Falling in Love in London

Chapter 4

Chapter 4

What I'm doing right now was satisfying. At least for me.

Dahil first week ko pa lang naman, I was given a handful of paper works na sa tingin ko ay hindi naman mahirap. I just need to be mindful sa mga wrong spellings and number because that's the crucial things I need to look out and if I made a mistake, pwede kong ulitin ang lahat ng sheet o kaya naman I would be called out for doing this little mistake, but a big deal for an intern like me.

Miss Sienna was kind enough to guide on other things na hindi ako familiar. She even told me na sobrang swerte ko raw for having Sir Macek as my mentor. His time is precious ika nga tapos ilalaan niya pa iyong iba niyang oras sa akin when other people could do it, but then he insisted kaya choosy pa ba ako?

I'm in London, in my dream country tapos blessing pa itong mga magagandang nangyayari sa akin. I feel like umaayon ang lahat sa tamang lugar. Siguro tama nga sila na naaayon sa tamang panahon ang lahat.

And I couldn't ask for more, being in London was already enough for me.

"Miss Sienna, can I go to the pantry? I'm just going to grab some snacks."

Agad naman niya akong tinanguan. Tumunog naman ang kanyang telephone kaya agad niya iyong sinagot at nawala na sa akin ang atensyon niya. Tumayo naman ako sa kinauupuan ko at tumungo sa pantry.

When I got there, Arden and Berk was already there kaya agad naman nila akong tinawag. They were so funny and amazed that I got have lunch with the CEO and for everyone, that's a kind of a big deal.

"You should look after your back," Arden said. Napakunot naman ang noo ko. "There are some people who would look at in a bad way even if you're just an intern."

"I agree," Berk said. "People weren't what you they are. Everyone wanted to be on the top—obviously we do, but because we love what we're doing now, it's enough for now... but yeah, why did he ask you out on a lunch?"

"It wasn't personal," sagot ko saka tumungo sa table kung nasaan ang mga snacks. There were chips and cookies. I grabbed a small plate then put nachos in it then poured some cheese on it. HInarap ko naman silang dalawa saka ako umupo sa pagitan nila. "He just wanted to get to know me. My expectations, who am I, and where I came from. Basically, he just wanted to know me and that's all. People shouldn't make a fuss about that."

"You can't be sure," Arden smirked. "And hey! Berkeley told me you guys went together in the office because you lived in the same building!"

"Not really the same building," Berk corrected. "Same area, Arden. Area."

"That's the same thing," she rolled her eyes. "So, how was your first date, guys?"

Napakunot-noo naman ako sa sinabi niya at bahagyang natawa. Siniko rin naman siya ni Berkeley dahil sa sinabi nito.

"We didn't had a date," paliwanag ko pa. Kumagar naman ako sa nachos. I know I shouldn't be explaining about it pero gusto ko lang din naman linawin. "We just had a dinner. It wasn't a date."

"Arden was just making a story out of it," Berk laughed. "But how was Sir Connagh, KC?"

"He's nice, funny, and a person full of wisdom. I do believe that I'll be able to learn a lot of things from him. Just from our conversation earlier, I think I'm going to expect that."

"Oh, that's why you smiled so differently, KC," komento ni Arden sabay tawa.

My face scrunched when she said that. Umiling na lang din naman ako. "I don't know what you're thinking about it, but I believe there's nothing wrong with that."
