Kabanata 9
Dress
I dim my light, katatapos ko lang mag shower. Malapit na kami sa bahay saka uli bumuhos ang malakas na ulan. I thank him, I don't know if he heard it because of the rain. But I did thank him ok!?
I was occupied with my work earlier that I didn't notice a bunch of messages from Nathan. It was sent hours ago, nung dumating kami ni frank sa restaurtant para sa meeting.
Nathan
ALLYSON! IS THAT YOUUU!!??
OMFG GIRL!!
You and....FRANK?
Frank Santiago!
Shit! Are you in trouble?
You missed a call from Nathan
Nanlamig ako sa mga nabasa ko, he thinks I'm in trouble because kasama ko si frank! He even called!? My phone is silent the whole time dahil ayoko maabala ang meeting at trabaho. I know I'm not a regular worker but I want to be professional. Working in their company isn't a joke.
Ang dami pa nyang message at tawag na hindi ko nasagot
Nathan
You missed a call from Nathan
You missed a call from Nathan
Allyson, sagutin mo ang tawag
Do you need a help?
I have a date but fuck girl, you are more important
Ginambala ka ba nya after nung nangyari sa bar?
You missed a call from Nathan
Call me back ASAP! Once you read this.
Iyon ang huling message nya sa akin.
I panicked, mabilis ko syang tinawagan. I don't know kung anong iniisip nya sa mga oras na iyon. But I know for sure he's worried.
2 rings and the call was answered immediately
"Allyson!!" inilayo ko ang cellphone sa tenga ko
"H-hey.. uhm"
"Took you an hour to call me back! Anong nangyari? Bakit kasama mo si frank? Nag sumbong ba? Pinaparusahan ka ba? Ano ally---"
Hindi ko na kinaya ang sunod sunod nyang tanong, pinutol ko agad sasabihin nya
"Nathan! Calm down."
"How am I supposed to---"
"I'm fine, okay?" natahimik sya saglit sa sagot ko
"Oh, baket kayo mag kasama kanina, aber!?" aniya
I don't know how to explain this... dapat ay nasa Bulacan na ako ngayon para sa bakasyon, but here I am working in their company
"Uhm.. h-hindi ko alam paano ko papaliwanag nath e.."
"Let me guess... he forced you to work with him to pay dun sa ginawa mo sakanya sa bar" aniya na para bang sanay sya sa galawan ng mga mayayaman. No doubt, he's rich.
Umiling ako bago mag salita "Hindi..."
Pero napaisip ako doon.... Possible nga na ganun ang plano nya?? Did he ask her mom na sabihan si mama na pag trabahuhin ako sa kompanya nila?
Ano naming gagawin nya? O balak nya? Pahirapan ako? Pagudin? Well if yes, then... he's plan is working. Unang araw ko sa trabaho ay madami agad sya pinapagawa.
