Game Of Love

Meet the Queen of Amazons

"Pwede ka ba maaya na mag-..."

"NO."

"Hi, Would you like some-...."

"NO."

Tsk. Pang-ilang nag-aya na ba tong unggoy na to? Tsk. Diba nila naiisip na I'm very busy at the moment and I need to finished these papers before the deadline. Bago pa man makalapit ang isa pang asungot, tumayo na ko sa chair ko at dire-diretsong lumakad papunta sa place ni Aira. I don't have time for them.

"Oh! Bat nakabusangot yang mukha mo? Tanghali pa lang oh?"

"Tsk. Ikaw ba naman mapalibutan ng mga asungot maging masaya ka kaya? Shit. They're getting on my nerves" napahawak pa ako sa sentido ko.

"Hahaha. Ikaw ba naman maging dyosa eh hahaha. Let's go. Maglunch na tayo ng mabawasan yang pagkaasar mo. Baka gutom lang yan."

Naglakad kami ng sabay papunta sa elevator. Aira is my classmate since college. She is'nt my bestfriend but she is my buddy since I worked in this company. I am working as a marketing officer in this publishing house owned by my hopeless romantic Aunt. Yeah, she is a romance writer kaya naisipan niya magtayo ng publishing house. Di siya basta basta dahil she is bigtime famous in this industry. Someday, I want to be successful like her.

"Cappuccino please and a slice of strawberry cake."

"Zari, yan lang ang kakainin mo? Don't tell me it's part of your diet? Grabe."

"No. I never on a diet. Nagheavy breakfast kasi ako kanina and it just happened na I'm still full."

"Grabe talaga siya oh. Hahaha. Kaya most of the boys sa company may gusto sayo e. You have all."

"I don't have money para ilibre ka. Hahaha."

"Maam, is it okay kung mauuna pong maiserve yung cake po. Nagkaproblem po kasi yung coffee machine namin and magtatake po ito ng 10 minutes. Okay lang po ba?"

"Sige. I'll just wait. Pakiserve na lang sa table namin."

After 10 minutes.

Tsk. Late na ako. First day sa trabaho, bad impression agad. Hay. I hate mondays. Yesterday is a very tiring day, you know, hirap maging hot at handsome at the same time."

"Cappucino for table 3."

Ayon. Igagrab ko na yun bago pa makarating sa table na yon. I need that drink immediately.

"Wait. Waiter! I have that order" sigaw ko sa waiter.

"What the! That's mine!" sigaw ng isang chikababe.

Hmm, siguro nga siya ang nagorder pero I know na ibibigay niya rin sakin yon with the use of my oozing charisma.

"Babe, I'll just give you my payment for that. Kailangan ko na kasi. Wait, tell me your number and I'll call you for my expression of gratitude" sabi ko sa kanya habang nakaakbay with matching wink pa.

"Oh really?" she said while smiling at me, sabi na nga ba walang tatalo sa charisma ko.

But then,

Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhh! Ouch! Ang sakit. INIKOT NIYA ANG BRASO KONG NAKAAKBAY AT INAPAKAN ANG PAA KO NG MATINDI.

"Bumili ka ng sarili mo! Ang kapal ng mukha nito! That's my order and it's not my fault if you need it badly. Umorder ka magisa mo. Besides, I don't give my number to a playboy, maniac jerk like you. Asshole!"

Kinuha niya yung coffee at ininom ng diretso pagtapos nilukot yun at inapakan sa harap ko.

"Aira, let's go" sabi niya at may lumapit na isang babae.

Tumingin siya sakin at sinigawan ako.

"TAAABBBIIII."

Whatda! What's wrong with this girl?
