Chasing The Moon

Chapter Nine

Chapter Nine

It was exactly two weeks but still no sign of my boss. I'm his secretary pero mas alam pa ng head ng Finance Department ang kinaroroonan at ginagawa ng boss namin. Not that I am demanding for something, but can he atleast let me know his whereabouts? Ako ang ginugulo ng mga naghahanap sakanya. I even remember when some random girl just came up in front of me asking for his location, but I don't have the fucking idea, so obviously I told her that and I end up being scolded for straight 2 minutes.

I'm getting annoyed day by day.

I am busy typing when the elevator opened.

"Hey girl!!" Haley ran towards my direction while Fantazia's taking her time, clicking her heels on the marble floor.

Haley seated on my table and closed my laptop.

"What the--"

"Sumama ka samin mag-lunch. Miss ka na namin!"

"Ikaw lang." Masama kong tiningnan si Fantazia.

"Stressed na ako kay Primo, eh. Tangina pinahihirapan kami sa paggawa ng mga proposals. Isipin mo, apat na proposals na nilalatag namin tapos lahat nireject niya lang. Halimaw!" She rolled her eyes upwards and stomped her feet.

"Sisihin mo si Amy, panay approved siya tapos puro naman pala palya." Fantazia comfortably sat on the sofa and put her legs on the center table while slowly wagging her feet.

Madam na madam, ah!

"Isa pa iyon. Inaapproved mga gawa ng team ko tapos pag nireject ni Primo, turo nang turo ng mali." She frowned.

Lahat kasi ng ginagawa namin ay dumadaan muna kay Amy, our assistant head, bago mapunta kay Primo. That's how we work.

Nanatiling nakasimangot si Haley. Tinabi ko pa ang papel na nilagyan ko ng glue dahil kaonting usog niya nalang ay mauupuan niya na iyon. Inayos ko muna ang mga papel na nasa lamesa ko bago tumayo.

"Halika na kumain na tayo para naman lumamig 'yang ulo mo. Baka bukas makalawa mabalitaan kong friendship over na kayo ni Primo." I joked but it seems like she would really take that seriously.

"Malapit na talaga!!"

"Work is work, Haley! No personal matters should be involve in work." Mas lalong bumusangot si Haley sa sinabi ni Fantazia, she even crossed her arms over her chest.

Napagpasyahan naming kumain sa isang Itallian restaurant malapit sa building. Fantazia and I just ordered pasta pero itong si Haley ay mukhang may balak atang magmukbang. She ordered pasta, pizza, lasagna, tiramisu and more.

Literal na stress eating.

Nang dumating ang order namin ay wala nang patumpik-tumpik na kumain si Haley. I can't help but to laugh at her.

"Kumusta pagiging secretary?" Fanti asked, getting a piece of pizza.

"Yes, I'm curious, too. Well, not to mention that your boss is y-- wait a minute..."

"What?" I asked her, still eyeing the lasagna. This one is delicious. I wanna know their recipe for this.

"What did the two of you did that night?"

"Me? With whom?"

"Jameson Kit Legaspi." Napahinto ako sa pagbusisi sa lasagna. I heard Fanti's chuckle.

"Lansa, ah!"

Nag-angat ako ng tingin sakanilang dalawa. "W-what do you mean?" I tried denying.

"Come on, Lex! Infairness ang haba ng hair mo that night." Haley giggled while biting her fork.

"Mabuti nalang kilala nung mga tropa nung lalaki si Kit kaya di na pinaganti 'yong lalaki pero kung hindi siguro..." Fantazia shook her head then tapped her fork on her plate three times. "World War 69."
