was him. “If you are the Carter who works for Avery you’ve found the right Madison. She mentioned you in the plans for the facilities expansion. She did say you would be running the beach volleyball. I am Madison Quinzell, still a sports coach as well as project lead for the planning for the facilities expansion. On the top court are this sessions students who I still have to teach. So I could suggest watching and seeing what happens here in the meantime until we can talk properly” she replied with a smile. There was still a duty to carry out before they could have a meeting. Dr. Carter Q. Stratin

"That would be me," he said. He still had a look of wonder since getting out more meant learning a lot more and having seen everything now first hand himself he was a little weary but his excitement took that over easily. "Yes I do believe eventually we will be working together though no rush on it." He liked his freedom, just being out and since it seemed if he did business he would get more of it then he needed to find both work and non work ways to get out. "I have heard about your program it is very exciting." Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

So now she knew the Carter she’d be working with more closely in the future it was time to get back to her students. “I started with these facilities and there will also be a swimming pool but I can show you the plans later on. Make yourself comfortable Carter” she cheerfully replied. She started by explaining that Carter was there to see how things worked and the two early teens girls gave him a big smile and a wave before their latest lesson started. They were close to the end of their lesson block and it showed as they had all the essentials nailed down already. This was lesson four and the next and last lesson would be to improve the skills they had. Then over time these would get better the more they played. Madison was also making it fun for them and the girls were at the stage of playing each other in full games now. Dr. Carter Q. Stratin

Unlike his sisters it was easier for Carter to blend into the crowd and he knew how to just listen and not talk too much or run. Running had always been Makayla's thing and talking to much had been Toni's but ever since they had came to the island he hoped that they had improved as he had yet to see them. "I will," he said. "At the moment I am just taking in how it all looks, seeing if anything needs any changes to make it easier to access but honestly this is the first time I can say I have seen it all look as if everything is in place as it should be." This was going to be easy which was good. "Yes I meant to thank you, your work has made the boss happy which does make all of our jobs easier in the long run. Will you still be joining Mrs. Ashford for dinner? Her and I have discussed having some of the newer food items on the menu for tastes." Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

When the sisters stopped for water break Madison did get to talk to Carter again. “Sometimes wheelchair users can feel left out so things will be fine if you can include chairlifts and ramps” she mused back initially. Then she heard Avery was happy because of her work. At least that made other people’s lives easier. “If I can make other people’s jobs easier that that is gratitude enough for me. I will be joining Mrs Ashford for dinner. That is the first time she’ll see the whole picture regarding these plans. I also have no food allergies so surprise me” she added with a smile.

"We do need an upgrade for the handicap bound," he said. "I hate using that word but making it more wheelchair friendly," he said. "You are making my job a lot easier," he said. He had not admitted to himself as much as he should but he had taken notice. "Good to hear," he said. "Madison," he said since he viewed himself as an honest person. "Has your brother spoken to you about me?" He did not, he was not going to go into too many details but he was curious as he turned back to his chocolates. "I suppose it might not be important as much as me just slightly wondering." Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Not all buildings even those back in her home city were set up for wheelchair users even when some thought had been given to that. If they were too old and listed you had to creative instead. She even knew of an old library where the wheelchair entrance was through the side door. “It’s essential Carter. I seen wheelchair bound players when I was those girls age and learning the game. I’m yet to see any tennis players who need mobility access but I do know there are some who go to the running track and the gym” she replied. She’d also made out with a girl in a tennis clubs equipment store once they realised they were into each other but that was another story involving her brother and priest thinking she was demon possessed. “He actually hasn’t but he has been rather busy recently. I’m taking him fishing soon so we can have us time for a change” she added. There was so many people Taylor knew and she didn’t given she hadn’t been home for nearly three years. She’d even stayed over the summers when she was doing her masters degree here. “I actually haven’t been back in New York since I came here to do my masters degeee. Are the oddity haters there still bring massive arseholes in my absence? I would like to bring my girlfriend to see my parents at some point” she posed. Dr. Carter Q. Stratin

As long as he was taking his medicine then he would be eating. He continued to eat as she went on. "I got you. I mean you got this at this point I am just the wing man. I don't mind being the wing man either I know a very little bit about business so I am hoping to be able to expand my own skills and I think that is where our team up, working together will work best." He nodded. "Getting busy does push everything else to the back burner," he said. "Maybe he will get around to mentioning me," he said though if he did not that was fine, he'd have a meeting with Taylor himself soon enough, and that was anything but business but for the moment back to business. "Much like here I think it would depend on where you are trying to go in New York, my method is to always be careful just so I can make it back home." Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison nodded as she listened to Carter. He didn’t mind being the wing man either in this project. Plus if all worked out smoothly they could do a whole lot more in the future. “I’ve found getting busy does have that problem” she mused. It cut down the time with her girlfriend for starters. Then New York was mentioned again. It usually did depend where you went and even normal humans had problems in those areas. So it seemed the situation had changed slightly back home. “The last I heard from home was the Friends of Humanity were operating. Perhaps they’ve splintered by now therefore less of a problem” she added. Or maybe not as wannabe strife fanboys could still be dangerous. Dr. Carter Q. Stratin

She seemed content perhaps even happy though he was not anyone who understood emotions at all she seemed easy to be around. It was easy to see why she had been given this chance. "Well the important thing is to," he said as he suddenly stopped. He knew he had not been imagining it. There were people following him which made all the sense of why Avery had told him only to go out at night but now that did not seem to matter. "We need to move," he said quickly and sharply. "We need to go now and I need you to be stealthy about it." Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Carter looked serious about this as he suggested they had to move now and quietly. The girls were back to playing their game and nearly finished the session anyway. “I need to know what is going on otherwise I will have to finish this slightly early for the girls. Explain quickly” she replied looking out but not knowing what to look for she wasn’t sensing danger. It wasn’t dark yet and the days were long this time of year. Dr. Carter Q. Stratin

He took a second to eat some of his candy. "Well, I think I am being followed." It did not even sound crazy because he said it very calmly because it was hard for him to freak out. "I need to be careful and make sure that I am not but no one is in danger, some things happened and I just, when people make wrong moves I have to be cautious. Do you understand now?" he asked as he ate some more of his candy. He took a second and moved the candy around and flipped one over and put the piece in his mouth. "Should be okay in about two minutes." Madison Nottingham-Quinzell
