"You really outdid yourself in there" Alex and Patricia clapped.
"We need to drink to this" Patrica yelled, "But it's good they defended little Gabriel, or he would still be bullied"
"I know what they did was wrong but at least now that boy or anyone else won't hurt Gaby again" Alex smiled.
Tatiana kissed her son's head, "Am sorry baby, I didn't know you were hurt at school"
"fine now," he said.
"Am glad and thank you for forgiving that little boy. It was a good thing to do" she said.
He nodded, "then can I get a hug"
"Yes you can"she hugged him filling his face with kisses. His little giggles filled the car.
"So your really leaving them there?" Alec asked.
"Yes, even if they were defending him, what they did was wrong and did you see them still fighting? Let them fight it out and maybe when they come out they will be changed me" she said.
"And also agreed on a name to call you " laughed Patricia.
"Your drunk Patricia, put your seat belt on," Tatiana said.
"But what you said in there was really good, this business thing really brought out someone else in you. The old Tatiana would not say all that" Patrica said putting on her seat belt.
"I don't even remember half of what I said, the alcohol did most of the talking" she laughed.
Alex and Patricia laughed.

The next day she woke up early to go bail out Jack and Steve then drove to work without saying anything to them.
"We have to apologize to her, she seems pissed," Steve said.
"Yeah, we do".
....
Tatiana was at the office when a bouquet arrived for her, it was from Steve. Apologize for what happened. She didn't call or text him to say thank you so another one and another kept coming until her office and the corridor to it was filled with them.
Coming out of a meeting she almost stumbled over one.
"Okay that's enough, call and tell him I received the flowers," she said to her secretary.
"How is it going there, I sent you in there to help me bring him down not waste my time," Tatiana said on her phone.
"Am almost there, boss. very soon you will have your revenge on him" the other said.
"Okay keep me posted and don't let yourself get caught," she said.
"Am super careful Boss, don't worry bye-bye?" she said.
Tatiana hung up with a smile on her face.
"Soon you will pay for what you did"
