       Allison sat in her office, typing away at her laptop. Her phone
       vibrated and she smiled as she looked at the clock, answering
       it.
       Allison. Well, hello, handsome.
       Her son, 5-year-old Tyson, giggled into the phone.
       Tyson. Mommyyyy.
       Allison. Is everything okay?
       Tyson. Yes, ma'am. I miss you.
       Allison. I miss you back. Are you being good for Mama Rose?
       Tyson. She let me help her make cookies!
       Allison. I hope you plan on bringing some home!
       Tyson. I packed 'em already! Chocolate chip!
       Allison. Ugh, they sound so good.
       Allison looked up at the sound of commotion in the bullpen.
       Allison. I'll be there to get you at 5, okay? Please have your
       shoes on when I pull up.
       Tyson. Okay. I love you.
       Allison. I love you, too, Tyson.
       Allison hung up just as there was a knock at her door. She stood
       up when her boss, Charlotte, walked in.
       Allison. What's going on out there?
       Charlotte. A huge story. We need you downstairs in the studio.
       Allison. Me? Why?
       Charlotte. They're going live with breaking news.
       Allison grabbed her jacket and rushed toward the elevator...
       ...Downstairs in the news studio, the leading producer, Mike,
       met Allison at the elevator as they walked in double time.
       Allison. Mike, what's going on?
       Mike. These two old church ladies just came in with something
       mind blowing.
       Allison got escorted into an office where two old women rose to
       their feet.
       Mike. Ladies, Allison Chambers. Allison, this is Elizabeth and
       Hattie.
       Hattie. Lord, Allison Chambers!
       Elizabeth. We watch you every day at five, 6, and 10!
       Allison. Thank you. Mike tells me you have news?
       Hattie opened her phone and handed it to her after hitting play.
       Allison watched the video for a moment and looked closer.
       Allison. Is this Governor Winston's daughter?!
       Mike. Getting slapped in the park. You recognize the guy?
       Allison. Jasen DuPont, her fiancee.
       Elizabeth. Ex-fiance.
       Allison looked at Elizabeth and Hattie.
       Hattie. That cute little fruit boy who does the gossip on the
       radio...
       Elizabeth. Dorian Hawthorne...
       Hattie. Said that they broke up weeks ago, and she's with some
       new man now.
       Allison looked at Mike.
       Mike. You're on in 5.
       Allison nodded and walked the two old women onto set. She slid
       her phone from her jacket pocket and sent a text to Mama Rose,
       Tyson's sitter.
       Allison.:. Going to be at work much later than I thought.
       Promise to pay you extra tonight. Thank you so much.
