Fall Back

Chapter 01

Faith's POV

"Boss, yung business proposal sa isang client natin nasarado na! We sealed our deal!"

"Good job! If we have a time, we can celebrate soon but now I really need to go. My family kasi kakauwi lang galing New York." sabi ko sa isang empleyado kong si Franco.

"Ay sayang naman. Soon kapag may time ka ha? We really need to celebrate. We have to throw a party. It was a big company. Bihira lang makakapagpasara ng deal dun" sabi pa niya. Napatawa naman ako ng bahagya.

"Hahahaha. Oo na sure. Pero nagmamadali talaga ako eh. Bye! Take care!" sabi ko at dali daling umalis papunta sa parking lot ng company ko. Yes, its my company. Pero it was my father's company and I am just his heiress pero unfortunately he was shot during their business meeting sa isang park. Sino naman kasi magmemeeting about business sa park lang? Si dad kasi gusto ng mga relaxing atmosphere lang kaya ayun. We found out na may empleyado pala siya na may galit sa kanya. Si Benedict, galit siya kay dad kasi he got fired by my father. Si Benedict naman kasi he was such a jerk. Nagmamagaling, nagdedesisyon ng basta basta without confirming it with my dad. My dad got so mad about it and many times nya na tong ginawa kaya sinisante siya ni dad. But Benedict got so vengeful, nalamon ng galit ampota nakain ng pride kaya he shot my dad. I was hurt syempre. I really really love my dad. He is such a jewel to me. Close pa kami nun. I really miss him so much. And that's it, kaya sakin pinamana ang kompanya.

*phone rings*

"Hello mom? Nasa building palang ako...... Yes, yes, yes. Papunta na ako....... Eto na, eto na. Nagmamadali na nga anak nyo eh...... Miss ko na rin kayo. See you later, bye love you!" and I hung up my phone. Yung mom ko yung tumawag. Nasa New York kasi sila for 4 years since namatay si dad. My mom and my other siblings can't handle it kaya they decided to move to US muna kaya ako lang natira dito sa pinas. But now, kakauwi lang nila that's why I am so excited to see them again!

Kakalabas ko lang sa elevator at naglalakad na ako ngayon sa parking lot dito sa basement ng building. I searched for my car and yun oh. I found it. I entered my car and start the engine and drive na paalis. *sigh* Nakakapagod maging C.E.O ng kompanya. Paper works dito, paper works doon. Pirma dito, pirma doon. Meetings, business proposals, urgh! Nakakasira ng ulo pero okay lang. I actually enjoying it. Napapalapit na rin ako sa mga empleyado ko. I mean, malapit ako sa kanila. Parang tropa lang turingan namin but formal naman if sa formal na meetings or situations. It's almost 8 pm na pala. Grabe naman ako magwork talo pa kabayo hahaha.

"...at ngayon nagdurugo. Dahil nga ngayon wala na ako doon" Uy. One of my favorite songs. Halik sa hangin by KZ Tandingan. But it was originally sung by Ebe Dancel and Abra. When I turned my car's radio on, ito agad bumungad.

"Sa piling nya mayroong pag asa pa ba" di ko na napigilan ang sarili ko at napasabay na sa kanta.

Third Person's POV

Faith is driving along the road on her way to her house. She is humming with the song and there's a crossing street and she is about to turn left when suddenly...

BOOGGSSHH!!!

There's a car that speeding up across her way, di niya ito nakita at nabangga siya nito. Her car turned upside down, twice. And she left with a bloody head at sasakyang umuusok.
