Nakatingin lang ako sa screen sa harap ko. Minsan binabasa ko ang mga papeles na nakalatag sa table ko. Nasa office ako ng dorm ko, while my husband is also in his office sa kabilang kwarto. Kasi naman, I still need to do my jobs. Yun nga, I am reviewing some reports na galing ni Brianna sa Selvetech. Meron kasing abirya sa budget for the launch of a new technology next month. She also came kanina and delivered me my books. Nagalit pa ang bruha dahil ginawa ko rawng PA, eh PA ko naman talaga ito before naging permanent ng position sa kompanya.

"Hey baby, you look glowing." and while I'm working, my team is on the other line dahil nag mumulti-tasking ako. It's 12 midnight, and yun nga sinabi ko kanina naman na 12 AM kami magmemeeting sa mga progress namin.

I lifted my face up ng marinig ang sinabi ni Danny. Ang daming alam nitong manyak nato.

"OMG girl, did you and –" I muted them. Kong ano na ang sinasabi. Alam na rin kasi nilang natatandaan ako ni Adrian. Mico obviously reported it awhile ago.

"Ehem." Nagulat ako ng marinig ang tinig ni Mike. I thought I muted this? Literal talagang kumunot ang noo ko at tumingin kay Mike. Seriously? This hacker? I cleared my troat before speaking again.

"So? Any worthwhile reports?" I asked. Tumahimik ang ibang linya. Sabi ko nga, ano namang mapapala namin, unang araw palang ito. Pero sana naman matapos to agad. As much as I want to study law, hindi ko naman alam kong para talaga to sa akin. And, its for a mission.

"Uhm, Mrs. Black just stayed home today. There's nothing special about it. Except she's a very demanding woman." Allana answered. Tumango-tango nalang ako.

"I agree. She kept scolding their helpers. Mabuti nalang, I knew how to control such people. Kaya hindi kami nasaling ma-api ni Allana." Bea continued, kita ko pa ang pangigigil nito. Oo nga, Mrs. Black is a typical rich woman madam. Matapobre, pasosyal at mukhang pera. While the husband is the kind, caring and humanitarian type of person. Yun ang sabi nila.

Buti nalang si Sweet, sa ama namana ang ugali. Hindi sa ina.

"Well for us, nakakapagod. Palagi nalang may lakad. But, nothing suspicious. You?" Danny said.

"Well, I was able to meet Sweet today. She's... sweet." I said. Sabi ko nga, it's just the first day so wala masyadong ganap.

"Danny, Ash, I need you to know everything about her father. Something that would make this mission interesting. I know that he is the gentleman that they claim to be, but every good image has a bad secret. I need you to know that. That may connect with everything else." sabi ko.

"And for the ladies, keep observing her. Her facade is interesting." I smiled. Bea grinned. I think she knows what to do. I think she knows what I mean.

"I have news." Mico on the other side finally spoke. Tumingin ako sa kanya.

"SPARKS is invited for a mall show this Saturday. You need to go."

"WHAT?" Bea reacted. Well, thanks Bea for blurting such a reaction, kaya no need na akong mag reac.

It's been like a year since we did shows. The last show was last year on Coachella, then we had a hiatus. But now, Mico suddenly accepted such an invitation?

"Yes, it's good money." Umirap nalang ako. Pag talaga pera ang galing ng manager namin sa SPARKS.

"Cous, ba't ngayon? Is this really a good time for a show?" Tanong ko. Did he consult this with the Heads? Our plates are already full.
