Chapter 36

Athalia's POV

"So he's an engineer?" tanong ko kay Devantara habang nakatitig sa laptop screen niya. We are currently inside the HQ monitoring room.

It's a room, where all the security camera footage is being continuously monitored inside and outside HQ campus.

"Yes senyora. Hindi mo alam?"

"Tatanungin ba kita kung alam ko?" pambabara ko na ikinatawa niya habang umiiling.

Hindi ko talaga alam at wala akong balak alamin. Sinunod ko lang ang sinabi sa akin ni Fernan na layuan siya at huwag masyadong lumapit.

I decided to just focus on the deal I made with him and stay away, regardless of what I really felt.

I was left baffled and confused by his academic journey, as he had taken ABM in his senior high school years, it appeared contradicting that he had managed to enter a course that was more science-oriented and STEM-aligned.

"How could it be possible?"

"It would be a challenging process, but it is not impossible to accomplish."

Napatango ako dahil doon at tumitig sa screen ng laptop na ginagamit niya nang may maisip.

"Alam mo ba kung saan ang site na pinagtratrabahuan niya?" tanong ko.

Rinig ko ang pagtikhim ni Devantara at nakita ko kung paano niya ako binigyan ng side-eye.

"Stalker ka na ha," sabi niya habang nakangisi ng nakakaloko.

"Ulol," sabi ko na ikinahalakhak niya. Binalingan niya muli ang screen ng laptop at nagsimulang magtipa ng kung ano.

Hindi rin nagtagal at may lumabas na article tungkol sa isang new building construction sa may Marikina. Mall iyon at nakasulat na si Caleb ang head engineer at ang schedule nila.

Tumaas ang isang kilay ko at kinuhanan ito ng picture.

"Ano kasi ang plano mo senyora?" tanong ni Devantara at uminom ng tubig.

"Agawin siya." simpling saad.

Bigla niyang naibuga ang iniinom na tubig sa laptop niya at agad naman itong nagpanic at pinunasan.

Hindi makapaniwalang tinignan niya ako pagkatapos niya linisin ang tubig na kumalat sa desk niya.

"Seryoso?!" gulat na aniya.

I nodded simply.

"Damn this woman." rinig kong bulong niya sa sarili.

He opened his laptop and sighed in relief when it opened. May kung ano ulit siyang tinipa rito bago siya nag-tsked.

"Single daw siya." aniya at ipinakita sa akin ang profile information niya sa Facebook.

"So ano ang aagawin mo?" nagtatakang tanong niya.

I narrowed my eyes and scanned Caleb's profile information flashed on the screen. Nakalagay nga doon sa status niya na single siya, iyon ang ipinagtataka ko.

Devantara was browsing through Caleb's facebook feed with some curiosity. There wasn't much that we could see, as there weren't any featured pictures of him or his girlfriend.

The only thing I noticed was a profile picture of the side view of his face with a beach background.

"Its okay. This information is enough for me. Thanks Elkairo." I tapped his shoulder and left the room.

I glanced at my wrist watch and smirked when their lunch break time is almost near. I am currently parked outside the site where Caleb is working.

Hindi ko mapigilang mapangiti habang iniisip kung ano ang magiging reaksyon niya kapag makita ako.
