Love in Vengeance

"...Unless you want to stay at my office. You'll just stare at me the whole time."

I just rolled my eyes.

"Can I apply for the position of, head of architecture?" Kaswal kong sabi. "I'll do my requirements and bio's later, ma'am."

"Okay, hija. By the way, College graduate ka na ba?"

Bigla naman akong natigilan. Yes I'm a college graduate pero they don't know. Wala din sa'kin 'yung diploma ko.

Umiling naman ako, tsaka tumungo.

"Ganon ba hija? Pano na 'yan? College Grad kasi ang kailangan."

"Baka naman pwede nating ibase sa plates na gagawin n'ya. Pagawan natin s'ya ng plates." Ani Mav.

"Yes son, pwede naman." Ani ni tito tsaka bumaling sa'kin. "Pero may alam ka ba sa  architecture, hija? Any knowledge?"

"Oho, meron po."

"Okay, that's good. Punta ka nalang sa office on monday, for your interview and requirements, kasama na din dun 'yung plates mo."

"Thankyou tita, tito. I'll do my best ho," Masaya kong ani. Tsaka bumaling kay Mav, na nakangiti sa'kin.

I'm very happy and thankful with this opportunity. Sino ba naman kasi ang maghihire ng head of architecture na wala pang diploma ng college, or hindi pa graduate, diba?

They're taking the risk. They're trusting me. Therefore I should do better. Wala dapat akong sayangin na oras para sa pag preprepare.

Starting later, I'll prepare my plates and also the interview. I should be prepared on Monday. Para naman hindi nakakahiya, wala na nga'kong diploma. Tapos pinagbigyan pa nila'ko. I shouldn't waste this opportunity.

"You're welcome hija. Oh, s'ya, magprepare ka na. You need to rest well. Para magawa mo ng maayos 'yung plates mo. Goodnight hija, sleepwell," Ani tita ang kissed my cheeks. "Son hatid mo na s'ya sa kwarto n'ya."

"Goodnight din po!" Ani ko na nakangiti tsaka bumaling kay tito. "Taas na po kami,"

"Okay, we'll rest too."

We walk through the stairs going to my room. Mav accompanied me. While walking, we talked. "I'll be the one to interview you on monday," masaya n'yang ani.

Hmm. I think, I know his plan. He could just pull some strings, for me to be hired on the job.
"Mav,"

"Babe," pagtatama n'ya.

"Babe?"

"Hmm?" Nakangiti n'yang ani.

"Hindi mo naman siguro ako ihihire, even though I'm not the best."

"You're the best,"

Ugh. I rolled my eyes.

"I'm not. I know, maraming professional, college graduate, maraming may experience, and come from a prestigious schools na mag aaply. And I'm just a highschool graduate. Just please don't pull some strings. If hindi ako nakuha, I can handle any job in your company." I stop and looked at him. He looked at me seriously. "I can work in the marketing department,"
