YAKAP ko ang mga dokumento sa aking dibdib habang pinapanood ang pagpalit ng numero sa elevator. Kabado ako sa unang pagkakataon, kung kailan panghuling trabaho kay Caesar ay magpapakita ako ng ganitong gawain.
The door notified that it will open. I stepped out and greeted the Korean lady on the desk. I believe she's the personal secretary of the President.
"This way Ms. Imperial." She led me the way.
Everything is very formal and tidy. Minimalistic and expensive, even the smell soothes the place. I could say that the president might be strict or someone who doesn't like accessories. There were only four colors I've noticed; blue, black, gray, and white. Nothing else, except with this woman who's wearing an apple green corporate attire.
Ngumiti ako at nagpasalamat nang pagbuksan niya ako ng pinto.
Nahigit ko ang aking hininga sa laki ng opisina. Ang liwanag at spacious. Nakita ko si Caesar na prenteng nakaupo sa couch, humihigop sa tsaa niya. May lalaki namang nakatalikod sa amin habang may kausap sa cellphone.
Siya marahil ang presidente?
"I apologize for the delayed, Mr. Caesar."
"No big deal, Darling. Have a seat."
Bago maupo ay sinulyapan ko ang lalaki. I don't know but I had a strange feeling with him. I can't describe if he is on his late forties because his hair was disheveled and his back built looked powerful, but for sure he is. Most of the successful moguls are ranging on that age. Bachelors won't handle this kind of big company unless they don't have a choice.
Inayos ko ang aking dala at ibinigay kay Caesar. Saktong tayo niya kaya gumaya ako. Ngunit nabitin ang dapat kong pagsunod noong humarap ang presidente. Mula kay Caesar ay nanatili sa akin ang titig niya. Saglit na natigilan ngunit bumaling ulit kay sa nauna.
Ang lakas nang kalabog ng dibdib ko. Shit! Bakit ba sa tuwing haharap ako sa kanya, natatapat na mukha akong katulong?
"It's such an honor, Mr. Aldrich to be a partner of your major company," said Caesar on his deep manly voice.
Mariin ko siyang tinitigan. Is he pretending straight or what? Hindi siya ganyan magsalita sa mga kausap niya! Or maybe Frank's appeal was too strong that he denied now his gender.
Seryosong binabasa ni Frank ang dokumento, hindi napapansin ang malagkit na titig ng boss ko.
"I had a high expectation with your works Mr. Pie. I'm sure my secretary spoke with your secretary—" He paused his statement and gave me a questioning look.
Napalingon din sa akin si Caesar.
Wala kayang sinabi ang secretary niya! Galing kay Isaac 'yon, baka ang pangalawa ang kinausap at hindi ako.
"Why I choose you. We will launch an online game and I want you to design the characters costume including the details all." Umikot siya upang formal na maupo sa kanyang swivel chair. May pagpasada nang tingin sa akin bago nanatili sa kausap.
