Tumakbo ako papunta sa restaurant at ka agad pumasok sa loon para hanapin si Mrs. Jia.

" uy, maaga ka ngayon ah." -Mrs. Jia

" good morning po, Mrs. Jia. May dala po akong tinapay, binili ko doon sa kanto." -Jing Xiao

I handed her a plastic bag filled with freshly baked bread and she smiled as she took it from me.

" thank you, dear." -Mrs. Jia

She said as she placed the plastic bag inside her office before coming back to have coffee with me.

Actually ever since I met her, everyday we have a coffee time together inside the restaurant and we spend time together.

" by the way, do you have any plans this afternoon, I saw a mall near here, we can buy a lot of dresses there like matching ones. What do you think?" -Mrs. Jia

" I can't say no to this kind of opportunity. And it's also one of my ways to say thank you for the expensive gift you gave me." -Jing Xiao

" alright, and even if you say no, you know that I will still find a way to force you to say yes." -Mrs. Jia

" bakit parang mas importante si Mrs. Jia kaysa sa akin?" -Si Cheng

He pouted as he followed my steps while I am currently looking for a nice dress to wear.

" Si Cheng, I always spend time with you. Just let me spend my time with Mrs. Jia too, you know what happened to her right?" -Jing Xiao

Si Cheng nodded as I cupped both of his cheeks and giving him a kiss on the forehead.

" one more." -Si Cheng

I let out a chuckle before kissing his lips.

" oh, okay na?" -Jing Xiao

" mas okay pa sa okay." -Si Cheng

He giggled like a little kid before hugging me and waving as I walk out of our room.

Mall...

I got inside the fitting room, with the dresses Mrs. Jia wanted me to try on.

Sinuot ko ka agad ito bago ayusin ang buhok ko at lumabas ng fitting room.

" wow, you look really amazing, Jing Xiao. I told you, that dress has finally found its owner." -Mrs. Jia

" thank you, mom. You look good at the dress too." -Jing Xiao

" m-mom?" -Mrs. Jia

I covered my mouth as I realized what I just said.

" u-um... Sorry. I got... Um..." -Jing Xiao

" no it's fine. Let's try the others, shall we?" -Mrs. Jia

I nodded my head and was about to go inside the fitting room again when my phone started to ring.

" um... Excuse me, Mrs. Jia. I have to take this call." -Jing Xiao

" oh okay. Go on." -Mrs. Jia

I smiled at her before answering the phone call.

Phone call...

Mom: nak?

Jing Xiao: ma! Hi po, bakit po kayo napatawag?

Mom: mangangamusta lang sana. Tinawagan ko si Si Cheng kanina, sabi niya may pinuntahan ka daw at may mga bagay rin kaming pinag-usapan.

Jing Xiao: ma, anong pinag-usapan niyo ha?

Mom: sabi niya, baka magkakababy na kayo. So... May baby na ba?

Jing Xiao: ma naman oh. Bakit ba gusto niyo talaga ng baby? Kayo pala ni papa?

Mom: Byun Jing Xiao, matanda na kami ng papa mo, okay?

Jing Xiao: ah... Eh pwede naman si kuya, yun ang ibaby niyo.

Mrs. Jia's Pov.

I heard her laugh as she and her mom talk on the phone.

If my Jing Xiao is here, will we be like this too?

Will we laugh and talk comfortably with each other like they do?

" Mrs. Jia!" -Jing Xiao

Jing Xiao yelled as she ran towards me with the clothes still on her arms.

I smiled at her before we continued to go look around to buy some more clothes.

After we payed for the dresses she went home and I went to my home as well.

" good evening, Mrs. Jia. There is a letter that came from somebody." -butler

My butler said as he handed me an envelope with no name written on it.

I didn't hesitated to open it and read it.

" dear Mrs. Jia,
I wanted to have a meeting with you this Sunday evening.
Don't worry I am not a bad person and I won't do anything to hurt you.
I just wanted to ask some questions that is connected to your long lost daughter and I know how much you wanted to meet her.
So please meet with me, so I can help you."

My eyes widened as I red the whole letter.

I immediately stood up from the sofa and took my coat that was laying on the table.

" Mrs. Jia, where are you going? Don't tell me you are going to believe what that person says and you will go to meet him in this instance." -butler

" I have too, what if he really can help me find Jing Xiao?" -Mrs. Jia

" Mrs. Jia, Mrs. Jia. Calm yourself down. We don't know what this person might be capable of. Please stay, we are not sure and it's almost 10 pm, it's dangerous outside." -butler

" but-" -Mrs. Jia

" Mrs. Jia. Madam Kim wants me to take care and protect you in anyway. I don't want to disappoint her. Please just stay." -butler

I looked at the front door and thought and processed everything for a while.

Maybe, my butler is right, I think I should stay here and just ignore the letter because it might be dangerous.

A/n's Pov.

A male was waiting outside Mrs. Jia's house, hoping that she would read the letter he gave.

But it looks he failed so he took his phone and just called his friend.

Phone call...

???: hey. Si Cheng, we've got a slight problem with your plan.
