"What have I to do? You know I hate it when you get mad at me" she said politely. "Stop being mad Ria. I'm truely sorry" she pleaded.
This was the first time in years that Juan will see her calm self aside her proud one. He likes this polite attitude but he knew it won't last.
"Alright" she raised her hand in defeat. "You are discharged and acquitted" Somaria smiled.
Tyndall hugged her. "Thank you" she then turned to Juan. "Juan" she called.
Juan understood why she called him. "Never held a grudge before" he smiled.
"And that simply means you are taking this" her words were more of a command than request as she poured the drink into the tumbler she brought.
Juan didn't reply he just watch her pour the drink and she glared at him for an answer which he did with a curt nod.
"Then I'll finish this" she raise the bottle of the drink Somaria brought.
"You still want to take the drink that almost choke you?" Somaria asked.
"I'm not gonna let it waste" she replied.
"Just be careful" Juan warned gently.
"You juat made me end the call I was receiving" she hissed and Tyndall gave her a suspicious look.
"Hello honey" she called back.
Tyndall looked from her sister to Juan who wore a smile which she thought it is abnormal to wear at the sound of Somaria's words.
"Aunty Ria hope no problem?" Clary asked.
"Yes dear. It's just my little sis".
"You've got a little sis?" His excitement grew.
"Yes I do dear" she laughed at Tyndall who frowned.
"Who's that?" She mouthed but Somaria only smiled.
She and Clary continued to talk that Juan and Tyndall begin to wonder what was so interesting about the person at the other end that Somaria couldn't stop laughing. Later she stretched the phone to Tyndall.
"My friend wants to say hi" she said with a bright smile.
Tyndall reluctantly took the phone, looking at Juan with one eye. "Hello".
"Hello I'm Clary. I'm aunty Ria's new friend".
Tyndall almost got a heart stop at the voice he heard. She was expecting an elderly voice but to her surprise, she heard a baby speaking. She shined her eyes at smiling Somaria who already knew she would be surprised.
"Hello I'm Tyndall. How are you?"
"I'm good and you?"
"Same here".
"Aunty Ria told me she has a little sis so I decided to say hi".
"That's so thoughtful of you" she smiled.
"I k ow we will know each other better and it will be a pleasure".
"It will surely be my pleasure too".
"By the way, you've got a melodious voice".
Tyndall burst into laughter. "That's so sweet of you".
" we'll catch up later" he said.
"Sure we will".
Tyndall handed the phone back to Somaria who talked with him more before ending the call.
"You didn't tell me you got yoursel a little man friend?" Tyndall teased.
"That little folk is a brainy" she said with excitement.
Juan and Tyndall gave her an interested look and she narrated the whole senero to them.
"Wow! That's interesting" Tyndall smiled.

Agatha jumped into the office and ran towards Tyndall's desk.
"The boss' friend is around" she said elated.
Tyndall frowned because she didn't see any reason for her fuss.
"And what has that got to do with you or me?"
"That guy is super handsome" she said rolling her wrist and her eyes.
"Oh oh" Tyndall shook her head in sympathy.
Tyndall who wasn't interested in what her colleague was saying continued with what she was doing before she badged in.
It wasn't as if she wasn't interested in knowing the guy that makes all the ladies in the company shakes whenever he is around, she juat doesn't want to look like other ladies who seems so engrossed in the guy so she us waiting on a neutral ground to meet him.
Tyndall shared an office with there other folks. Aside her and Agatha, they had two males who are mostly on field. So it is mostly her and Agatha who is known as the talkertive but kind. She get trilled at trivial things that most times her words are ignored.
"I wish the boss will just call me so I can take a look at his friend" she said with a dreaming look.
Tyndall smiled at her mockingly. "Hey miss Dreamer. Have you prepared yourself for the upcoming meeting?"
"What meeting?" She said still in her dreamland with her eyes closed.
Tyndall laughed out loud. "So you forgot about the meeting because of a guy"?" She mocked.
Tyndall always think Agatha to be naive because of her ways of getting intrigued easily.
Agatha opened her eyes. "Sure mi'lady" she smiled.
"You must be silly" she thought she her reply was that she forgot about the meeting.
"About the meeting" she sat down and got serious. "Mrs Lans told me that the company has changed her IT consultant and that installations of new IT gadgets will start next week. Their fist week will bring about holiday for us all" she explained.
