Chapter 4
Beside Me

*****

"krrruuu..." tunog ng tiyan ko
Alas 6 na ng gabi, hindi ko namalayan na madilim na pala. Mahaba-haba pala ang na trabaho ko ngayon.
I touch my stomach who is angrily hungry.

Ring... telephone rang.

Sino naman kaya to gabi na.
"Good eve Davis Hotel service, how can I help you?" I politely answer.

"Good eve ma'am Zyf, Veina said to call you. Wala na kasing stock ng isda na kailangan bukas. Ang supplier natin ng isda ay wala daw silang kuha kaya hindi sila makapagbenta sa atin ngayon." he said. I stilled.
What a sexy voice he had. I didn't expect he called my line here.

"Zyf?" tawag pansin niya sa akin.

"Oh ye-yes." utal kung sagot sa kanya
Shit.

"Kailangan kasi ito bukas, sabi ng kitchen crew wala na daw stock sa freezer. May event po bukas kaya kailangan ng stock." patuloy niyang sabi.

"Bakit ngayon niyo lang na noti~ kruu..." shit nakakahiya.

"I'm sorry about tha~ kruuu, please give me a minute." sabay baba ko ng telepono.

Tangina... nakakahiya

"Nasan na ba kasi yun." ayon! Kinuha ko ang thumbler at uminom ng tubig para may laman man lang ang tiyan ko. I was supposed to eat now kung namalayan ko lang ang oras. Nakakahiya talaga huhu...

After drinking water I reconnected his line.

Oh god.

"Kumain ka na ba?" agad niyang sabi.

"Wala na bang ibang supplier ng isda?" sa walang bahala ko sa sinabi niya.

"You should eat first, we will talk later hahanapan ko lang ito ng paraan." sabay baba niya ng telepono.

Why is he concern? damn.

I arrange the things in my table, after that I leaved.
Nang bumukas ang elevator dumiretso na ako sa dining then I saw him standing besides the counter. He looks good on his gray shirt.

"Good evening." I greeted them.

"Good evening din ma'am." sabi ng tao sa counter while he was just nodding.

"Why you skip your dinner." hindi yun tanong it's a sentence.

"I was able to eat, hindi ko lang namalayan na gabi na." why I am explaining my ass here. I don't know him, he don't know me too. We both only know our names.

He just staring at me curiously.

"Smothered pork chops and fresh apple please." I ordered to the chef.

"Please water din salamat." pahabol kong sabi.

"Sige po ma'am, Hell diba kakain ka rin sabay nalang kayo ni ma'am, ano sayo?" Tiningnan niya ako na para bang nagtatanong kung okay lang sa akin.

I just give him a Nah I don't mind look. Sabay hanap ko ng bakanteng lamesa.

"Chicken parmesan lang Geif." rinig kong sabi niya tsaka siya sumunod sa akin papuntang lamesa kung saan ko gustong kumain.
Umupo ako ng maayos while he sitted besides me.

"Yung tungkol kanina nagawan mo na ba ng paraan?" tanong ko sa kanya.

"Oo, nakahanap na ako ng supplier pero hindi pa din kasya sa pursyento na sabi ng kitchen crew. Kaya ako nalang ang mangisda." paliwanag niya. Hindi ko akalaing alam niya ang pangingisda.
