Tempted
It made me anxious after hearing that from him. I was on my way back to Manila. I have scheduled meeting this week. Pagkatapos ay babalik din ulit ako sa Glan. He even drove me for a flight. Hindi siya umalis hanggang sa hindi kami nakakaalis.
I was walking through the conference room when I saw someone that made me stop. Elisha Delgacio is on her gray blazer and a black leather skirt. May kasama itong babae na kung titignan ay secretary niya.
I wonder if whom she ended up. Nakita ko sa status ni Dion na wala siyang asawa. I wonder if the resume is legit, but it was stated that he is single.
I walked confidently and sat beside Marciano. Nakita ko sa sa gilid ng mga mata na nakatingin ang babaeng nasa harap ko. I talked to Marciano about the current situation of my project in Glan. He was amazed that he even called his father beside him.
Sa totoo, mabilis ang aksyon doon. Lalo at magaling din ang kasama kong dalawang engineer. The workers were really good.
Nagtama ang mga mata namin ni Elisha nang tumingin ako sa harapan. They were introduced by Marciano as our new investor. I was smiling widely while looking at her shocked face. How good seeing that.
Palabas na ako nang nagmamadali dahil tapos na ang meeting. Mamayang hapon pa ako babalik sa Glan. May dadaanan pa ako for my derma. Masyadong nababad ako sa hangin ng dagat kaya iba ang nararamdaman. Babalik din naman ako sa Glan at posibleng balewala ito, pero gusto ko lang magpa-derma para maayos naman pagbalik.
I ended up looking at myself on a mirror. Maayos na ang mukha at malayo na sa kaninang halatang babad sa araw. Although tan skin is good for me, but I want new.
I lowered my eyeglasses as I looked down on my chelsea. I was walking out of the airport. I am tired. Nagbyahe ako agad mula Maynila hanggang Glan. My body wants to rest. Gabi na nang dumating ako. I looked around trying to find a car when a familiar SUV stopped in front of me. I frowned.
Kahit gabi ay nakilala ko ang sasakyan. Dion on his white long sleeve came out. He loosen his necktie as he walked around to open the door from the passenger seat.
"Why are you here?" nagtataka kong tanong.
Hindi ko sinabi na ngayon ang uwi ko. kanina pa na siya? Natigilan ako. Even it was dark, I can see his eyes looking at me intently.
"To take you home?" he answered before motioned his hands to an open door.
I sighed and rolled my eyes before entered. Ayoko nang makipagtalo, masyado akong pagod. Tahimik ulit ang byahe. He looked serious while driving. Hindi ako sigurado kung galing ba ito sa trabaho ngunit sa pagkakaalam ko ay lumipad ito pa Zambales kahapon para sa re-opening ng isang branch nila doon.
"What do you want to eat?" he asked in his hunk voice.
I coughed a little and looked outside. Huminto kami sa isang 7/11. Iyon lang ang bukas sa oras na iyon.
"I only want drinks," palabas na ako nang pigilan niya ako.
Nagtataka akong tumingin sa kan'ya.
"I'll go. You stay here," he said before rushed out of the driver seat before I can lend my money.
Tinanaw ko na lang siya habang papasok sa loob. Binalingan ko ang cellphone niyang nasa dashboard nang umilaw iyon. I looked on it. Someone who's name 'julz' is calling.
It rang three times before Dion came. Inabot niya ang isang take home-packs sa akin bago inabot ang cellphone at lumabas. Sinilip ko ang binigay niya. It was a chicken barbecue with a rice, a siopao and a gulp.
