"Alright!" I shouted with joy.

Holy crap tapos na din! Pwede na ako umuwi! Sinaksak ko muna ang flashdrive ko sa laptop ko para maisave ang proposal na ginawa ko, I still need to print this and create a power point, I can still make the power point tomorrow morning, gigising nalang ako ng maaga kahit pa 12pm ang pasok ko. Sa univ. nalang muna ako tatambay or pwede naman dito nalang?

When I already saved the file, I immediately fixed my things before getting out of the office and locked the door. Mrs. Evero gave me the keys earlier since I was the only one who asked for permission to work overtime. I used the elevator to reach the ground floor of the hospital and gave the keys back to the nurse station.

It was already 11:02 pm so I quickly opened the door of my Bentley and started the engine so I can get to Fiona's condo right away.

I texted her earlier while I was in the elevator if I could stay in her unit and luckily, she said it's okay. I'm too lazy to have a long drive back to the house at this time of the night, I'm already tired.

I didn't even want this.

I let out a deep sigh before driving to get out of this hell-like place.

I parked my car at the parking lot when I got to Fiona's condo. I reached out for my phone from the front pocket of my pants and called Fiona.

"Sorry, the person you're calling right now is unreachable."

My eyebrows furrowed, is her phone off? I immediately took my things and got out of the car. Dali dali akong nagtatatakbo sa lobby ng condo at pumunta sa may elevator para makasakay na ako. I'm worried about Fiona, hindi niya sinasagot ang tawag ko.

"Ang tagal naman," I whispered to myself while tapping my left forefoot on the floor. Pumasok naman ako agad sa elevator nang bumukas ito.

I can't help but to fidget because of worry. Mamaya kung nasaan na pala si Fiona o kaya naman may nangyari sakaniya sa unit niya. Dali dali naman akong lumabas ng elevator nang marating nito ang 5th floor, tinanggal ko na ang heels ko para madali akong makarating sa unit ni Fiona.

May mga nakakasalubong akong ibang tao, habang tumatakbo ako ay mayroon akong nabangga na bahagya na isang lalaki, tuloy tuloy pa rin ako sa pagtakbo ngunit nilingon ko siya sa likod ko.

"Sorry! Emergency lang!" I couldn't see his face clearly, but sincere naman ang sorry ko, ano! Nagaalala kaya ako kay Fiona!

"Whatever." I heard the guy I bumped into whispered.

Napatigil naman ako bigla sa pag takbo dahil sa narinig ko. My hands started turning into clenched fists. Hindi ko pa siya tuluyang nahaharap pero baka kapag naharap ko hindi ko mapigilan 'yung sarili ko na masuntok nalang siya, and I will not say sorry.

Argh! The nerve of this guy!

Huminga muna ako ng malalim nang ilang beses bago ko napag desisyunan na harapin ang lalaking 'to na mukhang kulang sa aruga!

"Excuse me? Ang kapal naman yata ng mukha mo? You could simply say 'it's okay' or you can just shut your damn rude mouth!" I fired at him,

Pero pagkatingin ko sa likod ko wala nang tao. I stomped so hard in the freaking hallway, halos marinig bawat sulok! Argh! Nakakabanas talaga! Umiling na lamang ako at nagpatuloy sa pagtakbo papunta sa unit ni Fiona.

She's like my little sister kaya naman todo ako sa pag alaga diyan! She's too fragile.

I immediately took out my duplicate keys to Fiona's unit from my bag. Sa sobrang natataranta na ako bigla ko na lamang nabitawan 'yung susi.
