Obispo Residence

Sunshine wakes up earlier than the previous days. She is already prepared for work in Sinagtala when she went out of her room for breakfast. Jorge was already in the dining area having breakfast with Tatay Teddy and Benji.

"Good morning Ms. Obispo" Jorge greeted her as soon as he sees her

"Good morning" Sunshine greeted back. Benji stood up to help Sunshine to her seat but immediately sits back when he sees Jorge stood up as well and gladly assists Sunshine on her seat beside him.

"Good morning Sinag" Benji greeted her and Sinag looks at him and briefly smile to acknowledge his courtesy

"Kamusta ang tulog mo anak? Nahihirapan ka pa rin ba?" Tatay Teddy asked

"Mas ok na po Tay kesa nung nakaraang gabi" Sunshine replied

"Mabuti naman kung ganon" Tatay Teddy commented. "Nakausap mo na ba si Beverly?" he asked

"Not yet po Tay. Hindi ko nasagot yung tawag nya kahapon eh" Sunshine replied

"Magcheck ka ng email mo, nandun yung modification ng training itinerary mo. Ayos lang sa akin yung mga suggestions nya, pati na rin dito sa team ni Benji wala rin problema. Ikaw na lang ang hinihintay namin" Tatay Teddy said

"Kung ok na po sa inyo ni Beverly, wala pong problema sa kin Tay" Sunshine replied

"Ganun naman pala, wala na tayong problema Benji" Tatay Teddy said. "Si Jorge nagpapaalam na, aalis na daw sya pagka-almusal" he added

"Nabanggit nya na po sa akin kahapon Tay. Babalikan na lang daw nya ako" Sunshine replied

"Just let me know when are you going back to Manila" Jorge said

"Of course" Sunshine gladly replied while Benji just remained talkless and continued eating his breakfast.

"Aabalahin mo pa si Jorge eh pwede ka namang sumabay kay Benji pabalik ng Manila sa isang araw" Tatay Teddy said

"Sa isang araw? Akala ko po magtatagal ako dito sa Candelaria kasi sabay ang orientation sa hands-on" Sunshine asked

"Oo nga pero kailangang nasa Maynila ka sa Miyerkoles dahil ipapakilala ka ni Benji dun sa mga supplier natin. Nag-arrange ng dinner ang team ni Benji para makilala ka ng mga malalaki nating supplier. Yan ang nakalagay sa original na itinerary mo, mahirap nang baguhin kasi nai-set na nila Benji ang lahat tungkol sa diiner na yun. Pagkatapos nun, balik na kayo ulit dito sa Candelaria" Tatay Teddy replied

"Hindi ba pwedeng sabay na kami ni Jorge bumalik ng Manila ngayon?" Sunshine asked

"Hindi pwede, sayang ang araw kung babalik ka na sa Maynila ngayon" Tatay Teddy said

"I know you'll miss me Sunshine but I also have work in Manila. Just give me a call as soon as you get back in Manila and I will quickly fly to you wherever you are" Jorge teasingly said

"Ako lang po ba ang haharap sa mga supplier Tay? Don't you think maganda rin na nandun kayo?" Sunshine asked

"Hindi ko pa kayang mag byahe ng ganun katagal Sinag. Atsaka napakainit sa Maynila, hindi ako tatagal dun" Tatay Teddy replied. "Hindi ka naman papabayaan ni Benji" he added. Sunshine throws a sharp stare at Benji. She noticed that in the entire conversation he never uttered even a single word and just lets Tatay Teddy do all the talking.

Sunshine prefers not to comment anymore. She will never win to her father so she did not exert an additional effort to object on her itinerary. At this moment, she wishes that the six months will be over sooner.
