Waiting for the laptop to get to him felt like an eternity. Leo Lee just wanted to go get it himself but didn't want to leave his guest unattended. Ten minutes had past and where not coming back, just like Vanessa. A box was blocking Bambi's foot, not giving her much space to move.
Bambi's foot felt numb, she gave her side leg a punch! Leo Lee gave her a awkward smile. Not knowing how to go about the situation Bambi stood up. "Mr. Lee.... how about we move this boxes to....that table?" Bambi used her lips to point to her right. This reminded Leo Lee how some Filipinos use their lips to point, he found it rather cute on Bambi. Her soft pink lips look like silk. It took Leo Lee a few seconds to react. "Yes. Let me take this out of your way."
Leo Lee got two boxes at a time. Bambi put her box too, it was only one. Leo Lee was done, when Bambi reach for her second box. He then took it from her, putting it with the rest of the boxes. The office look much better and of course with more room. Sitting down again, Bambi felt like small talk would be okay. "Mr. Lee, how did the JU2000 (commercial juice make) turn out? Was it a success?" regretting her question now. Why did she said that... her father's company was making profits from it's sales by now. Worring that Leo Lee was going to think that she was brainless. To her surprise he looked rather happy. "Yes. Miss Verba, it all work out after I reprogram the settings. I couldn't understand why the JU2000 was overheating, until I went to see for myself. The employees who were operating the Juice Maker kept hitting the start botton over and over. Thinking that it would make the machine go faster. This made the machine to make a double order. I reset the start botton to only take one order at a time." said Leo Lee proudly.
Another five minutes pass, no laptop. This was a crime. Leo Lee stood up, when Vanessa came with the laptop.... his face read murder. Vanessa giggle a "Sorry" then put the laptop on the coffee table. Leo Lee turn his laptop on "Vanessa can you please bring Miss. Bambi some water." Putting in his passwords, he heard "Umm....like.....where is it??" Leo Lee gave that girl a look of disbelief. "It's in the next room in the refrigerator." Waiting for her to get it for their guest. "Oh we don't have any more water. I had the last bottle yesterday." Vanessa giggle another "Sorry" this made Leo Lee cross his arms, "Please go NOW to the store and bring a case of bottle waters. Thank you." Seeing this, Bambi was going to say not to worry about the water. But Vanessa had left already.
Since it was past lunch time most of the employees in the company left to go out for lunch. Except for two. Looking at each other, the cousins kept on working. They look over to see Vanessa walking out the office, she looked lost. Pedro called her over "Yo! Where yo going??" Vanessa, walked over "Mr. Lee sent me to get water, am not his secretary to be doing this!" she was very unhappy. Juan was about to say that she sucked at her job. Good thing Pedro cut in, just in time "Am sure he just needs your help to pick out a good quality water, for the CEO's daughter." This made Vanessa gasp "What? She's Mr. Verba daughter!!" Both cousins nodded.
How embarrassing!! Vanessa thought that Bambi was just some regular appointment for Mr. Leo Lee. If she had known, she would of had made a lot more effort....in looking much better. Vanessa was thinking of going home to change into a black business suit. If she did, she wouldn't have to go to the store. At her home she had water imported from Hawaii that she could just bring back to work. She soon called for car to pick her up.
Patricia or known as Patty came over with a new drill set. "Mr.Sanchez (Juan), take this.... the old ones can't be fix. This set is cordless." She handed it to Juan who was very excited to try them out. "Thank you Patty your the best!" Juan yelled out as Patty headed to the front of the building. She then sat in the receptionist desk and started to work. As Leo Lee's secretary she did very good work. Even doing most of Vanessa's work, who was the current project manager. Since Vanessa never told anyone that Bambi was visiting today it was a surprise!
In the office with the door closed Leo Lee and Bambi started their meeting. Bambi went straight to the point and she handed Leo Lee a new contract. Bambi notice that Leo Lee's soft smile disappeared.
