Work
I needed work, so I searched online if I can find any available that can value my schedule.
Just Now:
Lim Enterprise is looking for the new business manager of their CEO.
The news easily spread in the internet. Luckily, my course is BS management.
My mom wanted me to pursue business more than what I want.
I emailed the Lim Enterprise to submit my resume.
From: Lim Enterprise
Good day to you Ms. We saw your resume and the management agreed that you'll only work on weekends.
Our CEO wants to interview you before we'll accept you to our company. The interview will be headed tomorrow at our main building.
Thank you, and goodluck.
As I saw their email, I was shocked and happy at the same time. I really didn't think I would be chosen to begin with.
As the sun sets, I can finally start a better future for me.
For me the sunset didn't represent end, it represents a start of a new beginnings.
I did my night routine before heading at my bed.
I was putting my mask on when my phone beeped.
Unknown number:
See you tomorrow, miss.
The message was simple but it was disturbing. It was creepy. But I just blocked the number so I won't get any messages.
And with that, I sleep happily ready for my interview.
I woke up happily before doing my daily morning routines. The enterprise also emailed me the time to meet up so I can have time to fix myself.
On the way, I saw some friends also entering the building.
Hmm, maybe they are also here for the application.
"Miss, saan po kayo?" The front guard asked me.
"Mag-aaply po ako bilang business manager po." Wika ko at tinanguan naman ng guwardiya.
Tumawag ang guard sa telepono bago ituro sa akin ang daan papunta sa office ng CEO.
Umakyat kami sa kanilang elevator na sobrang laki na ang 50 katao ay kasya.
"15th floor po, and itanong niyo na lang po sa nga empleyado yung room ni sir." Nakangiting wika ng guwardiya sa akin.
Nang makarating sa palapag na sinabi ng guwardiya ay nag tanong ako sa mga empleyado kung nasaan ang kuwarto ng kanilang boss.
"Go straight lang po diyan sa kantong iyan and go left." Simpleng sagot ng binibini.
Nagtungo ako sa lugar na sinabi ng ginang at nakita ko ang isang napakalaking pintuan na may nakasulat na 'CEO'S OFFICE'.
Kumatok ako sa pintuan at biglang kinabahan ng malakas na binuksan ng isang lalaki ang pintuan.
"Did you not know that you should ask me first if you wanna kno-" naputol ang kaniyang pagsigaw ng makita ako sa harapan niya.
God! Really?! Dito pa talaga!
"Ohh, it's you. Ms. Abañarez."
"Yes, it's me sir." Pagsagot ko sa boss ko.
"You should ask before you knock, is that okay?" He asked calmly and I nodded.
Pinapasok niya ako sa loob at pinaupo. Napakaganda ng kuwartong ito dahil mayroon itong dalawang bookshelves na napakalaki rin, may isang kuwarto, may kusina, at may Cr pa!
Grabe!
"Marianne Clea Abañarez, Business Management, 3rd year at Harvard University." He looked impressed looking at my resume.
"Hmm, interesting." He replied when I didn't answer him.
"Where did you get your eyes? From your father?" He asked.
Agad akong natigilan ng marinig ang salitang FATHER. Ang tao na sumira sa buhay ko. He tried to raped me back then.
He looked at me uneasy.
"Uh, are you okay?" He asked giving me a glass of water.
"Y-yes." Nangingig kong usal.
After drinking the water, we talked about my work.
"You're gonna work here." He pointed his finger at the seat near the room which I believe is his bedroom.
I simply nodded.
"Come on." He replied while making me urge to come come in the room.
"You know....." He chuckled huskily.
Napalunok ako dahil sa paglapit niya sa akin.
Akma na niya akong hahalikan ng may kumatok sa pintuan.
Sayang!
"Sir!" Sigaw ng isang lalaki base sa kanyang boses.
"Ugh! Fck!"
"Ano?!"
"U-uh, sir may meeting po kayo for late-"
"Cancel it all." He replied powerful.
Nag bow ang lalaki bago umalis.
"Shall we continue?" He asked getting serious now.
"Uh, sir kailan po ba ako magtratrabaho? Tanggap na po ba ako?" Tanong ko, pagiiba ng topic.
"Stop changing the topic baby." He replied sexily.
"Yes, you're hired and yes, you can start working tomorrow." He replied smiling.
God! He looked good when smiling!
"Any questions dear?" He asked chuckling.
Nahahalata nito siguro na pilit kong iniiba ang topic na pinaguusapan namin.
"How about the monthly payment?" I asked.
"Hmm, how about 1000$ per month?" He asked smirking again.
Ok! Hindi ba siya nauubusan ng reactions! Akala ko pa naman emotionless siya!
"T-talaga sir?" I asked again, hindi makapaniwala sa sinabi nito.
"Do I look like a joker?" He asked getting more serious than before.
I chuckled lightly but he heard it.
"Oh, don't laugh, maybe you can't laugh if yiu think what happened last week?" He asked getting more playful.
Kinuha ko ang cellphone at animo'y may tinatawagan.
"Hi baby!" Wika ko sa telepono.
"You don't have a boyfriend so stop pretending." He chuckled.
What? Pati yun alam niya!
"So, wanna be my boyfriend then?" I asked smirking.
"Boyfriend only? What if sugar daddy?" He asked chuckling lightly.
"Sugar daddy? You're not old silly." I replied back.
"I was one year ahead of you. I didn't school. My family's rich and.... I like you." Pahabol nito.
Natulala ako sa kawalan at parang may mga gumagalaw sa tyan ko.
Nang hindi ko namalayan nanakawan na niya ako ng halik.
A/N:
So yung nangyari is first time talaga ni Clea, her father didn't have sex with her, he touched and harassed her.
Just to clarify po.
:)
