Two Hearts, One Rhythm

Chapter 21

"Miss Frontera, here's the documents you requested earlier. Attached are the necessary information that came from different markets regarding the acquisition of the drugs provided by the company. Also, naisama ko na rin po in a separate folder ang documents na kailangan ng pirma niyo." My secretary informed me.

Hinilot ko ang temple ko because of the way she approached me. I am not taking it against her because she's just doing her job, and she's so good at it, pero my gosh! Ang aga aga pa, 'yan ang salubong sa akin!

"Yes, thank you for these. I'll study all these and I'll call you when I need something. When's the deadline for my signature pala?" I asked.

"There's no given deadline, miss. But, as soon as possible, siguro po."

I nodded and started reading the documents on my table. "Okay, thank you again. Iyon lang ba?"

"Yes, miss. Remind ko na rin po ang meeting mamaya."

"Sige. I'll call you when I need something. You can go now."

"Thank you po, miss." Pasalamat niya habang yinuko bahagya ang ulo bago maglakad palabas ng office ko.

I immediately brought my hands to my face and gently massaged it. I puffed out a huge breath of air while doing so.

It has been weeks since I got this job, at ramdam na ramdam ko na agad ang authority na napunta sa akin. Yes, the job position is gratifying because it's on an executive level, but the stress that comes along with it was palpable!

Hihinga pa lang ako, kailangan na agad ng presensya ko! Uupo pa lang ako, kailangan ko na agad pumunta sa meeting room!

I admit that I feel the satisfaction of doing this job, dahil siguro mahilig ako sa mga bagay na may malaking halaga, pero the behind the scenes of this were stressful!

It was a good thing because the board of directors never fails to compliment me on how I handle the company. Nagmana raw ako kila daddy sa galing sa trabaho, kaya mas nagpursigi ako mag work nang bongga!

Pinalaki akong spoiled nila mommy, pero marunong pa rin naman ako magpakumbaba dahil arrogance won't get me anywhere.

Thankfully din, my father got the company adviser role because matanda na rin ang adviser ng company. Kaya I'm somehow confident about my choices and decisions for the company because my dad will guide me along the way.

While studying the papers, I can't help but miss my Kai. I pouted.

Ang tagal na rin ng huling kita naming dalawa. He's busy with his job, being a photographer slash photojournalist can be a heavy work din dahil ubos ang oras ni Kai sa akin at sa iba. Plus, he travels to different places pa.

Gusto ko ngang magreklamo, pero hijo de puta, busy din naman ako!

I don't want to seem clingy din sa kanya kaya I divert my longing for him by reading papers and attending different executive meetings. I'm doing a good job at that...so far.

Sinabi rin naman niya na I should focus on my work. Bilang masunurin sa kanya, of course, I'm doing it.

Speaking of my love, my phone beeped.

Kai Aiden lang <3:

I won't ask you if you're busy, because I'm sure you are. But, do you have enough time to see me today?

I smiled and started typing my reply.

Me:

My time depends on the agenda.

Kai Aiden lang <3:

I miss you so much. Will that serve as a sufficient agenda?

Paimpit akong napatili sa loob ng office ko. Halos ibalibag ko na nga ang papers na hawak ko sa lamesa dahil sa nadarama ngayon.
