Sadie had settled into the chaotic schedule of running the day to day business of the Deli. From organizing work schedules, to baking and preparing for each and every breakfast, lunch and dinner service. She had learned and done it all.
However, her devotion and dedication to the deli had caused her personal life to be put on hold. She hadn't been to see her parents in nearly a year and a half. So when the letter came that her father had passed away, it tore her heart to tiny pieces. Taking a few days of bereavement leave, the store was in the hands of Dirk while she was away.
She didn't know what made her more sick to her stomach. Going home to a funeral or leaving Dirk in charge. But she had to go comfort her mother. Being an only child, she and her mother were all each other had left in this world. It had been a long trip and by the time she got home, she was simply put, exhausted.
The days flew by in a blur and once the funeral was over, came the reading of the last will and testament. Her father had bequeathed to her half of his estate. She was shocked beyond belief to find out just how much her father had left to her. But she knew exactly what she wanted to do with that money.
She thought long and hard about it on the trip back to Rhydin. Once she returned, she penned a letter to Dean. He hoped she understood.
"Dear Dean,
Due to recent events, I have come up with enough money to buy the house and the Deli. I'd like to discuss this with you further. Please meet with me at the fountain in the market so we can talk.
Sadie"
She sent the letter with Dirk to the Pi house to be delivered to Dean. She hoped that he would be willing to sell the house and business.
