"Sir, you have a twelve o'clock meeting with the Japanese investors, the cruise ship is ready for your inspection, President Consunji will talk to you later about the results of the board meeting last week, at 2:00 you have ---"
"Can you just tell me the details later? I'm bored."
Bagaman nakangiti ako sa Owel – my assistant, I was feeling a bit irritated. Ayoko ng narararamdaman ko. Hanggang ngayon ay si Sheena pa rin ang naiisip ko at lalo akong nakakaramdam ng frustration because I can't have her yet! Dammit. I took a deep breath as I walk in the middle of the hallway inside the Consunji Empires' building. Nasa kanan ko si Owel, he was my trusted personal assistant since I started working at the company, on my left was Ickos, my body guard. I could hear him saying:
"The hawk has landed. Be ready."
I rolled my eyes, ano bang meron sa codename? I was the hawk, Lukas was the eagle and my grandma was the sparrow – mula nang may mangyaring gulo sa mansyon almost two months ago, mas lalong hinigpitan ang security sa bahay. Lola doesn't want any intruders again. Lahat ng tauhan ng pamilya ay sinilip ang back ground. Nag-iingat na kaming lahat ngayon, ayaw ko nang maulit ang nangyari kay Jane at kay Robert noon – tama na iyong isang beses na muntik nang mapahamak ang buong pamilya ko.
"Sir, you're ten am is ready." Narinig kong wika ni Owel, I just looked at him. I continued walking – alam kong pinapapunta na niya ako sa conference room pero hindi ako doon dumiretso – I am the general manager – I can make other people wait. As I walk towards my office, my eye caught a familiar figure, agad akong lumingon and I saw Sheena standing inside her cubicle. I watched her every, she was just standing inside that four walled cubicle, arranging the files, her hair was following her every moves, she was wearing a creamy white blouse topped with a blue blazer. Lumabas siya sa cubicle and again, I had the opportunity of seeing those great legs of her again. I took a deep breath. My need for her was primal, if I don't have her sooner, I'll go crazier and wilder.
My brows furrowed when I saw her talking to some guy. Sheena smiled at him, tapos ay tinaggap nito ang kapeng binigay nito sa kanya. Nakadama ako ng galit nang makita kong tinapik ng lalaking iyon ang braso ni Sheena after that, Sheena left, she waved back at the man who gave her the coffee. I smirked.
"You." Tinawag ko ang atensyon niya. Napatingin siya sa akin. Ngiting-ngiting lumapit siya sa direksyon ko.
"General Manager, good morning." He even greeted me. Tiningnan ko siya mula ulo hanggang paa.
"You're fired."
Wala akong pakialam sa reaksyon niya. Nilagpasan ko siya at saka tinungo ang opisina ko. I heard him called me pero hindi ko siya nilingon. I have made my mark on Sheen at wala nang ibang pwedeng humawak sa kanya – ako lang. Lahat ng hahawak sa kung anong akin, dapat lang mawala sa landas ko.
"Sir, your ten am is here."
"Cancel all my appointments today." Mariing sabi ko. Hindi naman kumibo si Owel. I looked at him, palabas na siya ng pinto ng tawagin ko siya.
"Owel, look for Ms. Ybarra, I want to see her." Sabi ko sa kanya.
"Si Sheena, Sir?" Tanong niya sa akin, napatiim ang bagang ko.
"From now on, you will call her Ms. Ybarra. Naintindihan mo?" I asked in a very dangerous tone. Owel knew that tone so he just nodded, lumabas siya ng pinto at naiwan ako sa opisina ko nang nag-iisa.
