Publisher's Synopsis
The walls were also adorned with beautiful African paintings and murals as well as Adinkra symbols. When I got to the three beautiful ladies at the reception, I said: 'Good afternoon lady receptionists, please I am here to see my Natural Wonder. Eiiiii sorry, Araba...errrh Arabella, please'. They just looked at me with surprised demeanours, and their faces looking askance. One of them calmed my nerves down, helping me out of my confusion of thought by saying: 'please come again'. I arranged my thoughts and this time around, said: 'please I am here to see the CEO of this company'. All three of them said in refrain: 'Oh, Madam Arabella'. One of them continued: 'that beautiful and caring Auntie'. They usually gave out such names like Auntie as a mark of respect and reverence. They asked me of my purpose and I gave them a code she had earlier given me. This made them know I was a very important personality. As they expressed facial signs of reverence, one of them led me to a very special seat in a room which was reserved for very important personalities. As I sat there I could see them making several phone calls and nodding to the directives the one they called might be giving them. For barely five minutes' time, I saw the lift at the basement open, and a white lady walking on pencil-heeled, pair of stilettos in graceful and majestic gait towards the receptionists. They brought her to me as I sat alone in that air-conditioned, bulletproof, glass room. She struck a warm, business-friendly conversation with me after telling me her name and her position - she was Stephanie, my Natural Wonder's personal secretary. As I talked back to her, she led me to the lift as her pair of high-heeled shoes knocked the polished stone marble on the floor in a 'kro-kyia', 'kro-kyia', 'kro-kyia' sounds. Almost all the ladies in that edifice of a wonderful working environment that was frozen with snowy breeze from air- conditioners all over knocked the polished floor with their pair of high-heels in that manner of a sound. As I followed on, Stephanie led me to the lift.
