"What the heck is she doing here?"
"Sir." pinandilatan ko siya ng mga mata.
Ang daming empleyado dito ngayon. Ayokong gumawa siya ng eksena.
"Mr. Dale." lumapit siya doon sa head ng Advertising Department.
Hay nako. Ayaw niya ba talagang makita si Vimaia? I know na ex-girlfriend niya 'yan, pero past na 'yon, dapat naka-move on na siya.
"Sorry, Sir Breydon, but we are unable to accomplish that. As you are aware, one of our company's largest investors is his father."
Bulong lang 'yon pero rinig na rinig ko pa din.
Siguro about kay Vimaia 'yon.
""It doesn't matter, follow my instructions exactly."
Stubborn talaga.
"Sir, mag-sisimula na sila." hinila ko na si Breydon palapit doon sa gitna. May photoshoot kasi ang mga models ng Dawnlens ngayon, nandito kami sa may studio. Gusto kasi makita ni Breydon kung maayos ba ang mga ganap dito.
"I can't concentrate! The hot boss is here."
"He's so gorgeous."
"Look at that body and face, argh."
"He's so handsome!"
"He's so tall, gosh."
Gusto ko na lang talagang mapa-irap.
Wala naman akong magagawa, gwapo talaga si Breydon. Agaw attention talaga ang mukha, katawan at height niya, tapos CEO pa namin siya. Para siyang artista dito, grabe.
"This is for the new campaign, am I right?" tanong sa akin ni Breydon.
"Yes, sir." sagot ko sa kanya.
"I can't see the impact," he said, crossing his arms over his chest. "We require a fresh model."
Ayan na naman tayo. "New model, sir? Do you want me to speak with Sir Dale—"
"I can do it." lumapit ulit siya kay Sir Dale na naka-upo doon sa harap ng monitor.
Naiwan tuloy akong naka-tayo dito sa gilid.
Ayan, ang awkward na. Lalo na at kanina pa akong tinitignan ni Vimaia. Para niya akong jina-judge sa tingin niya, eh.
"I considered it because she has a beautiful face and she is tall. But I don't think she will accept it."
Bakit sila nakatingin sa akin?
Pinag-uusapan ba ako nila Breydon?
"Miss La delle." tinawag na ako ni Breydon.
Kahit nagtataka ay lumapit ako sa kanya. "Yes, sir?" tanong ko.
"Mr. Dale has an offer for you." tumingin siya kay Sir Dale.
Ngumiti naman sa akin si Sir Dale, "I'm simply trying to be straightforward here and taking a chance. Would you like to represent Dawnlens Company as a model? I am able to—"
"Sorry, sir. Pero ayoko po." sagot ko kaagad sa kanya. Sinamaan ko pa ng tingin si Breydon na nakatitig sa akin ngayon.
"Give it a shot, Miss La delle." sagot sa akin ni Breydon, "It's for the good of our company. I pictured you standing there creating a position, and I think it suits you perfectly. Plus, we need to incorporate new faces into this campaign; you'll be a huge assist."
Kahit ano pa ang sabihin mo, hindi ako papayag.
"Sir Breydon—"
"Please?"
