"Diana, I really need to leave now." Lisa said. However, Diana seems to ignore it. Once, Lisa stole a glance to her secretary, hoping that Irene would lend a hand for help. She saw Irene's brow knitted confusingly while the irritated expression that she inserted to her frown implied how annoyed she was to see Diana around.

"Oh please Lisa. I've been looking for you since I arrived her last week." Diana gaze at her with a pleading look. They gaze into each other's eyes momentarily. All Lisa saw in the reflection of Diana's eyes were the long kept stories which were now ignited desperately for someone to hear it's content.

"I'm just so occupied. Besides I don't know that you would come back here." Lisa started to feel awkward. It was roughly about ten years or more since they last met. Both had grown up into different person whose the old time shared the same life story.






"I just feel like I want to come back here." Diana said half whispering. Lisa could sense that the drama was about to start. She hated this.

"EHEM!" It was so lucky that Irene came to interrupt. The gorgeous secretary stood right next to the couch, near to Diana. Both Lisa and Diana peeked to look at Irene. The young maiden folded her arms with her disgruntled demeanour. She inserted a lopsided sneer to her pose. Everybody could read her body language. The secretary was irked by Diana's presence.

"Excuse me. May I know who are you Miss?" Irene still acted professionally even though Lisa knew that her secretary could be more mean than she looked.

"Do you know that every appointment with Miss Manoban needs  to pass my arrangement first?" Irene said in one sharp line.

"And who are you?" Diana frowned. The tense inside the room start to build up. Diana's blazing eyes burrowed into Irene's while the opponent seems not to surrender.

"Obviously I am Lisa's secretary. Are you deaf or what? Don't you hear I mentioned to you earlier that every appointment with Lisa needs to pass my arrangement first?" Snapped Irene. Her true self started to show up.

"Ugh, I don't need that." Lisa saw Diana rolled her eyes to Irene. "Lisa, I can meet you anytime, right?" Diana turned to look at the innocent woman. She got frustrated response from Lisa when the woman seems to be on the fence. Lisa just shrugged, uncertain with her own reaction.

"Look, you're not welcome here." Irene said just to change Diana's patience. Lisa saw it herself, Diana gritted her teeth as if she was trying to control her outburst.

"Lisa, your secretary is so rude! Tell her who I am to you." Diana spat. Her rising tone implied how aggressive she could be if Irene started to talk once again. The volcano of irritation will erupt in no time.

"What did you say?!" Irene's eyes widen. Imagine the sparks of electrical charges looming out from her eyes, the secretary was all ready to pick a fight with Diana.

"You're so rude!" Diana repeated it with a dramatic annoying tone in her voice.

"Have you ever look at yourself in the mirror? I don't think you did realize it. Let me tell you. You're such a shameless barbaric bitch!" Irene countered with a loud snort. Irene's words was surely managed to vent Diana's anger. Lisa's sight followed Diana's figure whose later rose up from her seat. The lady looked terribly indignant.

"What?" Irene was so brave. The two ladies closed up their distance which Lisa estimate their forehead would bump into each other if anyone of them did a move.
