Buddy was really captivated by Ms. Shandall’s charm and Atty. Yhera easily noticed it.
“Ms. Shandall, are you still staying in your beach resort until now?” Atty. Yhera asked wanting to have a longer conversation with the novelist for the sake of her friend Buddy, who is still looking at Ms. Shandall without batting an eye.
Ms. Shandall nodded and smiled, “Yes, Atty, Yhera, I might be there for a month until I finished my latest novel.”
Buddy furrowed upon hearing what Ms. Shandall has said. “Latest novel? You are a writer?” he asked in awe.
Ms. Shandall looked at Buddy and nodded, “Yes, Mr. Buddy, I am more into writing novels.”
“Wow, awesome. I want to read your books Ms. Shandall,” Buddy said with his bright eyes wonderfully looking at the novelist in front of her.
Ms. Shandall's smile grew wider with what Buddy has said.
“I will truly appreciate it, Mr. Buddy. My pen name is LuckyOne. You can find some of my novels, online, you can just google my pen name.” Ms. Shandall said happily.
“I will take note of that Ms. Shandall. Good luck with your new book.” Buddy even bowed as he beams toward Ms. Shandall.
“Thank you, Mr. Buddy and Atty. Yhera, I got to go. Please extend my regards to Mr. Seigfred. And by the way Atty. Yhera, I hope you could really come during my book signing next month.” Ms. Shandall said before excusing herself from them and saying goodbye.
“Buddy, what happened to you? You seemed to have fallen in love at first sight,” Atty. Yhera teased her best friend, whose laughter suddenly erupted.
“You have to give me the mobile number of Ms. Shandall friend, alright?” Buddy said thereafter.
“No problem friend, I will support you with whatever you feel with Ms. Shandall,” Atty. Yhera teased him again.
They were happily teasing each other when Seigfred and Tony came around
“What’s the happy moment all about?” Tony asked with a raised eyebrow.
“Oh, you know what Tony; our friend here, seems to finally found the one.” Atty. Yhera said giggling and Buddy just laughed out loud.
“Hmm, it’s time Buddy. Who is the unlucky one? I mean, the lucky girl?” Tony asked joking.
“Sweety, remember Ms. Shandall?” She faced Seigfred who was also in a happy mood.
Seifgred nodded. “Of course, Sweety. What about her?”
“We saw her here just a while ago and Buddy here was captivated by her beauty.” Atty. Yhera said smiling.
Seigfred’s smile grew from ear to ear. “Wow, that’s nice Buddy. You have to do some speedy moves because as I noticed it, the young Doctor who attended me, has an eye also towards her.”
Buddy frowned and shook his head. “That’s awful. I guess, I need to extend my vacation here,” he murmured thereafter.
Tony, Seigfred and Atty. Yhera looked at each other and gave each other a high five.

When they returned to the beach resort of Seigfred, Buddy was still asking Seigfred and Atty. Yhera about Ms. Shandall.
“Yher, can we passed-by her resort before we go home tomorrow?” Buddy suddenly requested, to which Seigfred immediately agreed.
“Of course Buddy. We want you to be happy, you know, right Sweety and Tony?” Seigfred said winking at Atty. Yhera and Tony. The two nodded, grinning.
So, the next day, they used Seigfred’s speed boat and sailed towards the beach resort of Ms. Shandall. Buddy was excited at the same time, they could sense that he became tense when they docked at the seashore of Ms. Shandall’s beach resort.
“Come on down Buddy, what are you waiting for?” Atty. Yhera said while poking Buddy a naughty look.
“Ugh, don’t look at me like that, I am just composing myself first,” Buddy said as he jumped down the Speed boat.
They were greeted by some of the resort’s staff, who recognized both Seigfred and Atty. Yhera.
After a while, they saw Ms. Shandall walking towards them with a companion beside her.
Atty. Yhera and Seigfred suddenly looked at each other, holding their smiles as they saw Buddy frowned upon seeing Ms. Shandall and the man beside her.
“Who is that man?” Buddy asked Atty. Yhera, murmuring.
“Friend, he is Dr. Pol, the young Doctor who took good care of Seigfred when he was here.”
“Gaddamit, I wondered if he is always here,” Buddy murmured again, almost hissing and Atty. Yhera could not help to giggle noticing the way her friend, Buddy has been showing his jealousy toward his rival Doctor to Ms. Shandall.
“Shh, relax and give her your killer smile, when they are near us,” Atty. Yhera murmured back, advising him what to do.
“Hello, what a surprise, Atty. Yhera, Seigfred, Mr. Buddy, and company,” Ms. Shandall greeted them with delight while her eyes have been focused more on Seigfred.
Atty. Yhera saw it, and so with Buddy and suddenly, they looked at each other, with hidden questions in their eyes.
