Yes, No, Maybe

Chapter 5

"Sir?" I asked.

"Who are you?" Seryoso niyang tanong.
His eyes squinted as his brows met.

Naguguluhan ko siyang tiningnan. Kento mentioned my name tons of times. Nakasunod nga ako sa kanya kasi personal assistant niya ako. He even called me the initials of P.A.

However, I chose to answer his question.

"Personal maid niyo po. Si Ava," sagot ko.

Why is he so near to me. Bakit sobrang lapit ng mukha niya sa mukha ko? Pwede naman siyang magtanong na nasa malayo. Does he really have to be this near?

"I don't believe you," he said. "Hindi ka mukhang maid."

Mas lalong kumunot noo ko. "Ano pong ibig niyong sabihin?"

"Makinis balat mo at masyado kang maarte para maging maid. You even had the guts to embarrass me in front of everyone," he paused and squinted his eyes more. "I will ask you again. Who are you?"

Should I be flattered by his compliment. I mean, he did say na makinis kutis ko. Well, dapat lang niyang pansinin ito. I invested a lot just so I can have a healthy skin.

"Salamat sir, pero kasambahay lang po talaga ako. Nag-apply ako sa mismong Daddy niyo," I insisted.

Tumaas yung magkabila niyang kilay at dumistansya sa akin. Saka lang ako nakahinga nang maluwag. Didn't know it can be that suffocating.

"Why would Dad hire a personal maid for me? Ngayon lang niya ito ginawa. That's sus," he said as he scratch his chin.

"Siguro naisip niya na baka kakailanganin niyo ng tulong gaya ngayon," I replied and then went closer to his bag. "Anong kailangan niyo, sir?"

He sighed. "Nothing. Lumabas ka na nga lang. Papasukin mo si Kento."

"Si Sir Kento? Pero ako yung katulong niyo sir. Kaya ko pong gawin kahit mahihirap na bagay," sabi ko.

"Kaya mo?" Hamon niya.

I nodded.

Ngumisi siya nang sobrang pilyo at agad hinubad yug shirt niya. Nanlaki ang aking mga mata nang bumungad sa akin ang abs niya. With my cheeks almost burning, I tried to look chill at agad tumalikod.

"Sir, ano po yung ginagawa niyo?" I asked, irritation was visible on my voice.

"I need to choose an underwear for the shoot. Hihingi sana ako ng tulong kung alin ang nababagay. Well, I could use an opinion from a woman just like yourself," he said that gave me goosebumps all over my body.

Hell no!

"Tama ka sir. Tatawagin ko nalang si Sir Kento. Mukhang mas may alam pa siya keysa sa akin."

I turned around and then opened the door to get myself out of the room. Saka lang ako nakahinga nang maluwag nang makalabas na. Anong kababuyan ba ang iniisip niya? Hindi man lang ako sinabihan muna kung ano yung gagawin.

"Did you just came out of the room as red as a tomato?" Bungad sa akin ng isang babae.

She's tall, taller than me. Maganda din yung pangangatawan niya. Maamo yung mukha at nakasuot ng make up. She looks like a model, or is she?

"Who are you?" Tumaas yung isa niyang kilay at humalukipkip— tiningnan ako mula ulo hanggang paa. She smirked. "Oh. A maid, I see. Anong ginagawa mo sa dressing room ni Timothee? Are you harrassing him?" Mapanghusga niyang tanong.

Umiling ako. "Hindi. Maid nga ako, diba?" Pamimilosopo ko sa kanya.

I don't have to act like I'm kind towards anybody else. Well, I can pretend as a maid, but I can't pretend my personality. Ang kailangan ko lang maging mabait ay kang Manang Abby. She is the boss of the mansion afterall.
