Pathway to Success (Chasing Series #1)

Chapter 24

"Like I didn't love him at all," 

Napasinghap ako kakagising ko palang pero ganito na ako mag-isip? This should not affect me at all. Hindi ko naman maitatanggi sa sarili ko na sa halos higit na sampung taon na lumipas ay hindi ko siya inisip. 

"I moved on, for better"

I fixed my self and wore a white sleeveless with a black coat on top with it's matching black trousers. I drove to our company this morning. 

I walked immediately in the elevator. "Mag focus ka lang sa work." I said to my mind.

When the door of the elevator is going to shut close. I see a man walking on towards me. I murmured out of nothing "Malas..." 

Callix walk besides me like he didn't see me. "Naka move on na ako 'no" I whispered true a small voice. 

Bakit laging nagkakataon na kami lagi ang tao sa elevator?! Yung tipong sobrang tahimik tapos kami lang dalawa 'yung tao nakakaasar. 

I heard small laughes on him kaya I tilted my head over him. "What?" masungit kong tanong.

"Nothing miss" he grinned. 

"I'm an architect and not a miss please" I rolled my eyes kating-kati na akong makarating sa 6th floor of this damn elevator.

"You didn't change at all" I heard him speak silently. Hindi ko na lang siya pinansin at pinagmasdan siya ng palihim. I wonder why he is here, wala namang meeting. 

I don't know dapat hindi ko na siya pinapakielaman he have is own life. He didn't care about me at all. Pinagmasdan ko ang kaniyang suot he is wearing his white long sleeve sinundan ng mga mata ko pataas sa kaniyang braso nakatupi ang mga 'yon. 

Nakita ko ang pagbabago sa kaniyang mukha. Maturity made him look manlier, the vein in his arm made him look tougher, his jaw made him look stronger, and his little bit hair made him look different. Super different what we was used to looked like in the past. 

I ignored him ng bumukas na rin ang elevator. I feel we stucked there like an hour dahil sa bagal ng mga pangyayari. I walked and made a fierce look.

I went straight to my office and laid my things especially my bag on the table. I arrived early so I have time to go to the CEO which is my dad. He became more popular because of being a business man. Our company is the leading company in the Philippines today.

I pressed the elevator in to the 20th floor habang nag hihintay. I overthink of nothing that has no even sense after all this years. I just made a wrong decision? Mali ba 'yung ginawa kong pananakit sa kanya?

He's surely have a girlfriend or a damn wife. He's 30 na and gosh I'm really 29 na? I think I'm getting older with no husband for life. I sheepishly admit it to my self. 

Tinambol ang dibdib ko sa mga iniisip. I tried to look like na wala lang ang lahat pero sa kaloob looban ko ay nag huhuramentado na. Ngayon ko na lang ulit siya nakita.

Pag kadating sa pinaka taas ng building ng D.A.C which means David Arthur Company. Which is dad's name. After more years pa ako na ang sasalo ng kompaniyang ito. Pagkalipas ng dalawang taon na pag ta-trabaho sa Españya bilang isang architect ay bumalik ako dito sa Philippines for good. 

I've been a local architect na dito napag desisyonan ko na iyon at mag aaral din ako ng business aside from being an architect. Wala na ata akong balak mag asawa e.

I knocked on the wooden door. Suminghap ako "Dad?" 

"Come in" he said in a small voice.

Pumasok ako sa loob at nakita siyang nag titipa sa laptop niya umangat ang tingin niya sa'kin at hindi ko inaasahan na mag sasalita siya.
