Tiara got a little startled and swiftly turned to the voice behind her but was quiet surprised to see a middle age man with a bright smile on his face.
"How may I help you young lady?" he queried.
"Hmm...sorry sir but do you work here?" I kind of lost my card around this place."
"Well.., I'm the driver for the manager of this company. I'm Mr. Bob."
"Nice to meet you Mr. Bob.."
"Nice to meet you too dear. But...for you missen item, I don't know if I can be of much help. Anyway, how did it get missen?"
"Well...hmm.., I kind of bumped into a gentleman over here." she muttered, pointing to the spot of the incident.
"And...all his documents fell so I helped him picked them up and I guess I added it to those documents."
"Oh okay, so about this gentleman, do you know him? Probably, his name?"
"Actual...ly, I didn't ask of his name. I was kind of in a hurry that day." she replied, slightly giggling.
"But I kind of remember his face. He has bright eyes and a beautiful smile. He has an average height." she added, describing Andy.
Just then, Mr. Bob figured out who she was talking about.
Andy was coming out of the building, followed by his secretary when he noticed Mr. Bob with a young lady.
"Is that not her..?" he thought to himself.
"Let's talk more on this project tomorrow, Chelsey. Something just came up."
"Okay sir."
"See you tomorrow." he uttered, slightly patting her shoulder as he strolled off to where Tiara and Mr. Bob stood.
"Oh, I guess I know who you're talking about." Andy heard him mumbled as he drew nearer to them.
"Really? Who is he? Please tell me, I really need to get my card back." she replied pleadingly.
Mr. Bob was about to speak when he saw Andy approaching from behind.
"Shuu..." whispered Andy, gesturing him not to say a word.
"Hmm....." mumbled Mr. Bob as if he just lost his tongue whiles glancing over Tiara's shoulder. Tiara was gazing at him expectantly when she felt someone leaned over. She got startled and jolted aside.
"Oh my God, you startled me." she mumbled with a hand on her chest as she glanced at him bemused.
"What was that for...?" she added.
"Were you looking for this...?" he queried as he held the card in his right hand.
"Yeah.., thanks so much. I thought I had lost it forever." she muttered as she drew nearer to him for the card. She was about to reach for the card when Andy smiled smugly.
"Not so fast." he muttered, slightly lifting it up out of Tiara's reach.
"Heyyy..., what are you doing?" she mumbled.
"And what do you think I'm doing?" he queried teasingly with a smile on as he leaned closer to Tiara's face.
Her face instantly froze, quiet stunned.
"eehh..., cut it out already." she whispered, slightly pushing him away.
"What's all this about?" she questioned, a bit pissed.
"Let's say you owe me and...."
"Wait, wait, wait, did I hear you just say owe you?" she muttered with a chuckle, surprised.
"For what?" she questioned.
"First, for bumping into me and secondly, for keeping your card for you." he responded.
"Huh..?" muttered Tiara, bemused.
"Is it a pay back time or something like that?" she queried.
"Well.., you can take it anyhow you like it." he mumbled with a shrug, indifferently.
Mr. Bob stood looking on with a smile as he has never seen Andy behave that way with any lady before.
"Okay, okay." uttered Tiara with a sigh as she try to calm her nerves.
"Name your prize, I don't like owing people especially cheats like you." she added.
"How about you tell me your name first."
Tiara glanced at him for a while, not really knowing what he is heading towards then sighed.
"I'm Tiara." she muttered.
"Hmm?" he mumbled thoughtfully.
"That's a nice name." he added.
"Well, thanks but no thanks." she uttered, slightly looking away.
Andy glanced at her and chuckled, slightly shaking his head.
"I'm also called Andy." he replied.
"Well..., are we done here?"
"Not yet little one.."
"Oh my God, what did you just call me?" she grasped as she glanced at him pissed.
"Just what you heard, Tiara." he uttered teasingly.
"Just keep calm girl...,it's all for the card, it's all for the card." she mumbled to herself.
"Did you say something?" he questioned.
"No, not at all." she muttered, faking a smile on.
"Name your second price."
"Well..., for this, I have some terms and conditions attached to it."
"Some terms..? Whatever, shoot."
"Okay, here are the terms and conditions, whatever I ask, you will have to do it without complaining. Do you accept?"
Tiara stood thoughtfully for a while, glancing at his face.
"Okay, I accept."
"Good..." be muttered with a smile.
"Now the price, I would like to take you for lunch tomorrow."
"Lunch..? she exclaimed, surprised.
" No...way." she added,reaching for the card.
"Then you're not getting this." he responded, lifting the card up from her reach.
Tiara drew back glancing at him as she stared down on her watch.
"Oh no, it's getting very late." she thought to herself and glanced back at Andy.
"Okay, okay, whatever. I accept." she replied, snatching the card from him.
"I'll make sure I report you to your boss." she added, as she briskly strolled off.
Andy looked on, chuckling as he glanced at her.
"I'll wait for you here at 12pm, no lateness." he shouted after her.
*************
It was around 9pm when the door flew opened with Tiara trolling in.
"I'm home mum..." she exclaimed to her mother in the kitchen as she strolled off to her room.
"Welcome dear, eaten already?" she shouted after her.
"Yes mum..., I guess dad is with Andrew."
"Yes dear."
"Okay, goodnight mum.."
"Goodnight dear." she replied as Tiara turned the corner to her room.
Tyra was busily reading a book when Tiara walked through the door and furiously tossed her bag on the bed as she sat on the chair behind her study table.
"Who pissed you off? You only act like this when someone gets on your nerves." uttered Tyra indifferently as she slightly raised her face from her book.
"Who does he even think he is to be ordering me around?" said Tiara indignantly.
Tyra glanced at her for a while with a sigh, shaking her head as she went back to her book.
"My poor big sister..." she mumbled.
