Frightened about the mysterious man, Veronica related the story to her family. They were having dinner when she told it to them. At first they don't believed Veronica until she had shown the business card.
When Veronica's husband saw the card, George could only muttered, " that guy is probably a mystery shopper."
Veronica: Mystery shopper!? In my bookstore? Don't you think he should visit grocery stores or supermarkets and department stores?
One of the triplets grabbed the business card from her Dad, "Yikkess!" as she shrieked when she reads what's on the card.
"What's on the card? What it says?" Ceejay asked Teejay.
"Oh nothing much! The name says it all I think, " recounted Teejay.
Ceejay thought there is something more to it that he asked the business card to see it for himself. When he had his turn to read the name he could only wonder why his name is weird.
Firelli one of the triplets finally got hold of the business card and blurted, " Is he from Greece?" He must be Greek! His mother named him after a Greek mythological character?
Probably is for his name is a well distinguished very prominent name. Who wont recognize Zeus? Do you know Zeus?
Yes the man is named after the Olympian god Zeus! The mysterious man is named after Zeus. He is Dr. Zeus Ulysses - with a Phd. Doctor of Philosophy and Theology.
The kids asked their Mom to describe the man. Veronica could only remember him as a man who resembles that of the leading actor in "Lawrence of Arabia."
"That guy?"" You mean Omar Shariff?" Firelli grinned with much enthusiasm then laughed and told his Mom that there's probably a mix of culture in her story.
Well what's wrong with a Greek name and an Arabic face? Only in movies! Only in the silver screen you can mix names and blend them into another distinct culture and ethnic background. It can happen. That's what multicultural diversity is. You have a Filipina in a movie representing a Chinese community because that Filipina looks more like Chinese when it comes to facial feature and skin color. Or a Filipina that looks like a Japanese. Almost anything can happen.
Veronica also informed them, "By the way, the mysterious man said he's from the Vatican in Rome!"
