REECE'S POV

Sitting on my swivel chair, facing towards the huge glass window overlooking the view of the morning road, I can't help to get mad at myself while reminiscing what happened last night.

I cheated. Fuck!

"Sebastian?" Mariin akong napapikit nung marinig ko ang boses na 'yon ni Natasha. Hindi ko siya magawang harapin dahil baka sakanya ko maibuntod ang galit ko. "I'll go now." pagpapaalam niya. "I'll call you later, okay?" isang simpleng pagtango lang ang sinagot ko habang nakatalikod pa rin.

I heard the her footsteps. The door opened and the very second it closed,  I faced my desk and pushed  all of the things off the table in anger.

Rinig ko ang pagkabasag ng monitor kasama ang laptop ko. All the folders and unopened proposals fell all over the floor. The glass name plate was in pieces to in where my name couldn't be read anymore.

"Fuck, Reece! Just Fuck! Goddamit!" sunod sunod kong mura at napasabunot sa ulo.

Wala akong ibang masisi kundi ang sarili ko. I was on my right mind yet I let that happen. Remembering what I did last night makes me wanna puke in disgust. Guilt is eating my sanity again. I know I shouldn't feel bad because  Caden and I aren't in any romatic relationship but I can't help feeling like hell while thinking he could have waited for me last night yet I was here fucking another woman.

Look what this avoiding thing made me! I'm going insane!

Nasuntok ko ang mesa dahil sa pag-iinit ng ulo.

Paano ko haharapin si Caden ngayon? But.. gagawin ko pa ba 'yon? Haharapin ko pa ba siya? Should I just exterminate the contract? I know Dad will get sad the moment I end the agreement  but it's the only solution I could think of right now. I can't let these feelings free. I don't want to be like Oliver and Gunther because I don't want Caden to experience the same thing happened to Casper and Coby.

Naging saksi ako kung gaano kahirap ang mga pinagdaanan nila.

When you think of it, it is already starting. The agony and sorrow of Caden being connected to me has already begun.

Loving a Buenavista is like suicide.

"Hala, anong nangyari dito boss?" gulat si Lucas na iginala ang tingin sa mga kalat sa sahig.

"Kung nandito ka para mas inisin pa ako-"

"Hindi, boss." mabilis siyang umiling at humakbang papalapit sakin. "Hindi kita aasarin dahil sa estado mong 'yan mapapatay mo na talaga ako." kita ko ang paglunok niya, pinapahayag na literal siyang kinakabahan. Hindi ko maialis ang matulis kong pagtingin sakanya. "Wag mo naman ako tingnan ng ganyan, boss. Nakakatakot."

"Just state the fucking reason why you're-"

"Nasa Italy si Onyx." sumingit na naman siya. "Dumalo siya sa isang kasiyahan sa pag-asang baka makakuha siya ng katiting na impormasyon tungkol sa Mancuso Clan."

Sumandal ako sa swivel chair at nag-iwas ng tingin. I sighed before talking. "What happened last night.."

"Oo boss, nakita ko. CCTV." hindi ko na kailangan pang kumpletuhin ang pangungusap ko at mabilis niyang nakuha. "May ngiting tagumpay na lumabas si Medusa kanina, boss! HAHAHAH! Tama nga si Caden! Mukha siyang ahas! BWAHAHAHA- a-ahem.." napatikhim siya nung muli kong tinapon sakanya ang galit kong mga mata.
