“So, what made you busy Seigfred?" Buddy seems in the mood of talking.
“Some stuff in the office, a little drink here and there, having good meals like this with wonderful people I know,” the man’s voice is joking.
Buddy laughs and then inquire again, “Where did you meet our friend?”
“Mall parking, hahaha”
“Really, did she bump your car?" Tony laughed as he inquired.
“No, he bumped my car!” Yher answered with irritation.
The three men laughed that irritated Yhera more.
Seigfred simply looks at the beautiful woman sitting beside him. He cannot control himself to adore her.
Tony and Buddy can see that look of Seigfred to their best friend. They can tell that this man has an eye with their lady lawyer beautiful friend.
“Ahhmm, Seigfred, I said a while ago that your name and face seems familiar to me, do we met before?” Tony curiously asked.
“He is familiar friend because he is the owner of your condominium building and a lot of condominiums here and other countries,” Yhera answer instead with a little laugh while shrugging her shoulders.
Tony’s eyes grow bigger upon hearing her friend’s statement.
“OMG!, is that so?” Tony’s voice is full of surprise.
“Haha, I guess so. Don’t think about that, I am just a lowly Seigfred who is afraid of Atty. Yhera Kareel Munzana,” the chinky eyed man chuckles, while looking at Yher with his delightful eyes.
“Ahhmm, did I see something colourful here Mr. Yee, I mean, Seigfred?" Buddy joked.
“Hoping for that Buddy,” Seigfred’s voice suddenly became serious.
Tony and Buddy suddenly look at their BFF, whose face now is so red while putting down her glass of water.
Buddy after a while said, “We will be much happy, if your hope will happen Seigfred”, and then smiled at her friend Yhera who is still keeping her silence.
As they separate their ways, Seigfred promised to them that in the near coming days, he will invite them to his resort in Batangas City, which Tony and Buddy readily agreed, specially Tony who loves sea water the most. Yhera keeps her silence the whole time.
“If looks can kill, I might be dead now,” Buddy joked and put his arms around Yhera, who looked at her sharply but laughed thereafter.
“Sis, Why not give him a chance. He seems like a good man … and of course aside from being good looking, my God men, he is rich, as in super rich!” Tony emphasized the word rich while chuckling in disbelief.
“Friend, you know me. I have distanced myself already from good looking men ahaha, they will just make my heart bleeds again,” long but serious reply of Yhera.
Both of her two good friends shook their heads as a sign of disagreement to what she said.
“Remember, Yher, there are still few good men on this earth and that includes not only me and Tony but most probably Mr. Seigfred Yee.
The lady lawyer laughed out loud, “Hahaha, I saw that man days ago with a young sexy woman at the mall after sending me flowers, a day before!”
“Hmm, did you know who was that woman? Is she a fling or whatever of Mr. Yee?" Buddy is teasing Yhera.
“Well, he introduced us, by saying that Rhoda, the woman is their family friend”
“See Yher, she is just a family friend, nothing is wrong about that, the mere fact that he even introduced her to you.” Buddy is very obvious that he likes Seigfred for his friend.

Seigfred was looking at the profile of Yhera in her f*******: account. He is not actively updating his account as he finds it a waste of his precious time. But this time, he is thanking that there is this f*******:. He is laughing at himself; he seems like a high school teenager stalking his crush.
He checked Yhera’s friends and post likers. He noticed someone, seems like a lawyer too who always comments and put a heart on any of Yhera’s posted pictures. He checked the profile of the said man and gotcha, he realized who he is. He knows the man. He is Atty. Rob Aragon, the Legal Counsel of Nathan, one of his college friends, who owns various restaurants and a beach resort. As far as he knows this lawyer is a notorious playboy. He met him before during the birthday party of his friend and Nathan even teased him about a certain woman who was working as an accountant at Nathan’s chain of restaurants.
“Hah, Yhera, don’t ever dare date this man,” Seigfred murmurs.
In a flip of seconds, Seigfred was able to send an sss friend request to Atty. Yhera Kareel Munzana.
Yhera was so surprised upon checking who is requesting to be her sss friend. She did not know whether to accept him or not.
“Wow girl, he sent you a friend request, so fast Mr. Yee huh!” Exclaimed body who saw Yhera’s open sss. Buddy is sitting beside her. They are having refreshments at the balcony of Tony’s condo.
“Accept him friend, come on!” Buddy is so excited.
“Hmm, no”, Yhera said while locking her phone, to the dismay of Buddy.
“Killjoy, ammppp,” Buddy is teasing her friend.
It’s been one hour, but the sss friend request of Seigfred has been left unaccepted by Yhera. The businessman frowns.
In Yhera’s mind, she will let at least 2 or days to pass before she will accept the sss friend request of Mr. Seigfred Yee.
The next day however, Yhera received an sss message request from the young, handsome and wealthy businessman, saying, “Hello Atty. Yhera, how are you? I will pass by at your office this afternoon. Just wanted to discuss some legal matters. Thank you.”
Since the man mentioned about discussing legal matters, she is bound to reply, as a Lawyer. “This man really knows how to force someone not to ignore him.” Yhera shook her head and replied to the pesky man.
"Yes!," Seigfred shouted as he heard his phone beeped and saw Atty. Yhera's reply, "Alright. Just let me know when you are on your way already."
Seigred’s smile is from ear to ear as he called his Executive Assistant and told him to cancel his one meeting in the afternoon.
“But Sir, it is important; it is your Aunt Glenda.” Rolly insisted.
Seigfred shook his head. “Tell her I need to rush on something outside of the office, so she will not see me here.”
“Sir, she will curse me.” Rolly is scratching his head.
“Curse her back or would you want me to curse you if this woman I am meeting will kick my ass because I failed to come to our meeting place?” Seigfred voice is actually on a teasing tone.
“O wow Sir, you mean you are meeting that pretty lawyer that you asked me to research on?” Rolly’s eyes are in awe.
“Secret. Don’t ask for more or I will fire you!” Then Seigfred laughed happily, got his bag and car key and left Rolly scratching his head.
