Earlier in Sy International, around 1:45 in the afternoon.
Rawlf was trying his best to finish his paperworks sooner because he wanted to go back home to Veronica.
Although he's not naïve that she was just having her monthly cycle and her system was having its rest, according to his private doctor he called home last night while Veronica was asleep, yet still,he couldn't help but get worried.
He was almost finished when Secretary Ryan suddenly barged in, for the record, it was the second time since his mother's unexpected arrival last time.
"Pres! President!!" Came the instant hurried voice of the pale faced secretary.
Rawlf just remained seated and looked at his panicking secretary while his left eyebrow raised as if to ask him to continue.
'Has this secretary been taking a lot of caffeine lately that he became a walking nervous system?' Rawlf thought.
"In...in in the lobby."
"Stop with your stuttering. And give me the news or information now", Rawlf said strictly.
This finally made Secretary Ryan realize his fault and finally calmed down and slowly he started. "The receptionist called saying that there's two children, who looked a lot like you, despite
their unique hair colour, around the age of four, causing chaos in the lobby. They were claiming to be your children!" Secretary burst out all the information, this time, more clearly.
Despite the calmness in his tone, Secretary Ryan's face is so indescribable that he came to realize the 'looked a lot like the President' information from the receptionist.
This is trouble ah!! What will be the reaction of the lady boss if everything is true and that the President fathered children on another woman! President will surely be torn in between!
Secretary Ryan didn't manage to react on time when the President rushed past him to his private elevator.
True, he was dumbfounded but the possibility of his cubs, indeed in the lobby and causing chaos made Rawlf want to check and be sure of it!!
'But what chaos?! Who would dare say that his cubs cause chaos?! This is his own private corporation and the cubs are very free to cause chaos as long as they feel it.' Rawlf thought, controlling the wide grin that was about to fill his face. He must check it first himself before letting his expectation drift away.
However, why are they here!? They were supposed to be still in Country R and Veronica and him were bound to visit them sooner!
Did Veronica know or maybe, she was responsible for this to surprise him?!
Rawlf shook all those thoughts when the elevator stopped to the lobby of the building. When it opened, he went out right away and walked faster than the necessary speed as he looked over the receiving area of the lobby.
Rawlf who was very excited earlier, stopped on his track as he saw, there on the table of the reception area, was a very cute little girl, happily talking to the receptionist and to some 'free' people and staff of the Sy International.
The look on the cute little girl's face was so animated, so lively, so cheerful, ah so beautiful!, that Rawlf just stayed rooted on the ground and looked over the girl.
