Kneel Down, Valentina

2. Involved

"Two martini." As Alessandra commanding drinks, nag-salita si Akito habang ginagawa ang inumin ng kanyang amo.

"Hindi ko alam kung may tatanggapin yung kapatid mo sa araw na 'to, napapagod na ako." He sigh. He was talking about babysitter hiring.

"Well, you can't rest." Alessandra chuckles.

"Your kiss will work." He smiles as he leans closer to her. Alessandra gave him a playful smack kiss on his lips.

"Gawin mo na yan at ihatid mo sa itaas, naroroon ako sa opisina ng gag*ng yun."

Pagkatapos mag-paalam ni Alessandra ay naglakad na ito paakyat sa hagdan.

Akito stared at her curvy convex buttocks of hers wearing simple jeans with her black sleeveless turtle neck top, fitting her perfectly. If he can't resist himself, he will lock her with him inside a room.

Alessandra hear a loud sound of a gun from her brother's office as a girl ran away due to nervousness from his office.

'Paanong magtatagal ang isang babysitter dito kung patuloy n'yang tatakutin? Jusko.' Napabuga na lamang ng hangin ang dalaga bago pumasok sa opisina.

"Paano sila makakapagtrabaho rito kung tinatakot mo?" Alessandra queried.

"We're already living in hell, ayoko ng mga taong akala mo anghel sa sobrang pagka-inosente sa tunay na mundo." Cain's breathed.

"Whatever, is that the last one?" Tanong ni Alessandra at lumapit s'ya sa resume ng mga recruited. Meron pa?

"Meron pa and I'll kill her if she's one minute late." He nagged.

Someone knocked, even the door's already open.

"I-It's exactly eight..." Valentina's breathing heavily as she walks toward the two. Bakit s'ya hapong-hapo? Sa laki ba naman ng mansyon na ito, sinong hindi maliligaw dito?

"Please sit down." Seryosong sambit ni Cain at umupo rin sa swivel chair n'ya.

"Do you have experience in this kind of job?" Panimula ni Cain.

'T-teka? bakit ganyan agad ang tanong? hindi na ba magpapakilala or whatsoever?' Pagtataka ni Valentina sa kanyang isipan.

"No sir." Mabilis n'ya rin namang sagot.

"Then why should I hire you?"

"I may lack of experience in this kind of job, but sir, I'm a fast learner with a lot of patience." Sagot ni Valentina.

Iniligpit ni Cain ang mga resume nilang lahat at tinapon sa basurahan, "tsk, worthless, get out."

Nanlaki ang mga mata ni Valentina sa sinabi ni Cain, "a-ano?"

"I said get out, deaf."

Inilabas ni Cain ang baril n'ya,

"no! I need this job for myself! sir, just hire me, please..." pagmamakaawa ni Valentina. This is the last opportunity she will pursue.

"Cain, let's her give a shot... at si Rei naman ang babantayan n'ya at hindi ikaw kaya 'wag ka nang maarte kung sino ang mga iha-hire mo." Alessandra interjected.

"Speaking of shots, I bring you two some martini." Akito also... interrupt.

Napuno ng pagtataka si Valentina. Hindi dahil sa mga taong biglang sumusulpot sa kanila kundi sa kung tatanggapin ba s'ya o hindi.

"No, get out." Huling sambit ni Cain bago magpaputok ng baril.

Valentina's eyebrows crossed didn't move, and she doesn't even flinch at that gunshot behind her.
