"Eh gago din pala ang isang 'yon eh!atsaka bakit dito nagtatrabaho 'yun?i-fire mo nga,kaibigan!"

Nat is fuming mad after I told her who's Dave and what they did to me 7 years ago.She was now seating on the swivel chair while swaying it in anger.I should be sitting on that swivel chair pero inunahan na ako ng hangal pagkatapos ay pinakwento sa akin kung bakit ganoon nalang ang tingin ko sa lalaking iyon kanina.

I was still mad,alright.But right when we entered my dad's office,that is now mine,napawi lahat ng galit ko sa aking katawan.But I'm sure,once I saw that freaking man again,lulukubin na naman ako ng galit.

I sighed heavily after I roamed around the office.It was nice.The interior designs is simple.It was painted in a plain gray like what I expected.Dad's favorite color is gray.Ganoon parin ang kulay gaya ng dati.Mas pinaganda nga lang ang mga kagamitan ngayon.Hula ko ay binago pa ni mom at ayaw niya lang sabihin sa akin sa kagustuhan ko na ito nalang ang ipagamit sa akin.

"Hindi ko din naman alam na nagtatrabaho dito yun,I don't even know his position in this firm.Akala ko ay med din ang kinuha niyang course sa college noon gaya ni Dr.Lazaro." I shrugged my shoulders.

She scratched her head.Nagpangalumbaba siya sa malapad na mesa ng opisina at tumingin sa akin na ngayon ay nakatayo sa harapan niya.It looks like I am an employee and she's the CFO of this firm.Siya na pinakikinggan ang irereport ko sakaniya bilang empleyado.

"You should really fire him tutal naman ay ikaw na ang hahalili kay Tito." She smirked.

I rolled my eyes at her,"I won't do that.Aside from my parents will get curious about it,I won't bring personal things at work.I can just stay civil with him."

She snorted,"Whatever.I hate him still.Kung ako ang nasa posisyon mo ngayon,malamang ay sinisante ko na 'yun!"

I shook my head in disbelief and chuckled.I walk towards the glass wall.This office is on the top floor,reason why I can clearly see the buildings.This is surely more beautiful every night.

I crossed my arms and bit my lowerlip as I looked outside.A memory suddenly came flashing on my mind.Umagang umaga ngunit nagawa ko paring maalala ang memoryang iyon kahit na iniimagine ko lang ang mga nag iilawang matatayog na building sa harapan ko ngayon.

Of course,how can I forget everything happened in that balcony of the coffee shop?halos doon lahat ang nangyari.From the night I knew his second name until the night we fell apart.From the night we started to be with each other until the night he fooled me and broke my heart.

I forced myself to wash away all my thoughts and cleared my throat.Why am I even thinking about this?

My eyes flew away on the door when we heard a knock.Inalis ko ang pagkakahalukipkip ko nang makitang si Jewel iyon.She was holding a tray with a two cups of coffee and two slices of chocolate cake.

Nakita ko pa ang pamimilog ng mata niya nang madatnan ang kaibigan ko na nakaupo sa table ni dad na dapat ay ako ang nandoon.Nat laughed awkwardly and stood up.Pabiro akong napairap at hinayaan ang sekretarya na ilapag sa table malapit sa sofa ang dala niya.

"Tamang tama,may tanong ako sayo!" Nat said to my secretary.

My forehead creased when she came in front of Jewel.Sa sobrang bilis ng lakad niya papunta kay Jewel ay dinig na dinig ko ang bawat hakbang ng paa niya sa ingay ng kaniyang suot na heels.

My secretary glanced at me.Ngumiti ako sakaniya at nginuso nalang ang kaibigan ko sa harap niya.

On our way here,I was greeted by some of employees and workers.Hindi ko alam kung mabilis ba nila akong nakilala o ano.Pero siguro ay dahil na rin iyon sa sekretarya na 'to na dati ay sekretarya pala ni mom.I thought she hired another secretary for me.But thank god,she didn't.
