"Chantal, idagdag mo 'to sa donation sa orphanage. Ibukod mo yung 3 billion para sa fundraising tapos ikaw na bahala maghati sa mga natira basta it's all for this month's biggest project," Marivic, the executive secretary put an uncountable envelopes on my table, while I'm just eyeing her every actions."Send me the complete details on my email and I'll forward it to Sir rightaway."

I blinked and nodded. She tapped my shoulder and greeted us good morning before the pointing sound of her effeminate heels slowly fed our ears in a fadeaway stunt.

Meaningful sigh of Ria is what I've heard next kaya lumingon ako sa kaniya. Nagtataka habang nag-uumpisa nang buksan ang umabot na sa dibdib kong patas ng mga envelope. Nasa pinakaunahang bahagi ng pang-unang hilera ng mga cubicle ang pwesto ko, while Ria is beside me.

It's not really a coincidential why we always by each other's side, ayaw niya lang talagang magkahiwalay kami ng upuan, gusto palagi kaming magkatabi para may kadaldalan siya. I'm totally okay with it since gawain na niya iyan mula pa noong college at dala hanggang dito sa trabaho.

Friendship goals raw.

"I truly hate that woman." Ria scoffed, pansamantalang tumigil sa pagclick sa mouse sa desktop niya para lamang sabihin iyon.

Natatawa kong tiningnan ang mga amount sa first printed paper na kinuha ko at binuksan ang excel bago t-in-ype iyon doon.

"Why you hate Marivic so much?" I adjusted the lines so that the words can fit properly.

From the side of my eyes, I saw how she rolled hers.

"Hindi ko alam kung manhid na santa ka ba o nagmamanhid-manhidan na santasantita. Can't you notice? Simula noong naging executive secretary siya, ang daming kumakalat na chismis tungkol sa kumpanya and she's so bossy for shit's sake! Mas bossy pa siya kay Sir, mygod girl!" paghihisterical niya.

"Shhh. Ingay mo naman, Ria. Magbulungan nalang kayo ni Chantal riyan." Saway bigla ni Doria na nasa likuran namin.

Humarap sa kaniya ang kaibigan ko."Inggit ka, bhe? E 'di makipagchikahan ka rin d'yan sa katabi mong nerd." She rolled her eyes at Doria who's cheeks were being flushed now.

Samantalang hindi ko alam kung matatawa ako o mapapailing sa ginagawang pambabara na naman nitong si Ria. Kaya bahagya kong hinila ang ponytail niya dahilan para mapangiwi siya at tigilan na sina Dori sa likod.

"Sorry, ah? Sige continue lang kayo." I apologized.

Doria nodded, cheeks still red.

Ang tinutukoy ni Ria na nerd na katabi nito ay si Ymson, with his thick eyeglasses and pale skinny built ay hindi nga malayong sabihan siyang nerd or mapagkamalan na nerd. I think he's that vulnerable at kapag tinitigan mo nang matagal ay tila makahiyang tumitiklop kaagad.

Gaya nalang ngayon, nginitian ko siya nang magtama ang paningin namin. As usual, umiwas siya ng tingin habang ang pisngi at tenga'y namumula. I shrugged and looked at Ria instead. Itinago ko ang ngiti nang makitang nakasimangot parin ang kaibigan.

"Pakielamerang frog." She whispered kaya pinandilatan ko ng mata, inirapan niya lang ako.

I began to type again on my desktop but with the uncontrollable smile this time.

"I think hindi si Marivic ang pinakahate mo rito." I blowed an air inside my cheeks and she turned to me as fastly as what I expected.

"At ano namang ibig mong sabihin?" I can't see her reaction because I'm focused on my screen but I know she's already raising her new-shaved eyebrows.
