"One-Night With A Stranger"
[CHAPTER 23]

Third Person
"ABOUT the box, I recommend--" Clint was about to instruct him an easier way, but Meckelian suddenly ignored his boss at patakbo itong lumabas ng opisina. Matapos nito ay naiwan siyang mag-isa sa loob, and he haven't got the chance to stop his secretary and tell him what to do next. Kaya napasandal na lamang siya sa kaniyang table at napahawak ng sentido. Damn it, everything is screwed up!
Ang hindi alam ni Clint ay unti-unti na siyang kinakain ng konsensya dahil sa mga pinagagagawa niya rito. Bakit nga ba humantong ang lahat sa ganito? He's been carried away by his anger at masyado siyang nagpapadala sa galit, and after what he did surely will draw more space between them.
Frankly speaking, he should be happy about this. Dahil sa wakas ay umuubra na ang pagpapahirap niya rito. But fate seems to disgaree, things have turned upside down and it seems like maging siya ay nahihirapan sa sitwasyon nilang dalawa.
'Am I being too harsh to the point na I'm becoming an enormous monster I once despise the most?' Tanong niya sa sarili, and took a deep breath. Hindi pa rin niya maintindihan kung bakit lagi siyang nilalamon ng galit lamang na nangyari sa kanilang dalawa in 'that night', and it seems like he's the only one who cannot move on. The more he sees Meckelian, the more he cannot forget what happened between them.
'Get a hold on yourself, man!' Muling bulong nito sa sarili, at wala na siyang nagawa kun'di bumalik sa kaniyang table at umupo sa swivel chair. He was about to press the intercom upang tawagin ito at utusan, but he called another person instead. "Chelsea, can you please bring a cup of coffee in my office? I need it right now. Thank you." Maikling utos nito and did not have to wait for her reply at mabilis na pinatay ang linya.
Ilang saglit pa ay nakarating na ito dala ang isang tasa ng kape. He was about to take a sip, ngunit napansin niya ang pagtunog ng kaniyang phone sa gilid ng table kaya mabilis niya itong kinuha, and it took him a few seconds bago niya ito sagutin.
"What's up, dude!" Masayang pamunhad ng kaniyang kaibigan sa kabilang linya.
"What do you want, Jerome?"
"Wala naman, bro. Naisip ko lang na since I'm having a free-time today, why don't I come over your place just like the old times at uminom ulit?" Naningkit naman ang mga mata niya dahil sa sinabi nito. "Also, may binigay palang bagong alak sa akin si pareng Zie, 'yung owner ng bar na pinuntahan natin last month, and he wanted us to try his new product." Panghihikayat nito sa kaniya.
Hindi siya nakasagot dahil nag-aalangan pa siyang tanggapin ang alok nito, ngunit sa pangungulit ni Jerome ay pumayag na rin siya 'cause he want to break-free from the overloading stress.
'I guess, it's not bad to treat myself sometimes.' Mahinang bulong nito sa sarili bago sumagot. "Fine, you can come over since mamayang hapon pa ang next appointment ko."
