....Eliana wasn't wrong,  her grandmother Mavis  really was a warm hearted  capable and a generous woman,  , because of her support  scholarship was given him and he was given admission in st Thomas  College from where he had  graduated,  years ago madam  Mavis  had also written a cook book  consisting of her  recipes,  he had learnt a lot of culinary skills from there,  he was  a success  doing  cookery shows  and food programs  and  all the credit  was given to Mavis 

How could he ever forget her grandmother,  her incredible  favors were  made  to him  but why  suddenly  so much interest  was Elaine taking in Mavis 

Elaine  explained him in a steady tone  she  was  reviewing her family history and restoring  its lost glory including her grandma  s cookbook , it all was  part of her  hobby 

You are right he said  nodding his head in affirmation,  the recipe book is certainly a  fantastic   cook book  never before written,  so beneficial and wholesome   for the 12 islanders,  Mavis  had become a star overnight  very busy and   sought-after personality 

Doing justice to her food  she had maintained  conversation  rolling over the dining table with him 

Both were together since high-school days,  they were good friends for over ten years now,  he would visit her  native place the 12 islands on business trips  five  six times a year,  they would be together  and spend  time together happily,  besides they met each other in Miami and  New York too
