    INT. NANA’S OFFICE – MORNING

    “The sun’s first rays pierce through the half-open blinds, casting a gentle glow across the room. We see close-ups of various items on Nana’s desk: a steaming mug of coffee, a pile of paperwork, and a silver laptop displaying an inbox of unread emails. A soft hum emanates from the laptop.

    The ambient sound is interrupted by the distinct buzz of a smartphone. The camera pans to Nana’s desk, where her phone lies next to her laptop. The screen lights up, showing an incoming call from “Beth” with a foreign number.

    Nana, a young woman with keen eyes that always seem to be plotting the next big event, gazes at the phone with a mix of curiosity and slight suspicion.”

    Nana (whispering to herself, eyebrows furrowed): “Beth? Why does that name sound so… unfamiliar?”

    After a moment of contemplation, she swipes to answer, holding the phone to her ear.

    Beth (voice clear, carrying a distinct American accent): “Hello? Is this Nana? Hey! It’s Beth, all the way from the States. I stumbled upon your event highlights on TikTok. My God, they’re breathtaking! I’ve got a request. I need you to be the magic behind my wedding in Diani, Mombasa.”

    Nana’s eyes widen, her posture straightens, and a grin begins to form on her face.

    Nana (her voice filled with gratitude): “Oh, Beth! That’s so kind of you to say. I’m truly honoured.”

    Beth (chuckling softly): “Well, I hope you’re ready for a challenge. It’s happening next month. My fiancée’s already in Kenya. I’ll send over his contact shortly.”

    Nana’s excitement grows palpable as her eyes shimmer with enthusiasm.

    Nana: “Next month? That’s tight but challenge accepted! I can’t wait!”

    Beth: “That’s what I wanted to hear! Talk soon.”

    As the call ends, Nana wastes no time. She quickly dials another number, bouncing slightly in her chair with anticipation.

    Nana (voice bubbling with excitement): “Suzzy! Oh, you have no idea what just landed on our lap! Get ready – we’re about to craft the wedding of the century!”
