Irene told me na dapat sabay kami ngayong umaga pero hindi ko siya sinunod. Baka kasi may makakita samin sa parking lot ng building, ayoko pa matanggal sa trabaho.
I'm checking her schedule today nang biglang bumukas ang pintuan.
"Miss Charlie?"
"Good morning Czarina, I brought you a cupcake and coffee"
Eh? I already had my breakfast sa unit ko.
"Thanks miss pero sa inyo na lang yan, mamaya pa pong 9 yung meeting niyo with ma'am Irene" sagot ko
I saw her smile disappeared
"You keep on rejecting me ah, pinagbawalan ka ba ng boss mo na mag entertain ng investors?"
"Hindi po, busog na kasi ako miss"
"Is that so? Sayang naman, can I eat here though?"
Hindi pa ako nakakasagot ay dumating si Irene.
"There's a cafeteria and pantry area in every floors of our building miss Lee, this is my office"
Miss Charlie looked at Irene as if nang aasar na naman siya.
Hay eto na naman tayo eh.
Napayuko na lang ako kasi alam kong mag sasagutan lang sila.
"Oh please Louise, you can join me since Czarina turned me down ulit"
"No, I don't want you here inside my office so please leave"
Feeling ko maririnig ko yung sigaw ni Irene ngayong umaga.
"But-"
"Okay I will leave then"
Agad akong napatingin kay Irene. She took her laptop from her table and went outside.
Nataranta na ako kaya hindi ko na pinansin si miss Charlie, Irene's walking fast but I caught her wrist kasi nga ang liit ng steps niya eh.
"Let's go back, it's your office ma'am" sabi ko
"Tss I don't want to lose my temper on that girl Czari" bulong niya
Agad akong ngumiti ng palihim, she's too cute.
"Alright ako na ang kakausap sa kanya, let's go na"
Her expression softened when I squeezed her hand slightly.
"F-Fine, just don't get too close to her. I don't like you being with her"
"Okay po ma'am" biro ko
Nauna na akong bumalik sa office, nakasunod lang sakin si Irene. I saw miss Charlie sitting on the couch.
"Miss Charlie"
She looked at me and smiled.
"Yes?"
"Can you please go to another place? This is ma'am Irene's office, she needs to work also. Hindi po siya makakapag focus kung andito kayo" pakiusap ko
"Aww ang sensitive naman ng boss mo"
"I also need to work too"
Medyo naiinis na ako sa kanya, ang kulit eh. Kung hindi siya nang aasar edi sana nakapag check na ako ng emails.
Mukha namang nakaramdam siya ng hiya, kinuha niya ang cupcake at coffee.
"S-Sorry for interrupting you, I just wanted to hangout with you" sabi nito
Agad siyang lumabas ng office, now I feel bad.
"She likes you"
Lumingon ako sa aking likuran at nakita si Irene na sinara ang pintuan.
