Living With The Billionaire

Choke

A quick coffee from a vending machine and a biscuit for breakfast and i'm ready to go to work.

I silently thank God that our lunch is free sa restau.

Of all meals in a day, i look forward on lunch.

As I am walking my way to work, i'm peeking through my purse kung makaka bili pa ko ng pangkain mamayang gabi.

*sigh*

I only have 200 pesos and my cut off is not until 5 days from now. How the hell will i get through those days?

*sigh*

I peeked again and counted again. Making sure i count it right this time. And voila! I got the same result.

*sigh*

This is impossible. 200 pesos in 5 days? Ugh i shouldnt have gave that homeless man 150 pesos the other day. I am so stupid.

When i was rich, nakasanayan ko na mag bigay sa mga homeless man. Kaso ngayon, lesson learned. Kailangan ko rin pala ng kailangan nila. Damn stupidity i should have counted my money first.

I arrived in the reastaurant punch my way in, and started working my shift.

Its just another normal day.. People come in, eat and pay and go. Another normal busy day.
Or so I thought

Gutom na gutom na ko at gusto ko na kumain. Wala pa ko matinong kain muna kaninang umaga. Hindi rin ako kumain kagabi. And i havent had any water since i remembered. My mouth is dry as a desert all the way down my throat.

When I am about to take my lunch, there is a woman in the mid 60's choking on her food.
Seeing the situation, i ran to her together with my manager and help the lady.

'this is a first for me' i thought to myself.

Namumutla na ang matanda at ubo ng ubo. I am gently tapping her back as panick arises around us.
I heard the manager asking the receptionist to call for help.

As minutes passed, doon lang nag sink in sakin na magiging seryoso ang sitwasyon na to habang tumatagal.

Until the lady shows sign of taking a hard time to breathe.
Her lips turning blue.
And her face shows that she will pass out.
Unsure of what to do, i did what my instinct told me.

Binatukan ko sya ng isang malakas.

And there goes the chunk of steak flying from her mouth. Then followed by a big thump.

Then I realized, tumumba din yung matanda sa lakas ng hampas ko. We quickly managed to get her up

"t-thank you ija, thank you"

"i-im so sorry ma'am i just had to do it, are you alright?"

"yes ija thank you i feel much better you just saved my life!"

We accompanied her to sit back while my eyes are playing tricks on me. Suddenly i feel dizzy. Umiikot yung paligid ko,

"i'll just- uhm"

"ija ikaw okay ka lang ba?"

"i j-just, i-will get you a glass of water. Uhm --" then darkness elgufed me as I collapsed on the ground face first.
