One Night Stand With My Boss [HIATUS]

CHAPTER EIGHT: Mysterious Guy

     Napabaling ang tingin ko kay Sir. Gustavo ng marinig ang malalim na pagbuntong hininga nito.

He was quite unfocused since we came back earlier. Bakas din ang pagka frustrated sa mukha niya na tila ba may kung ano na namang gumagambala sa isipan niya.

Perhaps‚ maybe it was because of what happened at the restaurant earlier.

Hindi ko tuloy maiwasang maguilty. Sinabi niya pa naman na important client ‘yong ime-meet niya which is si Mr. Park.

So that means losing Mr. Park was also a lost to GUSTAVO's company.

I wanted to apologize to Sir. Gustavo and Mr. Park but i don’t know where should I start‚ isa pa hindi ko alam ‘yong e-mail ni Mr. Park.

At paano naman ako makakapag apologize kay Sir. Gustavo? Nakakatakot kaya ang itsura ng mukha niya‚ kahit gwapo siya ay nakakatakot ang awra ng mukha niya kapag galit siya.

  Napabusangot ako.

I think I should learn more about the rules of being his secretary. After all ayoko namang matanggal‚ ‘yong sweldo ko malaking tulong na iyon para sa aming dalawa ni ate.

“Ms. Morales.”

Napabalik ako sa ulirat ng marinig ang pagtawag ni Sir. Gustavo saakin.

Nag-angat ako ng tingin dito. “Po?” I remain seated as I answer him.

  “Bring this file to Ms. Flores‚ tell her to check the data regarding to this file then after she finish it quickly submit the final result to me.” seryosong saad nito.

   Napatayo ako at agad na naglakad patungo sa gawi niya. Kinuha ko sa ibabaw ng lamesa iyong files at akmang aalis na sana ng magsalita ito.

“And....” he suddenly stop talking.

Napatingin ako sa kaniya dahil doon at ganoon na lang ang gulat ng mapagtantong nakatingin din ito saakin.

  But I was more surprised when he avoided his gaze first.

Napahawak ito sa necktie niya at bahagyang niluwagan iyon.  “..after you bring it to Ms. Flores‚ you can take your lunch.” he said without even looking at me.

  Ah‚ akala ko naman ay kung ano na ang sasabihin niya eh.

Bahagya akong ngumiti.“Noted po‚ Sir.” I answered before walking throughout the door.

        VLADIMIR POINT OF VIEW

I gently let go of my necktie after loosening it a bit. I looked up at Feleshia who was currently walking towards the elevator.

I kept looking at her until she finally disappeared from my sight. When I was sure that she had really left, I slightly leaned my back and head on the swivel chair.

   I looked up at the ceiling‚ releasing a heavy sigh.

I clenched my fist and slightly closed my eyes to calm myself down.

“Your being too obvious! Vladimir‚ your.....being too obvious.” I whispered at the air.

I act recklessly earlier. Perhaps‚ that make her more awkward. She didn’t even say any words since we came back.

 
  Did I make things even worse for us?

Wait‚ what? US?

  Napaayos ako ng upo‚  when I realize I was thinking of her again.

Napabuntong hininga ako.“Focus...”

I don’t need to think about her‚ okay?

Napatingin ako sa may pinto ng magbukas iyon. My face immediately turned serious when I saw Ysmael.
