Alcantara's Dream

CHAPTER 8: The Reservation

[MILEY FRANCINE'S POV]

Its already 9 in the morning and I don't care if I'm damn late. Tsk. Anyway, while fixing myself again in front of my mirror, someone's calling...

"Hello?" I said in a cold tone after I pick up my iphone.

[Francine, you must have a meeting on a 15th of May with The Javiers. You may stay at La Javier Hotel if you want.]

"But-"

[No buts, Francine. Its just a business matter. The Javiers are one of our great business partners so don't disappoint them. Understood?]

"Yes, dad." I said in a bored tone then I ended our call.

I want to disobey because I don't want to go to a far place because 1st, for me its hassle. 2nd. My face might be haggard. And 3rd. That's all.

So, because of that f*cking appointment, I'll make a call witj La Javier Hotel.

[Good morning! La Javier Hotel. This is Ivy. How may I help you?] said by the receptionist.

"There's no good in morning. I'd like to make a reservation for the 3rd weekend in May. You must have vacancies." said I.

[Yes Ma'am, We have several rooms available for that particular weekend. And what is the exact date of your arrival?]

"On the 15th."

[How long will you be staying?]

"Mm.. 'cause I want to relax myself, I'll be staying for 2 nights."

[How many people is the reservation for?]

"Just me."

[And what is your preferred room?]

"I want a cabana."

[A/N: Ayon po sa Webster Dictionary ko po, hehe, Cabana is a noun that means a shelter at a beach or pool. Imaginin nyo na lang po, pagbukas nyo po ng pinto sa isang room, nasa gilid po yung single bed, lampshade, small table at kung anu-ano pa pong ka-ek-ekan at sa dulo po noon, may sliding glass door? Or door glass? Ah! Basta yun! With running water pa at pagbukas po ng pintong may tubig, may pool po sa labas! O, diba? Taray ni Cabana, seven!]

[Ok, Ma'am. Your room is 50,000 pesos per night. Now to what name will the reservation be listed under?]

"I am Miley Francine Alcantara."

[And is there a phone number where you can be contacted?]

"Yeah. 0912*******"

[Ok. Now, I'll need your credit card information to reserve a room for you. What type of card is it?]

"Visa. The number is *********"

[Alright, Ms. Alcantara, your reservation has been made for the fifteenth of May in a cabana. Check-in is at 7 pm. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to call us.]

"Ok."

[Its my pleasure to help you, Ma'am. We'll see you in May. Thank you for calling La Javier Hotel. Have a great day!]

*call ended*

[MILEY'S POV]

"WAAAAAAAAAAHH!!!"

Napabangon ako bigla dahil sa napanaginipan ko!

"HANURAW?! SA LA JAVIER?! AT KELAN PA DAW NAMIN SILA NAGING BUSINESS PARTNER, ABER?! HAYST! *yawns* Inaantok pa ako.. Hehe-"

*Kring! Kring! Kring!*

Oy. Yung de-keypad na cellphone ko yon, a?

"Yes, hello po?"

[Hi. Good morning. Vivian speaking. I'll just remind you that after 10 minutes, you will sign first at the lobby and after that, you may leave.]

"Ah.. Hehe. Ok po!"

*call ended*

Time check. 3:50 am.

Grabe! Time is gold pala ang tema ng school namin! Mayghad.

Sinunod ko na ang sinabi sa akin ni ate sexytary and ready to go home na! Gusto ko pa sana mag-stay kaso, wala akong maney (money) e hehehe.
