I'm Yours ( Book 1 )

Chapter 25

Jema.

We were seated in the middle pagdating sa venue.  Okay na rin pala na kasama si Deanna kasi may escort ako. 

Sobrang attentive and asikaso nya ako kahit na hindi ko kailangan.  Lahat ng pagkain inaabot nya sa akin.  Gusto ata akong tumaba eh.

Ms. Liz Uy and Mr. Karlo Santos approached us after we had our dinner.

"Hi Jema and Deanna, we're glad you made it", sabi ni Ms. Liz sabay beso sa akin.

"Yes ma'am,  thank you po sa invite.  Ma'am Fhen wants to convey her congratulations po sa inyo and sa company." I said.

"Thank you Ms. Liz and Mr. Santos.  Congrats po", Deanna shook their hands.

We approached as many people as we can and talk about business and our company.

Deanna excused herself dahil andun din daw yung Manager from Smart.  Pinuntahan nya ito.

I saw the players of Creamline dancing.  Ang saya saya nilang tignan, nakikihalubilo din sila sa mga guests and game magpa picture.

Medyo nangalay na ako sa suot kong heels kaya iniwan ko muna yung kausap ko from Sta. Lucia at umupo.

Mr. Santos sat beside me kaya nakipagkwentuhan ako sa kanya.

"So Jema, are you happy with your current job?  Wala ka bang balak lumipat?, he asked.

"Right now sir, OK naman.  I'm enjoying it at the moment so no plan to job hunt", I replied.

"What if somebody offer you a better and bigger position with an excellent salary package?", he put me on the spot.

"Oh, depende po sir.  Sa ngayon po kasi I'm still trying to gain more experience and knowledge.  Mahirap pong sumabak sa isang position na hindi ka handa."

"I've heard a lot about you kasi that's why I asked. "

"I hope all positive sir ah."

"Don't worry, it's all good. We were satisfied on how you handled our account before and we hope it will continue as it is."

Then niyaya nya akong sumayaw when they starts playing slow music.  

Hinahanap ko si Deanna pero I can't find her sa dami ng tao.

I obliged to the request of sir Karlo, mukha namang mabait ito at harmless. 

He put his hands on my waist so I put my hands to his shoulders.  Grabe naman kung tumitig ito sa akin.  Kaya iniwas ko ang tingin sa kanya.

While dancing with him,  I caught a glimpse of Deanna at the bar in the corner.  May kausap syang babae.  They were leaning on the counter pero nakahawak yung kamay ng girl sa braso nya.  Mukhang enjoy na enjoy si Wong ah.  Panay ang ngiti nya sa babae.  Then bigla syang may ibinulong dito.  Tumawa naman yung babae at hinampas si Deanna.

Nag order ng drinks yung babae sa bartender at iniabot nya kay Deanna ang isang shot glass.  They had a toast first then ininom na yung drinks nila.

Talaga naman, working with pleasure itong si Wong. 

Umupo si Wong sa stool at yung babae naman ay lumapit at pumuwesto sa pagitan ng hita nya.

Bigla akong tumingin sa kabilang side.  Di ko kayang tignan ang landian ng dalawa.

Deanna Wong is back to her old fucking ways.  Ingat ka girl, baka maging victim ka rin.

Huh, bakit ba ako apektado dun sa dalawa.  Wala akong pake.
