“Miko, do you know where cafe Soluna is?”
“Yes, why?”
“I am going to meet up with my sister Rosalia.” I said.
“What!?” Miko exclaimed. There he goes again with his over the top reaction. I can’t help but not laugh at him. He looked at me, surprised by what I said.
“How did that happen? Why did you agree? Did something happen that I didn’t know about?” Miko asked, looking at me with his confused expressions.
“Silly, nothing happened. Remember the time I told you that I accidentally answered one call from her. Starting there, she kept on sending me messages and trying to contact me. Rosalia also knows that we will be heading out next week back in the city.” I said.
“But how did that happen? We never told anyone except our clients that were scheduled for a meeting.” Miko said
“I think you were forgetting that we are from the same family. Remember, she has unlimited resources to find out what I am up to.”
“Yeah, you're right. Why did she want to meet up with you?” Miko asked, and picked up the papers that I need to sign.
“I didn’t know either. She did not tell me the reason why she wants to meet up with me.”
“You have to be careful, Ray. You don’t know what she is plotting this time. Out of your two siblings, she is the one that I fear the most. You know what I mean.” Miko said, looking at me worried.
“I know, Miko. Don’t worry. I am not the same old Ray that was easily used by my siblings nor my father.” I said, and started to sign the documents that Miko gave me.
“I see, that’s good then. Do you want me to go with you when you meet up with her?” Miko said.
“It’s okay, besides we already got our hands full next week. You need to meet up with our other clients.” I said. We stayed silent and began working with the papers and other legal stuff from my businesses. It was almost noon when we finished. We were used to it already, and compared to the things we need to accomplish, what we did is not the same level of what we usually do.
“Goodness, we are done with most of the papers. We still have a lot, but don’t need to burn ourselves with work.” Miko said, stretching.
“Let’s go and eat.” I said.
“By the way, Sun is not around, right?” Miko asked.
“Yes, why?”
“About that, we need to be careful about our employees or they will find out that Sun is a ghost.” Miko reminded me.
“Don’t worry, we just need to stick with our plans, okay?” I said.
“Well, I am also thinking about what will happen next week.”
“I know, Miko. I am not forgetting that Sun will appear wherever I am, or within the range. Don’t worry, we can come up with a plan for that, and have Sun enjoy while we are out.” I said, and gave a reassuring smile to Miko.
``Let's go now.” I said.

We arrived at the kitchen and people were bustling. Most of our workers eat here during lunch. I saw Cynthia busy cooking with dishes. Most of our staffs greeted us, and offered their seat but I told them to continue and their food.
“Where is big brother Sun?” Lena asked, popping out of nowhere like a mushroom.
“Uh, he is sleeping now. Why?” I asked.
“Well, you see, Sir Ray. I want to give this to him.” Lena said, and picked up the basket full of assorted fruits.
“You can give it to him tonight. By the way, why fruits?” I asked.
“Sun looked really pale, so I think he needed more vitamins.” Lena said.
“I see. Sure, give it when he comes out later. Let’s eat now.”
“Okay, Sir.” Lena answered happily.
