"Boss, it's already so late in the evening."

I woke up after hearing my assistant notify me of the time.

I didn't know that I fell asleep amidst my work.

I wipe my face in-case I got some saliva on my face, I then look at my assistant who's busy touching his phone at the couch.

"You may take your leave." I address as I noticed that he is already going to dozed up.

He then go out of the office.

I occupied my self with the additional works that's still need to be done until this day ends.

I stretched every inch of my joints and began to yawn.

I was feeling a refreshing feel as I stretched my body to the point that I began to do weird noises.

Despite those refreshing sensations, I was still restless to all vivid hallucinations I dreamed.

Even though I want to disregard what happened in my dream, I still see his face in a serious face with his body gestures.

-----------

It is now late in the evening as I leave my office due to workloads.

I did gain this position due to good luck and immense effort to the point that they entrusted this museum to me.

I didn't oppose the decision which I later on regretted. The owner of this museum is the current vice-president of this country which I couldn't just neglect on, and I didn't consider petrifying the business contract even though I could, at anytime.

Even though the position I got sounded so promising in the ears, I couldn't just neglect that it was a bad luck in disguise.

I walk through the hallway, there's still someone guarding this place which I also know.

I waved as I saw aunt Laudi as she venture out the corners of museum guarding the priceless paintings and figures.

On the other side there are guards who are securing the most valuable painting which is already sold to a billionaire.

I greeted them and I smiled warmly to aunt Laudi and she also do the same while holding my hand.

"You literally work hard anak, you should also take some rest. I already requested V-p to give you time to have a bond with your peers."

Aunt laudi greeted with a warm smile with clear intention.

I then responded politely,

"Although I do need rest auntie, I just need it to rest on my bed. No worries auntie, I still have time to go out and have fun.....without peers."

I then smile having no intention to widen the conversation.

"Go on anak, if that's what your planning, then I won't oppose."
She then Replied, "mag-ingat pauwi, always remember that even though your a man, you still have your weakness." She ended and kiss me at the cheek treating me as her own son.

"I will always remember that auntie."

It was a nice and healthy conversation which I treasure every time auntie talks to me sharing her wisdom.

As I step out the building, I was then greeted with chilling wind with some cozy noice of vehicles which only a few.

Every whip and murmur of the wind gives me a satisfying chill that was then gives me the urge to fall asleep.

I walk slowly while enjoying the sensation of the zephyr.

The stairs is a little bit stiff so it led me to pause each steps.

As I pass by each step, I recall all the memories and incidents happened while establishing this museum.

I recall me entering for the first time in this building under construction.

'I exhale'

'That was literally a hellish day'

I vaguely murmured.

I've seen a bench under the tree, I was stunned knowing it's already midnight and one man is still sitting on that chair.

I suddenly remember a man sitting on that chair every night just to see me off. But after remembering those memories my body temperature started to boil up.

I was filled with hatred, hatred a long time ago that keeps on building up. But I know that there is no point remembering those memories since I am living at the present.

My mind changed to sit on the bench beside that man and rather walk at the opposite site to find some taxi.

The phase of my speed fasten seeking for more rest as my feet started to feel burdens.

I was expecting for something to happened, but in the end... I am already laying on my bed.


-

I wake up moaning a loud sound.

"Ughh!"

I screamed after I felt my painful back. It might seem that I have a very hard night the other night.

I tried to wake up and sit.... BUT MY BODY WON'T LET ME!

my body is aweary!

I'm planning to take a rest today since it is Saturday, but many second thoughts wrap-up my mind and so strated to get up.

'you already endured so much bim, this is just nothing'

I persuadedly thought to lessen the pain... but it's still heavy!
