Pagdating ni Thirdy sa office the next morning, tinawag sya ni Jigs before even entering the building.

"Pwede ba tayo magusap?"

"Okay." Sagot ni Thirdy sa kanya.

"You're not comfortable with Bea working for me, tama?"

"Yes."

"So, how can we solve this problem?"

"Wala na tayo magagawa. Bea wants to work with you, nagttrabaho naman sya, wala na ako magagawa."

"I'm glad ganyan ang naisip mo. Kailangan ni Bea ang trabaho at pera na nakukuha nya sa sweldo nya."

"Pera?"

"May problem sila Bea sa flower shop, I think they will have the coffee shop part rented." Jigs went on to tell him kung ano ang problema sa flower shop.

"Okay, sige." Un lang ang sinagot ni Thirdy.

-------------------------------------------------------

T: Hello, Mr. Aytona, yes, may irerecommend lang akong flower shop sa inyo that I know you will be pleased.

MA: Sige, saan ito?

T: I'll send you the phone number, you can call them and you can ask for their address.

------------------------------------------------

Before Bea went to work, sinabi sa kanya ng Tita nya na meron sila malaking client and is looking for a long term business.

"Saan daw nya nalaman ung tungkol sa flower shop natin."

"Recommendation daw."

"Ohh Tita, baka si Jigs, remember nung nagpunta sya dito, narining nya ung usapan natin tungkol sa problema sa flower shop."


When she came to the office, agad sya sinalubong ni Jigs.

"Sorry, late ata ako."

"It's okay, Bea. Kamusta pakiramdam mo?"

"Okay lang, sana wala ako ginawang nakakahiya kagabi. Sya nga pala, I want to thank you."

Thirdy was within arm's length, eavesdropping.

"Sinabi ni Tita sa akin kanina may client na tumawag sa kanya who wants a long term wholesale order."

"And then? Sorry, diko nagets."

"Ikaw lang naman may alam nung problema sa flower shop. I know you recommended our flower shop. Thank you talaga."

"But-" Jigs was about to say.

"Jigs, may meeting tayo." Thirdy said as he barged in.

------------------------------------------

He waited for Jigs in another meeting room. He asked a lot of things about him, things that Anton found out while researching about Jigs. He found out na sa same city sila lumaki ni Bea and that he went to the university as a scholar which was funded by a company for talented and less fortunate students.

"Interesting ung company mo sa Italy. Do you have, by chance a secret partner?" Thirdy asked him.

"Meron, but hindi pa ito ang tamang panahon para ireveal ko sya dahil ito ang preference nya. Soon malalaman mo din, at ipapakilala ko sya sayo."

----------------------------------------

Bea noticed na pinapalitan ni Thirdy ang blueprint na ginawa nya, she was so enraged that she immediately went to Thirdy's office.
