"Oh that! I was on a blind date" Siya says rolling her eyes "A terrible one" she adds

"Nooooo Waaaaaay!" Blanca exclaims.

Everybody else around the table were shocked and had a laughter of amusement.

"Okay Siya, let me ask you something!" Onaro speaks "What's your favourite place?"

Siya eyes get as wide as they have ever been with a smile on her face, confirming that indeed was her who they heard about.

"How'd you know?" She asks while everybody else was laughing.

Not Carlos, he was definitely going with flow and hiding a hint of jealousy behind his smile as he focused on his plate. But more than jealousy it was anger, remembering what the guy said about her.

While he was absorbed in his thoughts. Ana fills Siya in on what they heard when they encountered the guy on the golf course.

"Well I'm glad that I was an asshole" Siya shrugs taking another bite "Oh sorry, excuse my language" she says looking at Mama and Papa Sainz.

"I'm glad too" Papa Sainz adds not making a big deal about the language "that - excuse my language - you were an asshole" he says

"Honey!" Mama Sainz exclaims

"What? Men like him don't deserve to be even looked at, let alone be set up to a blind date with!" He says wiping his mouth "Especially for a beautiful and smart woman like Siya" he adds

"Agreed. Absolutely!" Ana exclaims

"I wouldn't let anyone like that near my daughters and Siya's no less" he says leaning back onto his chair.

Onaro is back at it again holding his laughter back, receiving a sneer from Carlos that's sitting right across him.

"Who even set this date?" Sainz Sr. Asks a little mad

"Yeah, who was it?" Mama Sainz gets curios too "I didn't know that you were interested, if I knew I have a lot of highly eligible men that I can set you up with" she adds also quickly glancing over Carlos who's face was a s blank as a sheet of white paper.

"I'm not actually looking" Siya clarifies "this was a blind date disguised as business check." She adds "Was doing one of my friends a favour, and yeah this person is definitely not the one that he'd like to be acquainted with." She shrugs.

"I don't want to step out of my boundary but I'll say this because we all consider you family. It's not good to go out on dates with people like them!" Sainz Sr. Adds being protective, and Onaro looks at Carlos again earning a glare from him.

"I understand Mr. Sainz. We didn't really expect this guy to be SO bad. I assure you I won't go on another blind date unless it's approved by you two!" She says showing her hands towards Mama and Papa Sainz.

"What about us!?" Ana exclaims referring to her and Blanca

"Do you really think I would even consider going on a date without telling you?" She asks back

"You know you'll be in trouble." Ana threatens her jokingly.

"Yes ma'am!" Siya says finishing her food "Aaagghh! This was nice. Why don't you guys just stay back tonight?" She says like a kid trying to make her favourite people stay back, making some of them chuckle.

"Why don't you come to our place tomorrow? I'll be free in the evening." Ana invites her instead.

"Yes Siya. I would have loved to stay if not for the trip that me and Sr. will be going to. But should come by tomorrow and spend the night. Have your little girls night." She says spinning her fork.
