TAN JA NIN: May I ask Lee Jin Ho's birthday as well?

LU JIAOSHENG: Why don't you ask him instead? 

TAN JA NIN: He might be busy. You're his bestfriend so I'm sure you know this little details about him. 

She suddenly felt guilty because she didn't know Lee Jin Ho's birthday. What kind of girlfriend she is? She knew a tiny bit of information about him. 

LU JIAOSHENG: Do you think I'm not busy? 

Her mouth twitched. This guy was giving her a hardtime. It was just his birthday anyway. 

TAN JA NIN: Please can you give it to me now. I'm booking our flights now, it's his birthday the only missing information.

LU JIAOSHENG: It's 10/28/1994.

TAN JA NIN: Thanks.

So his birthday was just a week apart to Yan Mor Tee's birthday? So she was a two months older than him. It's August now and her birthday is coming two weekd from today. She never planned anything on her birthday. She just wanted to have dinner with her family and with Lee Jin Ho as well. 

Two weeks from now, she will be turning 27 years old and on the right age to settle down. Dei Si will be turning 27 next month and she was already married. Ho Min Lin will be turning 27 too on November and will be getting married before end of this year too. 

So how about her? She smiled. Not in the near future. She has just started her s...o...b..z career and marriage was really out of her mind right now. That's why she was careful not to get pregnant and would always ask Lee Jin Ho to use protection everytime they made love. She was glad that Lee Jin Ho was supportive to her on that aspect. 

She smiled when finished booking all their flights and accomodation. Mission accomplished. 

.....

Sat.u.r.day, 5:00 AM. 

Ho Min Lin saw Tan Ji Nan standing near the departure gate. She just alighted from their family car together with her parents. Their driver has a.s.sisted them to unload all their luggages from the trunk. Tan Ji Nan saw them and immediately went over to them. He kissed Ho Min Lin on the lips and that made Ho Min Lin blushed.

How dare he kissed her on the lips in front of her folks. She was so embarra.s.sed. But when she looked at her parents it seems that they didn't mind Tan Ji Nan way of greeting to her. In fact, both of them were smiling at Tan Ji Nan. 

"How are you, Uncle, Auntie?" He asked while he politely took Madam Ho small luggage and helped her put them on his cart after he helped Ho Min Lin with her luggage. 

"We're doing good. We're really excited on this vacation because finally I will be able to relax from the hustle and bustle of the city." Master Ho answered. He never put his luggage on the cart and just pulled it as they walked inside the airport. 

"Yes, we're going to enjoy the beautiful sceneries together" Tan Ji Nan said and looked at Madam Ho. "Auntie, I've heard, you are a swimmer and a medalist during your early years?"  

"Yes, I was sent before for a Summer Olympic delegation and won a bronze." Madam Ho answered with a big smile. 

Ho Min Lin looked at her boyfriend and was so proud because this boyfriend of hers really know how to converse with people. 

"I believe Min Lin got her great skills on swimming from you. She was one of the best swimmer in our cla.s.s when we were in HighSchool." Tan Ji Nan said as he looked at Ho Min Lin and saw her blus.h.i.+ng face.

"Right. It just that Min Lin did not push it to the National team" said Madam Ho. 

"So what are we going to arrive in the Philippines?" Master Ho asked.

"Will be there before lunch, then we'll take another private plane ride in the afternoon to bring us the island." Tan Ji Nan answered as he started lining up to the queue. 

Master Ho nodded. "Your holding the copy of our tickets right, Min Lin?" 

"Yes Dad!" She said and gave her parents a copy. They managed to pa.s.s the immigration smoothly at the departure area. 

....

At the Airport, around 7AM. 

Tan Ja Nin was the first one to arrive together with her parents from their group. They went inside the airport and had planned to just wait for the rest at the lounge area. She had received a message from Tan Ji Nan that they have already boarded the plane and was about to take off so she knew that they can freely move around the airport without worrying that Ho Min Lin will caught them. She sat comfortably at the lounge area then took her phone to send a message to Song Dei Si. 

