Pitch of the Nimbus (Cloud Series #2)

Nimbus 33

Chapter 33
MALFUNCTION

Abala ang kompanya sa sumunod na mga araw. The upcoming launching of the gaming app is getting near and everyone was very busy of it. From there, I witnessed how everyone in the company was very efficient and good of their work. Everyone was dedicated and again... I know I'm finally in a good working environment.

Tumulong kami sa pag-aasikaso. My team was busy of it too, so I tried to help them with the minority.

While I was busy with my computer, nahagilap ng tingin ko ang babaeng kapapasok lang. It was the woman who's always beside Sojin. Everyone was greeting her and she greeted back politely. Diretso at confident ang lakad niya papunta sa opisina ni Sojin at komportableng pumasok doon.

Kakapasok lang din ni Sojin kanina. Magsunod lang sila. Hindi kami nagkakatagpo ni Sojin sa mga nagdaan araw dahil sobrang abala niya sa launching. He rarely goes out in the office. O kung lalabas man, sa conference agad ang punta dahil sa napakaraming ka-business meeting. But everytime our eyes meet, he will always look at me seriously, if not glaring. He still looked mad kahit na hindi na kami nagkausap ulit pagkatapos noong hapong iyon.

"Ang ganda niya 'no?" turo ni Lyka sa babaeng tinitigan ko.

Napakurap ako. I cleared my throat and swiftly looked at my computer.

"Girlfriend ba 'yon ni Sir? Laging kasa-kasama, e." tanong ni Romina. Magkakatabi kami ngayon dahil sa inaasikaso.

"She's a rumor girlfriend of Sir Farrick. Pero ang sabi, hindi pa naman daw girlfriend. Nililigawan pa lang yata. Or who knows? Baka girlfriend na talaga at hindi lang sinasabi."

Natigil ang kamay ko sa pagtitipa. I looked at them in the side of my eyes so I won't be too obvious that I was interested of their topic.

"Pero hindi siya nagtatrabaho rito, 'diba? Lagi lang siyang pumupunta." si Romina.

"Yes... She's from another company. Her dad is a web developer." si Rossell.

"Hindi ba fling ni Sir? Nililigawan talaga?" Romina asked curiously.

Napalunok ako at may kung anong nagbara sa lalamunan.

"Hindi 'no! Friendly si Sir kaya masasabi mo agad kung babae niya ang kasama o kaibigan lang. Ma'am Dhiza is different. She can't be his fling or a friend. The treatment he gave her? Nah. It's so special. Kung hindi pa sila ngayon, I'm sure magiging sila rin. Halata namang may gusto rin si Ma'am Dhiza kay Sir, e." Lyka cheered enthusiastically.

"Ah," Romina snapped disappointingly. "Ganda naman kasi nun, e! Wala na. Wala na akong pag-asa!"

Lyka laughed. "Crush mo si Sir?"

"Syempre! Ikaw ba hindi?"

"He's my ideal man actually. Alam mo 'yon? He's the type of man that can be intimidating but friendly at the same time. Bait-bait pa niyan ni Sir, promise!"

"Diba? Diba? Hayst! Nag-si-simp pa ako sa kanya, e! Pinutol naman agad!"

My thoughts went elsewhere. Hindi ko na nagalaw pa ulit ang keyboard ko dahil nakatunganga na lang ako sa monitor, naiwan ang utak sa pinag-uusapan nila. They're now back in working while I'm still gawking at my computer, lost in thoughts.

I swallowed hard.

It's okay... I won't expect him to stay loyal when I know he can get all the girls he wants. Sobrang gwapo niya. Mayaman, matikas at gumanda na nang sobra ang pangangatawan ngayon. He would make every girls kneel before him. I'm even surprise that... he's still courting.
