Nothing changed, everyone was still the same. Well, except for me, I changed myself. Lots of years ago, now let's not drown from the past and let's just swim in the present.
"Ms. Zaikene Jairene? The shareholders are now waiting at the conference hall." I heard my secretary say.
I just sighed then checked myself at the mirror. I put light makeup on then straightend my body with my chin up.
"Let's go, Ms. Viltro." I simply called my assistant then walked towards the door of my office.
While walking through the hallway I heard the staff gossiping around, so I faced them then threw them my cold stare.
"If you have nothing else to do more than gossip around, kindly hand me your resignation letter. I want it this afternoon." I coldly said then continued walking.
'Arghh! Bakit ba sila dikit nang dikit para lang mag-usap?! May pabulong-bulong pang nalalaman, naririnig lang din naman! Akalain mo din naman?! Pinagmukha pa nilang tindahan 'tong kompanya namin! Arghh!!'
"Ms. Zaikene? We're now here." Because I was drowned in thoughts I didn't notice that we were already in front of the conference hall.
I took a deep breath then walked inside the room full of confidence. As I was examining the whole room one thing caught my attention.
It was someone to be exact. As I always do in every meeting, I wore my cold and fierce face. Though I was really curious of who he was. Yes it was a he, I couldn't see his face 'cause it was covered by the documents he was holding, so I just didn't mind his prescence.
When I sat down on my rightful chair nobody dared to talk. Maybe because of the aura that filled this room. So I sighed then broke the silence.
"So? Is this meeting still going or are all of you going to just sit there?" I sarcastically said with my right eyebrow raised.
"S-sorry Ms. Luxcious." One of the shareholders said. Trembling.
Am I really that scary for them to tremble? Kulang na nga lang na mahimatay na sila sa takot. Tch.
"So, what's this meeting all about?" I asked coldly, not minding what he said.
"This meeting is all about one of our major shareholder. He said that he was getting old so he sent his son to take over his position." Another shareholder explained.
What in the world of hell is that kind of excuse?! Doesn't mean that he's old he could just pass it to someone else?! And of course he can't do that until he has the consent of the CEO.
"That's all?" I asked.
"No Ms. Luxcious, we also need to discuss about the companies needs." The shareholder said.
"Later with the meet and greet. Let's focus on the companies needs." I coldly said.
"Yes, Ms. Luxcious." They all answered.
While one of the shareholders was stating the needs of the company, I felt that someone was staring at me. But I just shrugged it off then listened to the presentation.
"We need to renovate the companies cafeteria. We are now having plenty of employees, and some of them can't attend to a seat." He explained.
'Hanudaw?! Gagastos siya or should I say kami para diyan?! Is he even thinking that only some of the employees are eating on that cafeteria?! Ugh!! Can someone remind me kung bakit napili ko sila as shareholders?! Their useless as shit!'
"Mr. Vazquon. May I remind you that only 'some' of our employees eat inside that cafeteria?! And what do you mean that some of them can't attend to any seat?! Yes, we have plenty of employees and more to come, but we're just wasting our money through that?! Let me tell you this Mr. Vazquon.... We don't need to attend to our employees except for important matters. And the other employees often eat outside this company! Ugh!" I said with my brows furrowed and my head hurting.
"S-sorry Ms. Luxcious." He apologized.
"It's fine, now continue with the other needs." I said while massaging my head and brows still furrowing.
'I don't even remember accepting dumb shareholders?! Nawawala ba siya?! Damn their all getting in my nerves!'
"This is our most needed Ms. Luxcious. We need more computers and printers." He said and I even saw his fingers cross.
'Yup! He's officially really dumb! 'Wag kang lalapit talaga sa'kin baka na pektusan pa kitang tatanga-tanga ka?!'
"I finally agree Mr. Vazquon. Good thing ginamit mo na rin utak mo." I said in a mataray way.
"Thank you and sorry Ms. Luxcious." He said but I just rolled my eyes at him.
"Now, let's proceed the meet and greet." I said.
Like nakakainip kaya! Lumala pa pagkainip ko dahil nga ang mga tanga naman nang mga taong andito ngayon! Sumasakit tuloy ulo ko sa kanila.
"May I ask?" I asked Mr. Vazquon.
"You're already asking.... Ms. Luxcious." My whole system malfunctioned as I heard that baritone but sexy voice.
I was very sure that he was the one that answered my question. Never in my life that I mistook which from which.
Though I was shocked, I still managed to look from where I heard that voice. And there I saw him. Sitting comfortably while staring at me.
I was pretty sure the time will come that i'll be meeting him again, but not this way.
He didn't change a single bit, he still has his own style, his voice changed, he's still handsome like when we were still friends. He's back.
My brother......
My best friend......
My six years ex-boyfriend......
