What Can You Do For Love?

Chapter 11

Another busy morning for Karylle.. She has to do a final revision for some house plans, emergency meetings for the costings in their other projects, and visitations in some sites..

But at this moment, Karylle is in her office, seriously talking to a tall guy who is wearing a coat and tie with short golden hair. They were talking about her project in New York..

K: I understand the concern Mr. Williams.. But I already informed your office about my decision..

Mr. Williams: Yes, we are aware about it.. But my bosses were insisting for your service.. They want you to be their engineer for this project.

K: Sir, the truth is.. I'm very flattered and overwhelmed for choosing me as the engineer for a such big project.. And I am so ashamed and embarrassed at the same time by refusing it because of my prior commitments. And I just can't leave my business hanging that long.. I'm really sorry..

Mr. Williams: We do understand all your worries Ms. Tatlonghari.. That is why, we are giving you time to settle everything that you need to accomplish for your business before going to New York..

K: But it's not that easy..

Mr. Williams: We know.. My bosses want to tell you that, they are willing to wait until you agreed with it..

K: I don't understand..(Confused face).. No offense but, why me?? I tried to offer my other colleagues but you kept on declining them.. And here you are convincing me.. Why??

Mr. Williams: I'm sorry Ms. Tatlonghari.. I was sent here to deliver this messages and I don't have an idea for your question.. All I know is they want you so bad as their engineer.. (Apologetic face).. So please try to think of it once again..

K: (Sighed deeply)... Fine.. I'll think about it.. And send my sincere "Thank you" to your bosses please.. (Stand up and offer her hand for a hand shake)

Mr. Williams: I will.. And we are hoping for a "yes" next time.. (Smiling)

And the english guy got back to his hotel where he is staying for days before he flight back to New York..

While Karylle is still busy for her other commitments for the day, when Vice is texting and calling her..

From: Vicey <3

I'm here at the clubhouse.. I bought your favorite cake, let's eat it together.. :)

From: Vicey <3

Are you on your way now? You're not answering my calls.

From: Vicey <3

Still here..

Karylle did not notice her phone and forgot to inform Vice that she can't visit the subdivision today because of her hectic schedule..

Vice is in Laguna waiting for Karylle.. It's 6 in the evening already but she did not come.. He is worried and nettled at the same time..

Vice: Where are you K?!.. She's not answering my texts and calls.. (Bumming around the clubhouse).. I think i should call Anne..

-Calling Anne-

Anne: Hello Kuya!!

Vice: Hey! Are you with K??

Anne: Oh! I'm fine brother.. Thank you for the concern!!
