The next morning, I prepared so hard. I took my time showering, and I made sure that my collared shirt and pants were perfect. I am sure I will see her again today. At balak kung mamalagi lang sa restaurant maghapon.
Nagbuga ako ng hangin pagkatapos kung ayusin ang buhok ko. I gathered my things for work and I planned to work all day long at my reserved table. The west wing was already reserved to me until I finished my business here.
Arnold just arrived last night and I just need him to handle some things for me while I work. I am planning to buy lands here and I need him to do the initial checkings and processing.
I went out, locked my door and saw Arnold coming out of the elevator. Kaagad niya akong linapitan.
"Good morning, Sir." He greeted me while I just nodded at him.
We entered the elevator and the nervousness that I am feeling heightened more. I can't help but check myself again with my reflection in the elevator. I made sure I looked clean and decent but my nervousness is taking me over.
At nang bumukas na ito ay para na akong natuod. We both went out but before we could even enter the resto, I signalled him to stop. I stopped walking and looked at Arnold in my back.
I looked at him for a second. "Is my outfine fine today?" Hindi ko na mapigilan na magtanong. I am just so anxious.
He looked at me confused but he still looked at me from head to toe. "Yes, Sir. May problema po ba?"
Kaagad akong umiling. I breathed in deeply again as the security guard greeted and opened the door for us. My eyes scan the whole area and so far she isn't here. Kaagad akong ang nakaramdam ng pagkadismaya, but she might be in the kitchen right now.
My eyes continued scanning the whole place when a staff member approached us. "Good morning, Sir Sandro. I am Wisnton, the General manager. You will be occupying the west wing and it is already reserved for you, Sir."
I only nodded at him. He guided us in the west veranda and it was completely empty. It is breakfast time and the resto was quite packed but I am all alone here. I sat down while Arnold occupied the other table. My eyes went back inside again looking for her, but still no avail. My eyes became uneasy.
"Okay, Sir. First thing first…" My eyes went back again to the general manager. "Sir, since you will be staying here for a long time, I would like to recommend a personal server."
I furrowed my brows. "Personal server?" I don't need that.
He smiled and nodded at me. "Yes, Sir. He or she will only be working for your entire stay here, and you can also request a meal plan, Sir."
Nanatiling kunot ang noo ko. If I have a personal server then how can I approach her? I felt like her, serving me would be my only option so that I could talk to her and open up things. Iiling na sana ako ng may pumasok na ideya sa akin.
What if she will be my personal server then? Sa akin lang siya magtratrabaho? Her priority would be me!
"Sir, I would recommend you a personal server. Sevie Alexandria, one of our waitresses, has been working with us for a long time and I am sure she will do an excellent job, Sir."
Kaagad akong napalunok nang banggitin niya ang taong nasa isipan ko. My eyes also went wide but I quickly fixed my expression. Ramdam ko rin bigla ang panginginig ng kalamnan ko at pagbabara ng lalamunan ko.
I cleared my throat as I avoided his eyes. "If that's what you say…" I tried so hard to make my voice firm as I looked at him again.
"Pero wala po siya ngayon, she is on a day off and in the meantime, I'll just assign others."
