"Even if you want to have sex with a guy, shouldn't he at least be able to afford a motel?" He asked in mixed feelings of anger and mockery.
Tyndall dart him a sharp look. "And what are you insinuating?" She asked.
She wanted to cry because the first time she did this and she got caught by her worst enemy. Somaria will kill her for what she just did.
"That, this is shameful. At least he has a house" he replied dryly.
"Don't you dare insult me. What I do is none of your business" she shouted.
"Yeah I know but I could lend you some piece of advice" he said moving closer to her. "Preserve your dignity Tin. Your are worth more".
"How dare you!" She slapped him.
Juan was surprised at the slap. Even Tyndall looked her hand as she slapped him and she closed her eyes in regret.
"I'm sorry" she said softly.
Juan didn't say any more, he just walked out.
Tyndall went to her chair and cried. She didn't even know how to relate this to her sisters.
Her phone beeped and she saw Dale's text message.
I'm so sorry baby.
She smiled stiffly. She humiliated herself and she need to face the consequences.

Although Juan and Somaria do get in touch well, it's been a long time they've seen in person. That morning, Somaria dressed, packed some few things and headed for Juan's office without informing him. Juan was surprised by her sudden visit but was glad she came. Despite the fact that he is not getting what he wanted from their relationship, he still enjoy her been around than other ladies.
"You've never gave me a clue that you are showing up" he said giving her a hug.
"Just wanna give you a surprise" she s!lied.
Juan gave her a skeptic look.
"What?" She asked.
"Wanna surprise me or Tin told you that I've started firlting around and you decided to check it out yourself" he said with a smile.
Somaria frowns. "Come off it Juan. Tin might be uncorporative a times but she doesn't cook up stories" she said with a rebuking look.
Juan hugged her. "Just kidding baby" he laughed.
"I know a day is coming when you two will make up and become friends" she said hopefully.
"That's a prayer I need to say a big amen to".
"I miss you Juan" she said sweetly.
"Miss you too baby. These few days is just like hell to me" he said with a wane smile.
They both sat down.
"Awwwnn..... My pretty boy" she ruffled his hair with an encouraging smile.
"It got to a stage that I felt like to clone myself" he added.
"Why is the work load so much?"
"There are these companies who wants me to personally handle their work. It's kinda killing me" he complained.
"Why you?" She frowned.
"They claim they don't trust anyone's judgment aside mine. They want me in to to".
"It is will a relief if you do it one after the other" she adviced.
"That's exactly the problem. No one wants to calm down. They want it done as soon as possible especially that of Tin's company. Their work is super tedious and their boss still want haste".
"You need to at least take a rest. You can't break down Juan" she said softly.
"I know but what will I do. Customers are always right" he smiled.
She moved closer to him placing her head on his chest. "I'm spending the whole day with you and don't expect me to spend that day with you in this office" she said playfully.
"Ria I'm busy" he gave an apologetic look.
"I know but I'm not taking a no for answer" she said playing with his suit button.
"I....."
She cuts in. "No Juan" she shook her head looking at him. "You been busy that we couldn't even have a lunch. Taking a day off won't ruin your work. Isn't it almost noon? You've done a half a day job" she said seriously.
Ever since Juan knew Somaria she has always been understanding. Unlike other ladies she doesn't complain. He knew he had to concur.
"Where do you wanna go?" He asked smiling.
Immediately he concurred, her mood brighten. "Your house" she replied with zest.
"My house?" He asked shocked.
Ever since he's been going out with her, she has not for once voluntarily come to his place even when he asked her to come around, she is always with an excuse.
Juan felt so uneasy with her request and he couldn't hide his suspicious look.
"Or am I prohibited to?" She asked with a feign sad look.
She knew Juan as the right to be surprised because of her usual refusal whenever her proposed going to his house. She wouldn't want to go to his place because Tyndall refused to accompany her.
Those times she went was because he was not feeling too good and she would meet Jason there. So it is just like she wants to go afresh now.
When they got to his house, she realised that it was void of people.
"Didn't you use to have home engineers?" She asked scrutinizing the room.
"I still do but they don't stay" he said removing his jacket.
"Even your gate man?"
"I don't need a gate man. Have you forgotten who I am? My devices will do more" he said boast full with a smirk.
