"Am I late for dinner?" Dani heard someone said from behind

"James" Girlie exclaimed "Yes you are late because you are not invited in this dinner. You are supposed to be in your photoshoot, what are you doing here?"

"I want some sushi" James replied then sat on the chair besides Dani fronting Girlie "Hello Dani. How are you?" smiling he greeted Dani

"Hello Sir James, I'm fine sir, thank you for asking" Dani greeted back with a soft smile, for a fews seconds she literally froze but she was able to regain composure quickly and went back on eating her ramen.

"Maintain professionalism Daniella, they are your clients" she repeatedly told herself "Pero susme naman, ang bango bango naman ng lalaking ito. Sobrang kinis pa. Ang lakas makapanginig ng buong pagkatao. Jusko ang lips, malamang masarap humalik 'to"

But for James it is different, he was surprised with the cold treatment he got from Dani. Yes there was a smile in her greetings but it was not sweet as what he expected it to be. He doesn't know na malayo na ang nararating ni Dani sa pagpapantasya sa kanya.

"Ano talaga ang ginagawa mo dito? Baka hanapin ka nila Mark. I was just planning to take out some sushi for you" Girlie nags while looking at James who did not break his stare to Dani.

"Relax Tita. There was a technical problem in the set so they decided to have an early dinner while the technical personnel resolves the problem. I don't like the food they serve so I excuse myself, sabi ko sabayan na lang kita sa dinner" James explained

"And how did you know that I am here in Toki?" Girlie asked

"Ikaw pa, kapag nandito ka within sa BGC isa lang naman ang gusto mong restaurant" James replied "Patapos na ba kayo? Siguro take out na nga natin yung food ko Tita" he suggested

"Yes we are almost done, pero dito ka na kumain, hintayin ka na lang namin" Girlie replied. "Oppss, okay lang ba Dani?"

"No problem po Tita" Dani replied smiling while James was stunned when he hear her addressing Girlie as Tita but he decided to be mum about it. "Saan ka ba umuuwi iha?" Girlie asked

"Sa Bulacan po pag weekend, dun po talaga ako nakatira. But, I have a condo in Pasig, dun po ako umuuwi pag weekdays" Dani replied

"Naku sorry, mas malapit ka na sana from here" Girlie said.

"Why?" James confusedly asked

"Color coding kasi sya today, she left her car sa office, babalikan na lang nya after dinner, sayang it will be better sana via C5 opportunity to avoid EDSA"

"Then ask Eric to get her car in Makati, while we are having dinner" James suggested and started eating the food he just ordered

"That was brilliant James" Girlie exclaimed "What do you think Daniella?" Girlie asked Dani

"That would be nice Tita, but I still need to get some of my stuff in the office so I really need to go back" Danie replied

"Maybe Eric can drop us off at the location after this, and then he can take Dani back to her office in Makati" James suggested

"Oh, no need for that sir James, I can book an uber anytime. I'll be fine" Dani confidently said

James shrugs off his shoulder "It's no big deal" he said and continued eating.

While consuming his food Girlie received a call from James' TVC shoot informing them that James needs to go back in the location immediately. They quickly billed-out. Girlie's van was already waiting outside the restaurant. She and James hopped in while Dani bids her goodbye.
