Azalea

The next week was hell. Anthony has no time for me, different opposite of his words. He will always say 'I had time for you wifey, but I need to accompany Rietta because she's new here. She doesn't know manila yet' like tsk! Agghhhh! It's so frustrating you know!

I know my husband, and he always had time for me even in work days. But with this wich here! I can't even kiss my husband.

Oh how I miss his soft lips, his embrace and possessiveness. But 'someone' had to ruin it.

Just like now. It's weekends but I'm in my office, working my butt up while someone is having fun touring around my husband's favorite island.

I sight. I never feel this jealousy before. I never felt jealous at all. But now, I realized Jealousy is bad for health.

I feel miserable this past weeks. Without my husband's attention, I feel low and weak to even move, like I can't function well without my energy doses. His the root of my energy after all. And now that he has no time for me. I felt really hurt and weak.

"Boss! Bat ka nandito?" Gulat na tanong ni Alimar. "Kala ko ba nagpapahinga ka tuwing sabado at linggo?" Tanong niya.

I never go to work at weekends. Mas gusto ko magpahinga. Pero may mga lamok na gusto ko iwasan dahil baka mabaril ko silang dalawa.

"I need to read and sign this papers over here. No time for rest" I said as I continue to read the papers.

Narinig kong humugot siya ng malalim na hininga. "Boss kung meron ka mang problema. Wag kang duwag at harapin mo hindi yung idadaan mo rito at magmumukmuk ka jan kasama tong mga walang kwentang papel. Ang Azalea na kilala ko,matapang at hindi duwag. Nakakapatay nga siya ng walang halong pagsisisi e. Mga problema pa kaya niya." What Alimar said hit me. His right,I should face my problems with my head high. But half of me is scared to do so.

" What if my husband surly let me go after this?" Sabi ko na halos bulong na nga lang.

" Your husband?"

Itinaas ko ang aking mukha at tinignan siya deretso sa mga mata." Pano kung mawala siya sa akin pagkatapos nito?"

"I'm sure young master will—”

"What if he really fall out of me?"

"How could—"

"Pano kung hindi na ako ang Mahal niya? What if he gets mad at me after I confront him? Pano kung. . . What if. . . "

"Hey, boss!" Biglang sigaw ni Alimar at dali-daling pumunta sa akin at pinakalma." Snap out of it boss! " Sigaw nito. Ito ang unang beses na sinigawan niya ako. Well it's me who always shout at him so we're quits.

I sight." Okay, I'm calm. But still—"

" Shhh. . . "Putol nito." Breath in, breath out" he said na agad ko namang sinunod." There's no what if's and pano kung. If you let that two occupied your mind, you can't do the thing you really need to do. Don't let that two get in your nerves and let them fear you. Remember, your Azalea Maze Abrenica-Costena, the most feared business woman and the Queen of mafia. Don't let your problem proved them wrong"

His right. I'm the most fearless woman who ever step in this planet. And I won't proved them wrong.

I smile softly to Alimar. " Your right! Thank you" I said and stand up.

But the moment I stand. I felt my world spin. My eyesight blurred. And my body weak. The next thing I know my body is falling down. But before my body reach the hard and cold floor. A pair of arms catch me just in time.

Even though my head is aching it still shout one name. The name I surly and gladly wanted to see. . . .

Anthony. . .
