09: Invitation
Ainee's POV
I woke up because my cellphone suddenly rang on my side table, I grabbed it and opened it. The four messages startled me.
I stood up to take a good look at the messages, I read the one in front first and it was from Guine, it was an invitation to a party. I didn't read everything written in the invitation and I followed to read the next one, it was from Olivier and I sighed because his message was just like Guine's, the same party invitation. I did not read and followed the third.
I can almost shoot down my cellphone because their message is the same, it's from kevin so his message follows, and what is written is...
From: Kevin
Punta tayo may pagkain doon MWEHEHE!!
Seriously? Kevin?
Are they crazy?
I expected the fourth message to be a fvcking invitation again so I didn't open it, I just got up and did my morning routine then I went down for breakfast.
Too many invitations...
I caught up with manang fe who had already finished cooking because the food was already served on the table. I'm also going to go to work now because I might be piled up with papers, I don't want to rush.
Kumain nalang ako and as usual mag-isa. Tumingin ako sa naka-sabit na orasan at nakitang 07:40 am na, binilisan ko ang kilos ko dahil marami pa akong kailangang gawin. Iniwan ko nalang kay namang Fe ang pinag-kainan ko, sinabihan ko na'rin siya na kumain.
I went back to my room and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower, this time i didn't take it easy duh! because i don't want to rush when i take a bath, i want to make sure i'm clean because I'm not comfortable when i only take a bath for fifteen minutes.
After taking a bath for about an hour i dressed formally just like i always wear when going to work. I sat on my bed and dried my hair with a blower, i didn't blow dry it too much because i feel like my hair will blast when it's too dry so I'll just let it dry on its own.
Though it's not really a blast, i ajust really feel it.
When i was satisfied with my hair i approached the vanity table and I put on light makeup, i was not in the mood to thicken my makeup. I arranged my hair and stood up, picked up everything i could take and left my room.
Pag-baba ko sa sala ay naabutan ko na naman si manang Fe na nag-va-vacum. "Manang Fe, aalis na po ako." Pag papa-alam ko, shit! I look like a child. Tsk i hate that.
Tumango lang naman siya at sinabing mag-ingat ako sa pag-mamaneho. And since I'm too lazy to drive now, I told my driver to drive me to Rae Corp. While we were on the way to Rae Corp, my cellphone suddenly rang again, I took it from my bag and read the message at sa pangalawang pag-kakataon it was an another invitation from Jake so i returned it.
freaking invitation... Ganon talaga nila kagusto pumunta 'don? Kaninong party ba 'yon? Well aalamin ko 'yan mamaya.
It took us thirty minutes before reaching Rae Corp, i got out of the car and walked in.
"Good morning ma'am..."
"Good morning."
"Welcome back ma'am."
Napataas ang kilay ko sa narinig ko. Welcome back? Tsk saglit lang akong nawala, I ignore them and walk straight to the elevator at pinindot ko yung floor ng office ko.
I also have employees who gossip and what they are still talking about is about the party, so it's not just Pearl who knows about that party, I only found out about it from them because of what they send invitation to me.
"Aattend ka mamaya?" Tanong nung isa sa kasama niya.
"Of course... minsan lang 'to kaya sulitin na," sagot naman ng babae.
Saktong bukas yung elevator kaya lumabas na ako at nag-tungo sa office ko, pumasok ako at dumiretso sa table ko, nilapag ko doon ang bag ko bago umupo sa swivel chair.
I opened my laptop and at the same time Carmyne entered my office. "Ma'am sa wakas pumasok ka na." Para siyang naka-hinga ng malalim.
"Where are the papers?" I asked her. She laid the papers she was carrying on my table, it's a good thing there isn't too much paper so maybe I'll finish it quickly. "Give me my schedule." Inilahad ko ang kamay ko.
Kinuha niya yung papel na nakaipit na folder niya. "Here ma'am." Inabot niya sa'kin yung papel. Wala din masyadong ganap.
"Ma'am aattend po ba kayo ng party mamaya?" Bigla niyang natanong.
I looked at her. "What party?" Tanong ko pretending that I don't know.
"Ahh! Check niyo nalang po sa twitter, may nag-post kasi eh." She said. "Una na po ako may gagawin pa po ako eh." I just nodded.
When Carmyne left my office, i immediately clicked on twitter, I knew that the invitation that Guine and I had given me was the same as the party they were talking about, but everyone knew.
When i opened my twitter, the invitation post opened up to me and this time I read what was written there.
INVITATION PARTY
welcome to all of you, i jaime Riego the personal assistant of Mr. Thomas Miller and I'm here to let you know that a party will be held tonight at 8:00 pm as a welcome to Mr. Thomas Miller.
we look forward to you.
So totoo nga na may party, at pwedeng pumunta lahat ng gustong pumunta, it would be a big party then.
A welcome party for Mr. Thomas Miller...
Sinimulan ko na agad ang trabaho ko at nag focus sa ginagawa, I still can't figure out if I'm going, i feel differently about that person but I also want to know his true nature. maybe I'll think about that later, I need to finish it now.
***
It's already 4:00 pm sa wakas ay natapos ko na ang mga gagawin ko, pero may mga itinabi pa akong ilang mga documents.
I rested for ten minutes before taking my cellphone out of the bag, I immediately searched for Guin's number.
To: Guine
we are going to the party...
When I sent a text, I turned off my cellphone and put it back in my bag, I leaned on the swivel chair and thought about random things. I miss my parents. It's been a few years since I last visited their grave, I missed them so bad, when I found out from uncle Ferdinand that they were gone, I don't know if I will believe at that time, I seem to have lost all strength of matter. I was only ten years old then so those things haven't entered my brain much yet. all i wanted was a happy family with mom and dad but they denied it.
They made my life miserable.
Tinigilan ko ang pag-iisip tungkol sa magulang ko dahil baka tumulo nalang bigla ang luha ko at iyon ang pinaka ayaw ko.
crying made me look weak. That's why I don't like crying.
Maybe I'll just prepare for the party later, it still looks like it's not just a party, well I'm sure the attendees will be mostly rich.
Tsk...
Rich people to rich people, interesting.
