His Slave

Chapter 8

"G-Good Morning Ms. Agatha." I greeted the Kaisei High Secretary, panting. "Miss Walsh, Good Morning. What may I help you with?"

"Itatanong ko lang po sana kung andyan po ba ang President?"

"Ah yes, he's in a meeting right now."

Shit. I need to do something before it's too late.

"Ms. Agatha, can I talk to the president? I really need to see him now." I asked while I'm nervously tapping my feet on the floor.

"Importante ba talaga ang sasabihin at ngayon mo talaga siya gustong makausap?"

I don't have a choice. Kailangan ko talagang makapasok sa office of the president, bago pa mahuli ang lahat.

Here goes nothing.

"A-Ano po kasi, may nahanap na po ba kayong bagong SC President?" tanong ko.

"Is that the reason why you're here? Are you interested in the position?"

I nodded. "Great! Akala kasi namin ayaw mong maging SC President. Buti nlng at nagvolunteer ka, namomroblema kasi kaming maghanap ng kapalit kay Viah." she said and I faked a smile.

"Ganon po ba. So, can I meet the President now?"

"I'm very sorry Miss Walsh, but he's busy right now. He's fully sched. If you want, I'll set a meeting for you but for tomorrow na. Okay?"

No! This can no longer wait. This is between life and death. Magiging useless lang ang pagsisinungaling ko nito.

"Just come back tomorrow. Okay? Miss Wals--" Hindi ko na siya pinakinggan pa at dumiretso akong pumasok sa office of the president. I immediately turned the door knob.

"Good Morning Mr. Akihiro!" sigaw ko ng nakapasok na sa office at nagsi-tinginan silang tatlo na tila nabigla sa pagsulpot ko. "Aiah?" gulat na sabi ni Scotch.

"Miss Walsh--" sambit ni Mr. Akihiro.

"Mr. President, I'm sorry bigla nlng po kasi siyang tumakbo papasok dito." paliwanag ni Ms. Agatha at nakahawak sa aking braso.

Mr. Akihiro raised his right hand. "It's okay Ms. Agatha, you can leave."

Agad naman itong lumabas ng office at binaling ko ulit ang aking tingin sa kanilang tatlo.

"Miss Walsh, what can I do for you?" Mr. Akihiro uttered and I glared at Uno who's smirking at me. Hindi na siya naka sunglasses at wala na rin siyang black eye.

Oh.. ano na Aiah? Speak Up!

"Ah.. Mr. President, narinig ko po kasing wala pa kayong nakitang kapalit na SC President, kaya gusto ko po sanang mag-apply." I said nervously.

"Actually, Miss Walsh we were just talking about you and I'm really glad that you're interested to be the SC President but I'm sorry to say I can't approve that."

Ang lakas ng kabog ng dibdib ko. Am I too late? "As you know, Uno's new here."

"Mr. President, I can explain--" he cut me off. "Uno said, that you've been a great help with him since he transferred to your section."

Napapikit nlng ako at naghihintay ng, I'm so disappointed with you. Sorry to say, you're expelled.

"Can you be Uno's guide?"

Wala na talaga. Ano daw? "Po?"

"He's new here and he's not familiar with the campus. And the rules and regulations of the school. Honestly Miss Walsh, I wanted you to be the SC President but I already found one and Uno wants you to be his guide. He said that his comfortable with you. I'm hoping Miss Walsh that you won't decline my request and don't worry you just need to guide him for a couple of weeks until he knows what he needs to know." Mr. Akihiro sincerely asked.
