Love, Wrong Sent

Love 50

My days were dull. All my works and plans couldn't meet the satisfaction I raised. I've been working like a zombie for weeks now dahil nagluluksa pa ako sa puso kong parang namatayan. 

Hindi na muna ako nagpakita sa Architech or anything that links to Architech. Kung may meetings at gatherings ay si Maia ang ipinapadala ko. I've been hiding inside my den trying to seek peace for my mind. 

I don't want to think about anything or anyone right now. I just want to focus on my job 'cause Innova is getting busier each day. 

"I know you have plenty of things to finish but I just want to inform you na next month na lang natin sisimulan ang planning for Ms. Eleazar's house."

He was sipping on his tea with crossed legs. Lancelot Salvo invited me for a cup of tea to discuss Lariza's future house but I refused to go out, for personal reasons, kaya I invited him here sa office nalang. 

I do really think this man is kinda dangerous to be with. His aura screams flirting na kahit tignan ka palang niya ay parang nanghuhubad na. He has that kind of aura and I find it very dangerous, especially for Lariza. 

I know Lariza is a strong and independent woman that I could be proud of but I had to put boundaries myself because seeing this man in front of me made me want to protect her. 

Or maybe I'm just going overboard of judging this man. But I have to be cautious! I don't want her to be hurt. 

I raised an eyebrow to think briefly about his proposal of planning. Tumango ako nang maisip na busy nga kami ngayong buwan, siguro siya rin, kaya next month would be better.

We ended our quick meeting with a goodbye dahil he's a busy architech daw. Sarap lang batukan ng isang yun! Akala niya naman gusto ko pang makasama siya ng ilan pang segundo!

Binisita ko iyong building na flooring and wall painting nalang ang kulang sa El Salvador. The client was quite generous in his pricing. Kaya kailangan talagang ayusin. Well, lahat naman ay dapat ayusin, type ko lang ang pricing ng client na ito. 

Gagawin palang care center ang building na 'to kaya namangha talaga ako sa client. Non-profit organization daw. May isang company who offered to support the center din. Their family believed in humanity daw talaga and it should start with themselves. Totoo nga naman. 

Paano mo mababago ang mundo kung hindi mo sisimulan sa sarili mo. 

I was so satisfied with what I'm seeing kaya I decided to leave the site na. I wonder if makakakuha ba kami ng ganitong mga client even without Architect? Parang mahirap. We need backers since kaka-start pa lang namin. And we really need to attract more partnerships and investors.

Hindi ko lang alam kung bakit Architech Company chose to have a partnership with Innova since isang private company sila. Hindi ko nalang in-istress ang sarili sa pag-iisip.

Bumalik na ako sa office dahil naalala kong marami pa pala akong tatapusin. I consciously counted the time of how long I've been working and it took me almost an hour. I was drowned in reading all the documents about a project in Amaya when a knock was heard from my office door. 

I know it's just Maia trying to inform me about something kaya hindi na ako nag-aksaya ng lakas para lingunin siya. Magsasalita naman ito kung may sasabihin. 

Ngunit patagal nang patagal akong nagbabasa ay wala akong narinig na salita mula sa kanya. Bagkus, isang card ang inilapag niya sa mesa saka tahimik na umalis. Wala rin yata siya sa mood para magdaldal ngayon. Kaming lahat naman yata, dahil sobrang busy talaga.

I took a quick glance at the card but napansin kong hindi ito ordinaryong card. It was a burgundy scented envelope. It looks classy and elegant that makes me don't want to hold it. I know what it was so I refused to read it.
