On His Roster (Aviación #1) Completed

55

Touch

Even though I'm not excited to see Andrea again, we still need to act professionally at work. The day I hoped would never arrive has arrived. Today, Deuce and Andrea will be rostered with me.

I made Dinara reschedule her flight for today as well because I was so scared and wanted someone to accompany me. Stories about Andrea and Deuce have been going around lately, and some coworkers who despise me even ventured to compare me to that weird girl.

"You know girls who are obsessed about the man they idolized they tend to hate the girl in his real life. They hate because you got the man they want for themselves." My friend cheered me up while we walk through the hallway.

"Yeah and it sounded like i am one of those girls right now cause i am hating on Andrea so much,"

Saglit kaming lumiko sa banyo para makapag ayos muna. Walang tao sa banyo kaya kompyansa na making chismis si Dinara sa akin.

"Of course that girl doesn't count!"

"But the narrative lately says otherwise,"

"The reason these envious girls are attempting to pit you against Andrea is because she's taking a chance on stealing him from you, something they are unable to accomplish. Thus, they are encouraging her to take him away from you."

Inayos ko ang suot na lipstick at nag reapply para perfect ang kulay pula sa hugis ng aking labi. I took an initiative to make my own struggle private as much as possible so how come this Andrea girl is making herself look pitiful in the eyes of our colleagues.

Like i am the bitch in the story, she's making it looked like i am trying to hook with two men and am stealing what's hers. "Sincerely, it's funny and unsettling how they created a Derby for Deuce when, in reality, he hardly talks about his personal life."

Hindi pa nakatulong na manatiling pribado ang buhay niya dahil sa nangyari sa Maldives naging matunog ang kaniyang pangalan lalo na sa trabaho, iba ay nag aalala ang iba naman ay may mga haka haka sa kung anong nangyari sa aming grupo roon sa isla.

No one talked or answered about Maldives, except Andrea. Siya lahat ang may pakana sa mga haka haka na to dahil sa mga pinagsasabi niya na siguradong misleading.

Harap harapan pa akong pinaparinggan ng iba na pinagsawaan lang daw ako ni Deuce, na phase lang iyon at flavor of the week lang ako, na hindi talaga seryoso iyon at landian lang.

Siguro dahil hindi rin naman kami nagsasalita ni Deuce tungkol doon at mas pinili naming sarilihik lang ang kung anong meron sa aming dalawa sa mga panahon na iyon.

At dahil ang ingay ni Andrea ngayon nag mumukha pa na talagang big deal iyon. Some women cheered for her and hated me in the process.

"But our circle knows the truth, Av. Andrea can't say anything in private because she knows where to stand. She's noisy here at work because she can gather attention from the other people around us,"

"And Deuce obviously keeps his mouth shut," napairap ako at dismayado na inayos ang mga gamit. Dismayado dahil sa patuloy na paninira ni Andrea sa akin. She moves like a snake, you know. Alam kong tahimik at palihim siyang umaatake.

"Don't worry about her. Nathan knew about what's she was doing so it's just best for everyone to keep her out of the group now,"

As soon as we finished touching up in the restroom, we got ready for takeoff. I'm currently seeing him face to face for the first time, and I'm not sure how to behave around him.

Hindi naman sa umaasa ako na magkausap kami rito lalo na at focus kaming dalawa sa aming trabaho. It seems like everyone is trying to keep me out of the cockpit and far away from him. A few members of the cabin crew went to the flight deck to make requests, and we are all too busy with our work-related duties.
