Chapter 32:
Kinabukasan ay nagulat nalang ako nang kasabay ko sa elevator si Gio. At kami lang dalawa sa elevator. Shit. awkward.
Gio: Mr. Hernandez, thank you for hiring me.
Ace: it's not my decision
Gio: oh.
Bumukas ang elevator at agad agad akong pumunta sa office ko pero bago pa man ako makalabas sa elevator bigla niya akong hinila.
Gio: Ace, mahal mo pa ba ako?
Ano nga ba? mahal ko pa ba siya? WWWAAHHH! Ang aga aga!
Ace: go straight to Mr. Cameron's office.
Naglakad ako papalayo sakanya. Gosh! Bat ang bitchy ko ngayon? Nang pumasok ako sa office ko, pumasok si Calgor at ang team ko sa office at kinausap ako.
Calgor: Mr. Ace Hernandez, sorry but we can't behave because of our fucking curiosity. Tell us,do you know Mr. Gio Caturan?
Bakit ba ang chichismosa nitong mga taong to?! Umupo ako sa desk ko at humarap sakanila.
Ace: what the hell are you talking about?
Bosch: just tell us.
Ano bayan naaaburito ako.
Ace: no.
Adelaide: oooppps! The device said lie.
Sam: so you really know him
Ace: what the hell is that?
Adelaide: it's a lie detector and you just lied.
Ace: how can you make sure it's accurate?
Bosch: it's actually from the FBI. A new device. Tell us, do you have a relationship with him?
Ace: what?
CAlgor: just please tell us everything. Were just curious.
Ace, wala ka nang magagawa diyan. Sabihin mo na lahat.
Ace: okay fine, but promise me you'll never going to tell everyone about this okay?

Pumasok kaming lima sa conference room at nakita naming ang tatlo sa loob; sina Walter, Afyia, at Gio. Nang tuluyan na kaming makapasok, nagmadali silang humanap ng upuan. Ang bilis! Parang trip to Jerusalem ang peg! Parang mauubusan ng upuan. Ang natira nalng na upuan, sa tabi ni Gio. TANGINA NIYO GUYS! Umupo ako sa tabi ni Gio. #AwkwardMonday
Ace: okay guys, on January 23rd next year, we have to sell a lot of watches, and our aim is ten million dollars. If we got our aim, each and everyone of us will receive three million dollars. What we need today, is stratedgy on how we could get ten million by just selling our watches.
Bosch: okay, each and everyone of us, suggest something.
Katahimikan......katahimikan.
Adelaide: maybe we could arrange some kind of gallery of watches for sale.
Ace: nice, ...okay......gallery of watches.
Afyia: how about we set up a program for families, friends everyone and let them have fun and let them know what time really is and at the same time were endorsing watches from the cheap one to the expensive one.
Ace: it's a good suggestion Afyia. Anyone else? Hhhmmm? Sam? Calgor? Bosch? Walter?
Sam: how about you Gio?
