One of my friends invited me para magshopping but I texted her na hindi ko sya masamahan dahil busy ako.
Wala rin naman akong oras para magsaya at magwaldas ng pera ngayong marami kaming hinaharap na problema ng pamilya ko.
"Ma'am ito na po lahat ng kailangan niyo. " sabi ng sekretarya ni papa.
Nandito ako ngayon sa office ni dad dahil ako muna ang papalit sa kanya habang nagpapagaling sya. He was confined in the hospital and he needs to rest.
This is his second time and the doctor told us the third time na aatakehin sya it will be hard and critical.
Kaya ngayon iniiwas namin sya sa stress at kung anu-ano pang bagay na makasasama sa kanya.
"Paki lagay nalang sa table. Thanks." saad ko nang hindi nakatingin sa kanya.
I just can't seem to believe that almost two months ago this isn't the Margaux they knew and this isn't the place where people can find me.
This four cornered room and the picture of me working was never in my wildest dreams but look at me now. Time and experience do really change a person.
My phone rang and my mom's name pop up.
"Yes ma, how are you...and dad? " as I answered the call. "
"We're fine honey. I just called because we missed you. Hindi na tayo nagkikita sa bahay kasi lagi kang nag oOT at maaga ka ring umaalis." mom said
Huminga ako ng malalim and "Sorry mom. I'm just busy with work"
"How's work? " mom asked.
"Well, hindi pa ako masyadong magaling sa pag handle ng company. Alam mo naman yan mom" biro ko upang maibsan ang kanyang nararamdaman "but I'm working on it"
But the truth is one wrong move and the company will sink.
"That's good to hear honey, I'll hang up na your dad's awake. Iloveyou"
"Okay mom. Pagkatapos ko dito dretso ako jan. Bye Loveyouboth!" I said as I ended the call.
I smile after our talk. And I realize how much I love my family that I'm willing to give up my life for them.
I remember, I used to live an easy life.
Shopping, partying, strolling around and going to salon was my life before.
As the only daughter of a business tycoon, surely I can get what I want. But I am also a model and kumukita rin ako ng pera.
But now my life changed.
It feels my life before was out of my league this past few weeks. Lalo na ngayong namomroblema kami sa kompanya dahil tinangay ng kasosyo ni papa sa isang negosyo ang pera.
Makakatulong sana ang magiging profit for the company.
I need to think wiser on how to work things out not just to save our company but also our credibility and of course our family.
Ayokong maghirap kami. I will do everything....anything para mabalik sa dating estado ang kompanya.
Naisip kong sayang rin naman ang pinag-aralan ko kung hindi ako makakatulong sa company.
And of course I won't be a Peralta for nothing.
