New's POV

This is it, we'll know the result if Joss is really Nanon's father.

We met last week, together with my husband. At first, Joss was reluctant to talk to us. Well you can say he's a normal human being, because we just went to his usual shop where he buys coffee.

I remember his face when he looked back and forth to me and Off when we asked if we could sit with him, when the coffee shop wasn't even full.

Talking about stalking tendencies.

He was about to stand up to leave when I told him that Mild was my best friend. He just looked at us and left.

The second time when he saw us he immediately left the coffee shop, not even bothering to buy.

When we went to his office after another failed attempt, I tried to talk to him about my idea.

It's already been two weeks. The guy only went to that place alone twice a week. And since we are also busy arranging our wedding and finishing our deliverables at work, we only tried once a week to catch him.

"Babe what if—"

I'm not sure if he will agree to my suggestion, knowing my husband's jealousy tendency, hence the hesitation.

Off looking at the papers on his desk that he needs to sign. He asked me to wait as he will just attend a one hour meeting then we will go back home after.

"What if what babe?"

"What if I talk to Joss alone?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, he might be intimidated by you?"

"Ang laki ng katawan niya, bakit sya ma-intimidate sa akin? (He has a huge body, why would he be intimidated by me?)"

How can I say to my husband that though he has chinky eyes, that sparkles when he smiles. And fine brows that look so attractive when he raises them. And red lips that look so sexy when he smirks.

He intimidates people with his usual look, his corporate look. Especially when he is there waiting for the guy, leaning on the chair, his hands together, wearing his suit.

I just shook my head with his remark.

"We'll try again one more time, then if he still doesn't want to talk to us maybe we should just forget about him. What do you say?"

Off got a point, we shouldn't waste our time with him.

"Okay."

Last week, on our third attempt, we were a bit surprised when Joss was there in his usual seat.

He looks at us pointing at the chairs in front of him.

"Why don't you sit, I'm ready to talk to you both."

Off guides me on the chair like a gentleman, he let me sit first.

"Let me order drinks, what do you want, hubby?"

I don't know why he is still asking me when he knows my favourite drink, and when he always orders it for me. I look at him, his eyes telling me that he is waiting.

"Strawberry whipped cream." I answered, though confused, especially when he called me hubby, a pet name he used I think twice since we got married.

"How about you Joss?

"I'm good." Raising his cup of coffee.

"Ok, I will be back."
