Eudaimonia Dépaysement (T.R.A.V.E.L SERIES #5)

Chapter 3

---

Late man ako nakauwi sa condo ay maaga pa rin akong gumising. I have work.

Ugh, masyadong panira ng sleep!

Nakabusangot tuloy ako habang nag aayos ng sarili. Though lagi naman akong nakabusangot. I barely smile so when I do, it means it's fake.

Bahala sila jan, bakit ko sila ngingitian, close kami?

I wore a white fluffy turtleneck long sleeves then tucked it in jeans that's wide leg and have a slit on the ends. I put a clip on both sides of my hair para hindi messy ang buhok though I left some bangs.

The clips are full of small diamonds.

I chose a white purse to match my top. Nang matapos mag ayos ay umalis na ako ng condo. May meeting pa, god.

Days were always like this. Tapos sa gabi ay magbabar. Though not every night anymore dahil we all started getting busy na with our work. Almost lagi kaming nag oovertime!

They may look carefree and just chill but when it comes to their companies, they're so competitive. All of us are! Kaya we always focus and choose our work first. We understand each other because we're all the same.

And ilang taon na rin, mabuti nalang talaga at matagal na kaming magkakakilala. Since college pa, we got used to each other's attitude already. We know and we can easily read each other. We know when to adjust and when to interfere.

Mabuti na rin na before pa kami nag start sa pagtatrabaho kami nagkakila kilala because if now? For sure we won't be as close as now!

Not because of the time but because of the business industry na ginagalawan namin. No matter how far our businesses are to each other, when you're on top, people want you to fall.

Kaya mahirap magtiwala.

So I don't really trust anyone anymore especially if it's in the business industry.

About the Kendric guy, I haven't seen him in clubs. Not that I'm looking for him but I'm kind of expecting he's a club guy. Like parang laging tambay sa clubs and will look for girls to, you know, fuck.

Geez.

I retouched my makeup before going to my father's office. Sabi nila ay we'll have a meeting later but before that, we'll talk muna daw. Just us. I put half of my hair in a bun before leaving some strands of hair as bangs.

Nang matapos ay umalis na akong office ko at pumunta ng floor nina Mama. My office is at the top, nasa labas ay ang secretary ko. Wala siyang office but there's a cubicle there just for her.

Wala naman ibang tao dito sa floor ko kahit may mga offices pa. We stocked some papers lang sa iba and lagi namang nakalock ang mga iyon. The keys are with me. Walang makakapasok and no one is allowed in this floor except me, my secretary and my parents.

Sila lang.

Nang makapasok sa office ni Papa ay humalik muna ako sa pisngi nila bago naupo na sa katapat na upuan.

"What are we gonna talk about?" I asked them.

"We're gonna be having new investors. There's a lot who want to invest, some are out of their league already, that's why it's kind of suspicious." Panimula ni Daddy.

What Papa mean by that is masyado ng malayo ang field nila sa business namin but they're still gonna invest.

Napaseryoso naman ako. Mama just continued reading something on her table. Mukhang alam niya na ang pag uusapan namin. They use the same office kasi, ugh, love birds.
