Chapter 10

Andrea P.O.V

I'm fixing Ma'am Isabella's desk. She's like a family to me. I'm thankful 'cause she gave me this job to raise my  brother who is now currently studying in New York. He's college now and We are just two our parents died in a plane crash and I have to work to give my brother the life I want for him and deserve for him.

"Ma'am Andrea, may lalaki po kasi sa baba, hinahanap po si Ma'am Isabella, eh bilin po kasi ni Ma'am Isabella wag kong papasokin 'yung lalaking 'yun."
Sambit sakin ni Candy one of my co-workers here.

"Ok, thank you"
Lumabas ako sa office ni Isabella and go to the lobby where Candy told me.

"Hi, goodmorning"
I greeted. The man faced me. He's familiar. I know I saw him in one of a pictures. Maybe in Isabella's loptop.

"Hi, I'm Akiro Levarez and I'm here to see your boss" he said seriously. I'm speechless knowing that my boss ex husband is right in front of me. I witnessed how Isabella suffer and move on to this guy. Hearing her story wants me to punch this guy infront of me but I control it. He's one of our big investors after all.

"Umm I regret to inform you sir but Miss Hedalgo is not here yet" I politely said.

"I'll wait for her then," he said. He has a office here but I don't know what's in his mind that he go straightly to Isabella's office.

He's sweating all up. I don't know what happened to him but looks like he face a storm all the way here. He look hassle.

"Sir, Miss Isabella won't like if she finds out that I'm letting someone in her office" Sabi ko naman.

"I don't care, I had some things to talk to her with" he said and losse his tie a little bit. I just sighed and walk away.

I walk back and forth. Waiting for Isabella to come. I know she will get mad at me after letting him in.

And then finally I saw her walking towards me. I stand straight. Ready to face her.

"Hi, good morning, what's with your face?"  She ask me while smiling. You darling, I hope you can still smile after you hear this.

"Akiro's in your office, I'm sorry, he just won't leave, he said he will wait for you" I still manage smile even my lips are moving.

She sighed "what is that guy wants this time?" Her. Losing patience while walking through her office.

Isabella's P.O.V

Pumasok ako sa loob ng office ko at nakita ko nga sya sa loob. I sighed.

"What do you want this time?, May atraso ba ulit ako sayo?" Tanong ko.

He looks at me and scanned me. He look away and scratched the bridge of his nose.

"My car is not fix yet,"

Kumunot naman ang noo ko sa sinabi nya. "Oh pake ko sa kotse mo?"

"You Crushed into it so I have to fvcking commute all the way here!"

"And?, May mga kotse ka namang Iba dyan ah!" Inis kong sabi. Ano namang kinalaman ko 'don.

"I live in Laguna not here in Manila, my cars are in Laguna"

"Anong kinalaman ko dyan?"

"Ihatid mo 'ko"
Para syang bata.

"Bakit naman ihahatid?!, Pwede naman sa mga kaibigan mo ah o kaya kay Xien"

"They're busy," sabi nya sabay iwas ng tingin. Ano bang trip ng lalaking ito. Marami namang paraan. Kung wala sana akong atraso dito kayang-kaya ko syang itaboy pero ang may kasalanan.

"Fine, I also have a meeting there sumabay ka na sakin" huminga na lang ako ng malalim at naunang lumabas.

Binilin ko muna kay Andrea ang lahat habang nasa meeting pa ako sa Laguna.

"Pasok. Bilis"
Pagdedemand ko. Tinaasan nya ako ng kilay kaya ginawa ko rin pabalik.

"I will drive." Matigas nyang sabi at hinablot ang susi sa kamay ko.

"Bakit naman aber?" Nakapamewang kong sabi.

"The last time you drove a car you crushed into someone's, I will drive" pinal nyang sabi kaya wala na akong nagawa.

Mapayapa naman kaming nakarating sa Laguna is a soft driver actually. Pag ako kasi ang nagdridrive sobrang bilis lagi. Maybe I shouldn't do that....always.

"I have a meeting here and when it's done I will go to my house and get my car" sabi nya naman.

"I do too, I also have a meeting here"
Sabay turo ko sa malawak na restaurant.

Nauna syang pumasok kaya pumasok na rin ako. I entered the VIP room and there I saw some our clients.

Natapos ang meeting namin. It turned out well actually and I'm greatful for that.

"Thank you, I will be greatful working with you I the future" I said.

"We too, It such an honor Ma'am"
We shake hands and bid goodbyes.

I massage my head and walk outside. Then I remembered I was with Akiro here. I saw him in parking lot. My forehead creased when I saw he is with Klirton and Apollo.

"Bro, you're really are so whip! Hahaha how can you plan all of that just to be with Isa- Isabella!, Hey!" Nagulat pang bati ni Klirton ng makita ako. Agad naman napalingon sakin ang dalawa.

"Akala ko ba busy mga kaibigan mo?"
Taka kong tanong.

"Kami?, Busy?, no we're-"
Nagulat ako ng siniko ni Apollo si Klirton. Masama namang tumingin si Klirton sa Kaibigan ngunit binigyan sya nito ng makahulugang tingin na hindi ko maintindihan.

"I-I mean yeah hindi kami busy kasi sobrang busy namin" sabi ni Klirton at ngumiti saakin.

"Ah...huh, bakit nandito kayo kung busy kayo?" Para na tuloy akong investigator sa tinatanong ko sa kanila.

"We were just passing by when we saw Akiro" kalmadong sabi ni Apollo.

"Bu-"

"How's your meeting?"
Pagputol saakin ni Akiro. May itatanong pa sana ako.

"It turns out well, let's get going before it gets dark" sabi ko. Nagpaalam muna kami kila Klirton at Apollo.

"Bye, enjoy!"
Sigaw ni Klirton kaya napakunot ang noo kong tumingin sa kanya pero umiwas lang sya ng tingin at kumaway na lang. Ganon din si Apollo na kumakaway habang pili na nakangiti.

"Ang weird ng mga kaibigan mo 'no"
Bigla kung sabi.

"Everybody says that"
He said and chuckled.
