“Davin Seet! I don’t care. I want the Northern Suburbs development project. If you don’t agree to it, I won’t let you take the kid home.”

With that said, she looked at Evan and continued, “I’m not satisfied with this apology. Meet with me only when he manages to locate his sincerity somewhere in his soul!”

Having said that, she stormed back into the house.

“Hey! Sheep, where are your manners? Did you just walk away? Aren’t you supposed to invite us in for a drink?”

Neither Kyle nor Juan knew about the incident with the name, so they went to ask Davin about it.

Juan queried, “Uncle Davin, why did you call her Sheep?”

At that question, Davin could not help but laugh. He pulled Juan closer and replied, “Let me tell you a story…”

With a smirk, Davin said, “Once upon a time, Davin and Sheila went to the same kindergarten. One day, the teacher said she would reward star stickers to those who finished their works quickly. To get her star stickers, Sheila missed out on a stroke in her family name and drew a sheep in place of her given name. When the teacher gave them back their works, she was confounded by the name. She asked, ‘Who is Sheep?’ And that was how Sheep became Sheila’s name.”

When he was done with his story, he gazed at Kyle and Juan in a serious manner. “So the moral of the story is, don’t ever misspell your name or use short forms in place of your full name. Got it?”
