Jump Then Fall

Long Sleeves (2)

He woke up, extending his arm to the other side of the bed. He's alone, as usual. He then lift his head to check if his long sleeves were on the couch, it was, neatly folded. He checked the time and it was 6:30am. He got up and made himself a cup of coffee and his usual 15-minute garlic bread. Then, he took a bath and got dressed. His security was probably waiting outside his door with the security to pick him up.

In the two years of being the country's President, Bongbong was secretly living alone in his spacious bachelor condo unit. Only his security, his secretary, Irene, and Leni only knew the exact location of his property.

"Good morning, Sir!" Jessa, his secretary bowed a bit.

He just nodded and walked past her. She followed him in an instant, going through with his schedule for the day.

"Can you keep this?" Bongbong asked Jessa as they took the private elevator going down.

Jessa frowned, opening her palm. "Uh yes po sir."

"Thanks." He said, fixing his usual short sleeve barong.

Jessa was quite confused of why he has it in the first place. She shrugged and put it inside her pocket.

He was sight seeing through the window of his Rolls Royce as he travelled to his first speaking engagement of the day, suddenly, he noticed that he's passing by the street where the Museo ng Pag-asa is. His head automatically turned when his car passed by the open gates of the museum.

He saw Leni.

Hugging Kit Belmonte.

He just shrugged. She probably accompanied Kit up to his car because he's already leaving the office after a quick visit.

He wore his sunglasses and best smile as he went down the car. He started to wave and shook hands with people including some government officials. He's about to distribute farm equipment and financial aid.

"Magandang araw po, Mr. President!" Sec. Francisco, the Agriculture Secretary shook hands with him.

Bongbong shook hands and greeted everyone who's there in stage with him.

"Mukhang maganda talaga ang araw natin sir ah!" The Secretary noticed when Bongbong occupied his seat.

Bongbong just chuckled. "Maayos naman sec."

"Naku! Baka dahil yan sa love life, sir! Mukhang may napupusuan ka ng first lady." Sec. Francisco teased.

It's been circulating around social media that Bongbong is dating the Agriculture Department's Assistant Secretary.

Bongbong just laughed. "Updated ka sec! Bilib din ako sa'yo."

Francisco laughed along, "Well, sabihin na natin sir na alam ko ang nangyayari sa department ko."

Bongbong just laughed. "Naku! Next time na dadalaw ako sa DA i-sesecret ko nalang. Baka mahuli mo 'ko."

"Support kita sir kung saan ka masaya! Okay yun si Asec. Joyce, maganda, mabait, matalino, maayos pa mag trabaho. Bagay na bagay kayo nun sir!" Francisco gave a thumbs up.

"Boss, malelate ka na!" Kit shouted after checking the time.

He went to Leni's condo to pick her up. He knew where the extra key was so he was able to get in. He entertained himself by watching some Netflix shows while waiting for her to come down.

"Ito na!" It was Leni, going down the stairs.

"Woww! Ganda! Parang 57 lang!" Kit jested.

Leni laughed, hitting Kit's arm. "Loko-loko! Tara na nga!"
