Chapter 13

Scarlett

Every employee we crossed smiled at her. I can say that Yve is well respected in this building. I can't argue she might be one of the owner of this company.

Naglakad kami ng ilang beses hanggang sa sumakay kami sa elevator.

"Anong floor po kayo Ms. Yve?" Tanong ng babaeng nag ooperate sa elevator.

"15th floor please." She requested and the girl nodded.

"I'm sure Ezekiel will be so much proud about me. Sobra sobra ka pa sa secretarial work Scarlett. Naranasan mo ng magpa takbo ng company." She stated. I bit my lips.

She's right, I once own a company. Ferrer's company. Funny what happened now to me.

"Ezekiel ang pangalan ng boss ko?" I asked. She nodded.

"Yes, He's Ezekiel Alonso." She replied at natahimik na ako. I silently caress my tummy hoping it will behave accordingly. Medyo sensitive pa naman ang pang-amoy ko these past few weeks.

"15th floor, Ms. Yve." Saad ng babae. Agad na ngumiti si Yve at hinawakan ako sa kamay.

"Hand me your requirements, Scarlett. Ako na magbibigay kay Ezekiel." She said and I hand it to her.

"Kindly wait here. Ako na bahalang kumausap sa  kanila." She said.

Tumango ako at hinayaan itong mawala sa paningin ko. I'm so happy that now I have secure jobs. Hindi madali maging sekretarya, I once had a secretary and if heavy ang job ng CEO, heavy din sa kanila. Now I know why sometimes I caught my secretary taking a sleep. Iniisip ko palang kung ano ang mga gagawin ko inaantok na ako.

Nang maalala ko ang sky flakes na nasa bulsa ko agad ko itong nilabas.

"At last I can peacefully eat."



Ezekiel

"Wala ng hiring ng secretarial position Ezekiel." Kumunot ang noo ko ng pumasok bigla bigla si Yve.

"Why?" Baling ni Ivan. Umalis na si papa kasabay ng pag-alis kanina ni Yve. Hindi ko maintindihan minsan ang utak ni Yve, alam kong nabuhay siya sa yaman pero minsan she's acting too much.

"Someone saved me from a snatcher. Fortunately she's looking for a job and she fits so well. Naalala mo ang mga Ferrer? She was once a CEO there." Saad nito na ikinakunot ng noo ko. In the past one month nag-aral ako kung paano pamunuan ang kompanyang meron si papa. Madali ko namang nakuha 'yon lalo't laging naka-agapay si Yve saakin.

"Please Ezekiel? I owe her my life and bag. She's too much for this job na nga e. Tanggapin mo na, para saakin?" She requested and pout her lips. Napailing ako at lumingon kay Ivan.

"Kunin mo na, Ferrer daw." Saad nito na agad kong kinabuntong hininga.

"Fine." I said with finality at agad na tumili ang kapatid ko.

"Thanks Seby! Anyways, here's her resume, application letter and other requirements. Papapasukin ko na ba?" Tanong nito pero bago ko ito sinagot ay kinuha ko muna ang mga dokomentong hawak ibinigay nito.

Una kong binuklat ang resume nito at laking gulat ko ng makita ang kauna-unahang babaeng nanakit saakin.

Pakiramdam ko'y bumalik ang lahat ng poot at sakit na naipon sa puso ko.

Agad na dumilim ang aking paningin kaya't napahawak ako sa sindito ko.

What is she doing here? Alam niya kayang ako si Sebastian na pina-ibig niya pero iniwan niyang luhaan?

"Ezekiel?"

"What's wrong?" Ivan asked.

Umiling ako at tumingin kay Yve.

"You really want her to be my secretary?" I ask with my calm voice.

"Of course brother! She saved me. Isa pa, I told her already na hired na siya. Huwag mo naman akong ipahiya. Please? " She said at nag puppy eyes pa.

Pinasa ko kay Ivan ang resume ni Scarlett at maging ito ay nabigla.

"This is fvcking impossible. Ang liit naman yata ng mundo." He said that I agreed.

Ang liit naman yata ng mundo para saatin Scarlett?

Scarlett

Ilang minuto pa akong naghintay sa labas hanggang sa iniluwa ng pinto si Yve.

"Congratulations Scarlett! You're hired!" She excitedly said. I carried my tummy and smile.

"Wow, thank you Yve! This is a very big help for me and my baby." I said, hindi ko na itinago ito sa kaniya.

Her eyes lowered on my tummy.

"You're pregnant?" She asked with disbelief. I nodded.

"Yup."

"But how? I thought you and Jax Ferrer broke up already?" Natawa ako sa sinabi nito.

"Oh I'm sorry about that." Na realize niya siguro na masyado siyang nanghimasok. I shake my head.

She doesn't need to say sorry. It's fine. I moved on already.

"Hindi si Jax ang ama ng baby ko. Someone who's very simple pero hindi kami pwede. I left him...hanging." I said. Tumango ito at hinaplos ang tiyan ko.

"You don't look pregnant at the moment. Pero anyway, since I believe you are very much knowledgeable about companies I assume you can help my brother with our company. Baguhan pa lamang siya rito. I will be gone for I don't know how many months and I want you to help him."

"Ako kasi ang laging nakaalalay sa kaniya and I'm kinda stressed of this environment. Maaasahan ba kita, Scarlett?" She asked with her innocent eyes. Agad akong tumango.

"Of course, Yve. Salamat dahil binigayan mo ako ng trabaho."

"No worries Scarlett. You can start tomorrow. For now umuwi ka muna. Ang kapatid ko na ang bahalang mag explain sa'yo ng lahat tomorrow. Hindi pa naman ganoon ka busy ang schedule nun e."

I felt her hands on my back as she guide me through the elevator.

"Ilang months na ba si baby?" She ask.

"1 month pa lang." I answered.

"Ano bang pakiramdam mabuntis?"

"Mahirap pero masaya. Mahirap kasi hindi ko kasama ang papa niya pero masaya kasi alam kong pag lumabas na siya may kasama na ako sa buhay." I answered honestly.

"Do you often experience morning sickness?" I immediately nodded.

"Sobra Yve. Araw-araw."

"Aw, kaya takot akong mabuntis e." She playfully said and I laugh.

"Bakit may boyfriend ka na ba?"

"Iyon nga ang problema e, wala pa!"

Magaan kasama si Yve. Hindi ko nga naramdaman na amo siya rito. She treated me like her friend at doon pa lang masaya na ako.
