She picked her steps one after the other as if there is jello on the floor and she is minding not falling. Juan's office hasn't been a thing of interest to her but today was worse. She felt like she died and her judgement is to go to hell. So a demon is escorting her to hell which is Juan's office.
Juan wasn't expecting Tyndall's happy face but what he saw almost gave him a heart stop. He has never in his entire life see someone as red as that just because of crying. His look gave out concern. His thought was that if any of her family member sees her like this, they would think he overreacted while he hasn't even said a word.
Tyndall bowed her head trying to hide her poor state and was expecting a lambaste. She wouldn't blame him if he does that because she knows that even if she's the one, ahe won't take it lightly. She was so ready for anything he wishes to do.
"Sit" he commanded.
Tyndall looked up surprised forgetting how she looked like a burning fire.
"I hate this look" he grumbled closing his eyes as if that would change her look.
He hates to see someone cry not to talk of someone close as Tyndall. He had to watch his mother CTY during her marriage crisis and the pain she passed through for crying for months. That gave him a weak point. He wouldn't be balanced whenever he sees a lady's tears and again Tyndall.
"Won't her family think I'm been wicked because her sister ended our relationship?" He thought.
He knew he needed to ride carefully when it comes to Tyndall so as not to cause more trouble and also not to be taken for granted. He looked at her sternly and he could visibly see her shivering.
"I'm sorry Juan" she said as her tears dropped and she quickly cleaned it with the back of her hand immediately.
She forgot she wasn't suppose to address him by his first name.
"I mean Mr Gustavo" she corrected quickly.
Juan wasn't concerned with what she calls him. He looked at the guys with him. He can't talk with Tyndall there. They won't understand their relationship and rumors can be birth from there.
"That would be all for now" he said to them.
They understand him quite well and bowed then left.
"I don't need your apology. I'm desperately in need of the full explanation of how the gadget got tampered with" he said as his guys turned to leave.
He didn't wear a friendly look but a strict one.
Tyndall wasn't expecting to be questioned this way. She was expecting a condemning lambaste and aggressive words but none was coming from him. This put her my at ease for the moment.
"I did everything instructed" she said with a quaking voice.
Juan was tired of her tears. "I didn't say cry. I said explain" he said firmly.
Tyndall couldn't help the tears. She didn't know what to explain. "I don't have an explanation for what happened" her voice was so low that Juan had to strain his ears to hear her.
Juan looked at her and his heart broke that he needed to do this to ever smiling Tyndall.
"I said stop crying. Dry your tears Tin. I'm scared of your look" he said with a frown.
Just that word stopped the outflow of her tears. She didn't expect him to say such. She knew he wasn't scared but he doesn't like how she looks and that explains that he is concerned about her. This gave her a huge chunk of ease.
"When did you leave yesterday?"
She cleaned her tears with her palm. "That should be around 6:30pm or thereabout".
"Sis anyone follow you to that room?"
She shook her head. "I didn't noticed anyone" she tried to recollect seeing anyone.
Juan was silent trying to figure out what would have happened.
"Is it that bad?" She asked.
He nodded and she started another round of tears.
"Stop crying Tin, it's not making me think" he said softly.
She looked at him not understanding his words.
"And please stop looking at me with those horrific eyes" he frowned.
She didn't heed to his words. She was to beaten than to decide the meaning of his words.
"May I go see the gadget?" She asked wanting to see for herself the damaged done.
"I need to call my brother" he said without replying her.
"Why?" She asked quickly.
Juan chuckled as she asked why in fear.
"Are you scared of my brother again?" He smirked.
"How could he joke in such situation?" She asked inwards with a frown.
"I'm only going to ask him if I can get someone for the repair" he explained knowing her mind won't be at peace until he does tell his reason.
