"Many people come here to Masasa Beach. Tourists, vacationing families, solo vacations, or mga couples. And out of three resorts here, Ang Kian Resort ang pinaka malaki at pinaka dinadayuan ng mga tao."


We are having a meeting, the manager of the resort alongside the marketing team is with us. I thought we would be at some exclusive room pero nandito kami sa isa sa mga restaurants ng Kian Resort. It's an open restaurant, where from far to my left, you see the view of the sea, to my right, ang makikita ko na lang ay ang gawi ng lugar na ito.


Napatango tango si Ma'am Jaki sabay kain ng pasta niya. Nag aya kasi itong Manager na kumain na lang habang nag me-meeting. So that we won't feel bored and distracted from the beautiful view of the place.

As for my case, naka focus sana ako sa lamesa namin ngunit nang lumipad ang tingin ko sa kung saan, tuluyan kong naiwan saglit ang atensyon sa meeting at napunta sa lalakeng umakyat ng restaurant kung saan narito kami.


Tatlong hakbang kasi ang gagawin mo para makaakyat dito sa restaurant, there's no door. As I've said, it's open and doesn't have walls at all. Nakadisenyo lang ng mga woods and pillars na siyang may puting kurtina rin. Pag gabi naman ay batid kong gaganda parin ang itsura nito. I can see some fairy light and fairy light bulbs from the ceiling, then circling around the resto.

Binati siya ng mga nag s'serve roon. He's wearing his shades and then he removed it to place it on his collar habang ngumingiti sa mga trabahador at bumati pabalik. It's the guy that I saw earlier this morning doon banda sa dagat. I swear he's so familiar, hindi ko talaga maalala kung saan ko siya nakita o nakasalubong.


Iniwas ko na ang tingin ko sakanya nang umupo siya sa bakanteng lamesa at tumingin sa menu. I don't even care at all if he's with someone. I'm not that very curious about him, I'm just confused on why he seems so familiar to me.

"Maganda din kasi ang lugar dito. Plus, marunong din mag market tong mga tauhan dito. Another plus, the services here are good! And the things we have here are always unique and comfortable to use. Mapa sofa, beach chairs, the rooms... We think it's best for the customers, do we not?"


Napangiti at napatango kami sa Manager. Maging si Ma'am Jaki ay nagagalak sa success ng report ng tauhan dito sa resort. Mukhang wala na kaming poproblemahin kung sakaling mag rereport kami pabalik ng kumpanya, the people here know their work. No need to guide them at all.



That night tri-neat kami ni Ma'am Jaki for dinner. Tuwang tuwa naman yung tatlo habang ako ay nahiya nung una. Ma'am Jaki is nice, but when it comes to work, she's very professional.

I remained quiet and just listened to their nonstop conversation. About work, about personal life, about random topics. Nag kakasiyahan at nag tatawanan din sila, lalo na't nakikisalamuha din si Ma'am Jaki like a normal barkada. Napangiti na lang ako roon kasi parang nag va-vacation lang talaga kami.



Napatigil lang sila saglit sa pag uusap when five servers went to our table at naglapag ng banana sundaes sa bawat harap namin. Napakunot ang noo ko roon, kasi hindi kami nag order ng ganito.

"Excuse me, maling table po yata ang sinerve niyo," Ma'am Jaki spoke for us

"Ah hindi po, Ma'am. It's in the house. Inorder po ni Sir DKH para sainyo. He learned that you're here for business." Sagit ng isa sa mga nag serve saamin

DKH?

Nakita kong nanlaki ang mga mata ni Ma'am Jaki sabay ayos ng pag upo.


"Nandito siya? Oh! Thank you so much... Where is he? mag papasalamat lang," She sounded nervous but at the same time, she looks like she's somehow delighted.
