He who she loves

Chapter 35

Ang aga ko nagising ngayon kahit Saturday naman dahil may mga materials ako na need i check para sa opening ng business ko sa monday. It's not just a clothing business, we also have many bags from different brands, make up and it's like a boutique. 

Niyayaya ako mag coffee ni Alexander sa tagaytay but I declined dahil nga may lakad ako. Na guguilty talaga ako dahil sa sunod sunod na pagsisinungaling ko sa kanya but I know he'll understand.

"The bags and sunglasses from paris will be delivered this afternoon, ma'am"

I hired 15 staff because the store is really big. Nagulat nga ako when I saw it, si daddy kasi ang bumili ng place for me and my Kuya's helped me a lot. From choosing a company name and sa lahat. I'm really grateful for them. 

"What about the soap and toners? Tapos na bang ma process?"

The beauty soap that I'm going to launch is not my idea, it's Kuya Leon project,  he gave it to me and let me owned it. Lalo akong ma guilty dahil hindi naman ako ang nahirapan na mag formulate sa soap na iyon.

"Yes ma'am. It was delivered yesterday and Mira will organize it later po"

I just nod my head and look around. Everything around me is new to me and I can't help but to feel overwhelmed. Feeling ko napaka independent ko na ngayon na magbubukas na ako ng sarili kong business.

I named this store thav̱másios from the greek word of fabulous.

"Thank you so much for helping me out, Ana"

Ana smiled. "It's my pleasure Ms. Mondragon''

"Where are you?"

"Nandito na ako sa coffee shop, Ansella. Darating din ba sila?"

"Yup. Asher can't come dahil may emergency daw sa kanila but the rest darating naman lahat"

I asked Ansella to invite them. I'm gonna tell them today na magbubukas ako ng business. Buti na lang ay wala si Asher dahil hindi maganda ang naging huling pag uusap namin.

They will be suprise for sure.

"Mondragon" 

Nagulat ako dahil unang dumating si Liam at hindi niya kasama si Ciella. Hindi ko alam kung paano ako sasagot.

"Kanina ka pa?" Tanong nito.

I slightly nodded my head and looked away. He sat beside me. 

"What would you like to drink? You choose" 

Kinuha niya ang menu na nasa table. 

"Anong meron?" Tanong niya ulit.

Buti ka pa Liam hindi naiilang. Parang ang ayos lang ng lahat sayo. Hindi ako sumagot, kinuha ko ang phone ko at tinext si Alexander. Sabi niya kanina ay papunta na siya.

Traffic siguro dahil gabi na din. 

"I'll have affogato" 

I just nod my head. 

"Let's talk, Brielle. Stop avoiding me"

"What are we gonna talk about?" Taas kilay kong tanong. Ayoko talagang maging mean sa kanya but I can't help it. Nakakainis kasi dahil paulit ulit na lang din naman ang mga sinasabi ni Liam.

"Do you hate me that much?" 

There's something wrong with him today. He looks sad?

"I don't hate you, Liam."
