"Ethan?? Ikaw si Mr. Galvez??"
Parang kahapon lang eh nagkita kami ah.
"Actually its my Dad, but he wanted me to be the one who work on this." Ngiting sabi niya.
"I see."
Lumapit siya at umupo sa tabi ko.
"I hope abswelto na ako sa nangyari kahapon." He blurted while im reading the documents.
Natawa na lang ako.
"As i told you, okay lang yun."
"I never expected that you work on this company. I mean COO of Marx Corp."
"Well, its my husband's anyway." Sabi ko na lang.
Nagulat naman siya sa sinabi ko.
"You mean--"
"Yeah. Im married." Ngiting sabi ko.
Natahimik siya sandali sa sinabi ko.
"Im sorry, its just unbelievable."
"I understand.. so about the contract. I can see that it is all properly organized. The only thing we need is that the CEO will sign it that im sure he will. Nice doing business with." Sabi ko at nilahad ang kamay ko.
He glady accept it. Medyo nagtaka lang ako sa pagpisil niya dito pero agad ding kumalas.
"So for the next few months will be working together." He said.
"Yes."
"Excuse me maam." Pumasok si Yana na may dalamg pagkain.
Nagpaorder kasi ako ng cake at coffee sa cafe at pinadeliver ni Tasha.
Inilapag ito ni Yana sa mesa atsaka lumabas.
"Wow, Epithymía." Ethan blurted.
Nabasa niya siguro yung supot.
"You know that cafe?" I asked.
"Ofcourse. I love the coffee in there."
"Thanks for the complement. I actually own the place."
Nagulat naman siya sa sinabi ko.
"You always surprise me Scarlet."
Ngumiti lang ako.
"Lets eat." Aya ko.
Sa kalagitnaan ng pagkain namin ay nagulat sa ginawa niya.
"Sorry, may icing kasi." He wipe the icing on my lip using his thumb.
At mas nagulat akong sinubo niya yun.
"Delicious." He said while staring at me."
Hindi ko na din maalis ang mga mata ko sa titig niya. Para niya akong nilulusaw.
Nabalik lang ako sa katinuan nang tumunog ang phone ko.
I immediately saw daryl's face on my phone.
He is calling me.
"Excuse me."
Bahagya akong lumayo kay Ethan at sinagot yung tawag.
"Hi."
(Is everthing okay there?") He asked.
"Yeah.. i already met Mr. Galvez."
(That's good. We'll talk about it when i get back okay?)
"Yeah.. ingat ka diyan ha."
(Haha.. you too. Just say hi to ninong from me.)
