The One

THE ONE: 006

General POV

-MORNING-

Ion woke up with his head hurting like a bitch. He groaned as he get off the bed and walked straight to his walk in closet to prepare. He doesn't want to be late.

Who the hell sent me home?  It can't be the two of them. He thought as he get his office clothes.

Little did he know, the one who sent him home is already eating breakfast with his parents.

He took a quick shower and immediately wore his clothes. He look dashing as always.

Ion grabed his briefcase with important files inside. When he's all set he left his room locked and went down stairs.

When he's at the middle of the steps,  his mouth went agape as he saw who's eating a damn breakfast with his dear parents. He's shocked at the same time confused as hell.

Dont f'ckn tell me... She, alone, sent me home? , he thought, as he keep walking down.

He's about to ask when his father spoke. "join us, Ion." his father simply spoke.

Unhesitatingly, he sat across Sam who is quietly eating. She avoided the guy's eye contact towards her.

"Ion, how irresponsible of you to let your secretary sent you home because you're drunk. Hindi mo ba naisip na babae ang sekretarya mo?" his mother's voice echoed to the entire mansion. Per usual,  he's not showing any emotions.

"Mom,  as far as i remember, i didn't ordered her to sent me home. It was her choice to drive me here. Why are you scolding me? " he defended.

Sam was seating straight on her chair. She's agitated and her palm is sweating. Gusto ko lang naman magtrabaho ng payapa. Ba't ako napunta sa sitwasyon na to. Sa isip ni Sam.

"Ion, as far as i remember, you're the one who asked her company. Ikaw ang nagyaya sa kanya papunta sa party when, you knew it's not her part job to accompany her boss" his mother stated and Ion just sighed, frustrated.

"I know, Mom. There was Vhong and Jhong who can drop me here. She has a choice to leave me at that damn bar" he continued arguing.

"s-sir,  sir jhong is also drunk that time, sir vhong is still sober but a bit tipsy. H-he asked me if i can send you home. I was hesitant at that moment but i also left with no choice seeing that sir Vhong can't handle you both bcs he also felt dizzy and your house is a distant. " Sam timidly spoke. All eyes on her.

"See?  Be thankful that you have an amiable secretary like Vice." his mother said. He just rolled her eyes in defeat.

"next time, don't be so irresponsible and think rational, Ion. Maaring mapahamak ang sekretarya mo." sabi ng ama niya at ininom ang tubig na nasa harap niya.

The tension earlier was very rigid. Every one of them is unsmiling. But as minutes goes by, the pressure was diminished.

They finished eating already. Ion is already on his car and Sam is still at the mansion and about to say her goodbye.

"Uh... Ma'am, Sir,  i'll get going.  Thank you for letting me stay here for a night and sorry for being a burden" Sam said as she sheepishly smiled.

"It's nothing, dear and you're not a burden. In fact we're very greatful that you are Ion's secretary." his boss' mother reassured her.

"Please, be patient of him, iha. He wont hurt you. He may be cold and intimidating but i assure you,  he's a good man" this time,  Ion's father spoke. She gave her million dollar smile to the elders. Sam is also greatful because Ion's parents were kind.

"Thank you." she bowed a little and smiled, the edlers smiled back as a response.

She exited the mansion and went to the car that is parked infront of the mansion. It's a black audi. Damn it.
