"Not gonna lie, now that I finally get to know you, I do feel great, gumagaan na yung loob ko. Thank you for meeting us here ija ha?" Atty. Liza said smiling as she taps my shoulder.

"Okay okay here's some snacks. I hope you still have room in your stomach Emma ka." Mr. Bongbong came into the room with a tray on his hands, mga sandwiches ito.

Hindi pa naman ako nagugutom pero parang gusto kong kumain hehe. Kunti lang, malapit na rin naman mag lunch time.

Pero bago pa niya ito ilagay sa lamesa ay huminto ito at tumingin sa asawa niya tapos sa akin.

"Wait, I guess you're done talking right?" He asked, na parang nag aalinlangan pang ilagay ang tray sa lamesa, her wife laughed and nodded in response.

"Liza, are you crying? my goodness darling why?" He looked at her. He even held her cheeks to look at her swollen eyes.

"Obvious naman siguro diba?" Natatawa pang sabi ni Atty.

"Emma, emotional talaga yang si Mom. Pagpasensyahan mo na." Simon entered the conversation. A tray was on his hands, drinks.

"Okay that's it boys enough about me, may pinag-usapan lang naman kami okay? let's talk something else while we wait for Sandro."

So yeah we talked, random things. I tell them about my trainee days, Mr. Bongbong's experiences as senator, cases that are handled by Atty. Liza and Simon's education background.

We had a great time-I had a great time with them.

"Wait we didn't notice the time, anong oras na ba? Sandro is still not here? malapit ng mag lunch time oh. Nakakahiya na kay Emma at pinaghintay pa natin siya." Mr. Bongbong said.

"Hanap tayo ng hanap sa kaniya, we can call him naman." Simon gets his phone and dialed his brother.

Few seconds of ringing, sumagot na rin ito.

"Hey, where are you? diba dad already reminded you last night?-" he was cut off.

"Oh, it's urgent meeting daw." He said half-whispering to his parents.

"Yeah, the agent's here. Aren't you gonna meet her?" Tanong pa nito, he looked at me while waiting for an answer.

Ano ba yan, kinabahan naman ako.

"Then find a way and lend some time dude, nakakahiya naman kung papauwiin namin siya. You know mom called her here to meet her and a chance for you to meet her too."

"Good, text me the address sasabihin ko nalang sa kaniya- okay cool. Bye." After that he hang up the phone.

"So? what did he say?" Tanong ni Atty. Liza, ako naman dito tahimik lang na nakikinig sa kanila.

"There was an urgent meeting earlier sa office nila kaya nagmamadali siya. His schedules are fully loaded but good thing he cleared his afternoon sched- he wants to meet you over for lunch." Simon said then looked at me.

"A-ako lang?"

"Yeah, ikaw lang naman kailangan niya." Simon chuckled.

"Gusto mo bang magpasama kay Juls?" Tanong ni Mr. Bongbong.

"Magpapahatid nalang po ako."

"Sandro already texted me the address, ako na hahatid sayo." Simon offered, I looked at him slightly shocked, and then to his parents who are smiling.

"Naku huwag na baka may gagawin ka pa. Nakakahiya naman-"  I was cut off by Atty. Liza.

"Thank you nak, don't worry dear wala naman yang ginagawa. He's on his day off. Please sumama ka nalang sa kaniya. Sa amin ko nalang e sasama si Juls. We still have some meetings to attend to." She explained. Okay, nakakahiya ng tumanggi baka sabihin pa nila nag iinarte pa ako.