TAN JA NIN: We're here at the lounge area. 

SONG DEI SI: Noted. We've just pa.s.sed through the immigration area saw Lu Jiaosheng and Lee Jin Ho at the queue earlier. Will be there soon.

TAN JA NIN: See you. 

"Where are your friends?" Madam Tan asked Tan Ja Nin.

"Their on their way here." Tan Ja Nin answered. 

Madam Tan looked at Master Tan. "Hubby, as you promised, you will act civil in front of Yan Mor Tee and Song Dei Si."

"Uhm" Master Tan said without looking at his wife. He took a business magazine and started reading the pages. 

A moment later, Tan Ja Nin saw Lee Jin Ho from the crowd. She was stunned to realize that she could easily spot Lee Jin Ho from the crowd. Standing next to him was Yan Mor Tee.

She dialled Song Dei Si's number. 

"We're sitting here at the lounge. I can already see you from here." She said. 

Song Dei Si looked around and saw Tan Ja Nin waving at them. "Okay, there you go." She said and hang up the phone. She went to Tan Ja Nin's direction and the three men followed her. 

Song Dei Si greeted Tan Ja Nin's parents and quite surprised when she received a nod from them. Yan Mor Tee also greeted them and received a response too. Tan Ja Nin could be any prouder for the att.i.tude that her parents has shown to Song Dei Si and Yan Mor Tee. 

She looked at Lee Jin Ho and Lu Jiaosheng and introduced them to her parents. 

"Mom, Dad, meet our other two friends, Lu Jiaosheng..." 

Lu Joaisheng greeted her parents and offer them a handshake. 

"And this is Lee Jin Ho..." 

Lee Jin Ho gave a big and warm smile to Tan Ja Nin parents. 

Madam Tan and Master Tan could not help gave a good look at Lee Jin Ho. 

So this is the Lee Jin Ho that Tan Ja Nin called when she regained her consciousness in the hospital. 

Master Tan and Madam Yan sized him up and it gave Lee Jin Ho a chilly feeling. 

"So you're Lee Jin Ho..." Madam Tan said. 

Lee Jin Ho was a bit stunned because it seems that Tan Ja Nin's parents was already familiar with him. He was sure that this was the first time that he met them. 

Tan Ja Nin fake a cough. 

"Ja Nin mentioned that she will be endorsing your company's new product" Madam Tan said. Lee Jin Ho nodded and was glad because it seems that they were already aware of Tan Ja Nin's plan of entering s...o...b..siness. 

"Thank you for the help that your extending to our precious daughter." 

"Do not mention it Madam Tan." Lee Jin Ho said. "Your daughter deserves it!"

"Quit the formality. You can call me Auntie given that you are our children's friend." Said Madam Tan.

Lee Jin Ho smiled when a thought came through his mind. He looked at Tan Ja Nin mischievously. "Okay, Auntie!" He glanced back at Madam Tan and smiled at her. 

Madam Tan looked at Lee Jin Ho and Lu Jiaosheng switchingly and uttered "You have a bunch of goodlooking friends!" She said to Tan Ja Nin. 

Tan Ja Nin face blushed. 

Lu Jiaosheng laughed heartily. "You have a good pair of eyes, Auntie!" 

"Of course! I know when to spot one." Madam Tan said giggling and looked at her husband. "My husband was also goodlooking back then when I first mer him.

Master Tan frowned "So I'm not goodlooking now?

Madam Tan giggled "You still are. Where else would Ji Nan got his good looks if it's not from you." 

Master Tan smiled "Ja Nin got your beautiful features too." 

"Of course. A face of a celebrity!" Madam Tan said with a smug on her face. 

Tan Ja Nin covered her face due to embarra.s.sment. Why was her mother was so shameless?

Good thing, she never got this from her!
