Juana wiped her hands on her apron and went to greet the guest in her usual big warm hug.
"Hi, mija. You're too busy these days. You left without notice." Juana said, enclosing Maria in her arms.
"Yeah, it's an emergency that I have to leave last time." Maria said as they pulled off from each other.
"No worries. You're here and now that boy is not here." Juana said and turned to Althea this time. "Who do we got here?"
"Thea," Althea answered shortly and once again felt a little awkward when Juana also welcomed her in the same manner as Maria.
"I think she's Xenon's girlfriend, Juana." Kalila added giddily.
"Are you? That kid have a good eyes, I see." Juana nodded appreciatively at Althea. "I apologized in behalf of those boys who left their girlfriends in my care."
"It's no worries. I think both of them will be coming home." Kalila clapped her hands enthusiastically .
