Salve Corporations:
Good morning!
We would like to set an appointment for the contract signing tomorrow during the conference meeting.
Thank you!
Naisave ko na ang number na 'to in case of emergency. Galak na galak akong umakyat sa opisina ni daddy para ibalita ito. When I got there, naroon na si Rocco at Haide sa harap niya. Haide's face is a bit happy when she faced me.
"Dad, I received a message from SC and they're..."
Pinutol ni daddy ang sasabihin ko at naglakad paharap sa amin. "Yes, Martina. Actually, I received there E-mail earlier so I called Rocco to formally congratulate him. Alam mo naman sa murang edad ay talagang marunong na makipag deal. Good job, young man..."sabay tapik sa braso ni Rocco na tanging titig lang ang ginawad sa akin.
A dreadful poison scattered all over my body. Alam kong si Rocco ang nakipag negosyo sa kanila pero may parte rin naman ako roon. No matter how small it was, it's counted. All my life I never felt such envy to things like this. Pero ngayon parang sobra na. I can't just say anything now specially when that the bailed on my throat hurts.
Maiintindihan ko. Kasi kaya ko pa naman magtimpi. Kaya ko pa naman itago lahat ng disappointments ko towards daddy. And one thing I'll forever remember is that I am powerless when it comes to him.
"Dad..."
"Shall we go for a toast tonight, hijo?"aniya kay Rocco.
"H-how about do it tomorrow at the contract signing para double celebration, Aryel?"
Haide said wearily. Nagkatinginan kami pero agad siyang nag iwas at ngumiti ng malaki kay Rocco.
They're so happy to look at. It's like I'm the who's not the only direct family in here. If feels like I'm watching a family movie here. So happy.
I turned my back on them and went to my office. Iniyak ko ang lahat sa loob ng aking opisina.
"Ano na namang drama 'yan?"
I called Mikaela to asked I if can stay in her condo for a while. We ate dinner together and when we're done, nasa terrace na kami ng kwarto niya. I'll go home naman tonight but late.
Nangalumbaba ako sa bakal na lamesa kaharap ang isang bote ng alak. Sabi niya, mailalabas ko raw ang tunay kong emosyon kung iinom kami. May dalawang baso na para sa akin at para sa kanya. She got her first glass while I was still in half of mine.
"Hindi ko lang maintindihan si dad..."sa huli'y huminga akong malalim.
"Alin do'n?"
"Tomorrow is the contact signing of Salve Corporations bilang investors sa amin..."
"And?"
"I made that negotiation first! Kung hindi lang high standards ang lintik na higher boss nila ako sana ang magpapatuloy no'n!" I cried.
I wiped the tears on my cheek and drink my liquor. Para saan pa't nagmamay ari kami ng alak.
"Hindi mo naman pala tinuloy pero bakit may contract signing na magaganap?"she frantically asked.
I poured another on my glass again. "Si Rocco ang tumapos no'n. But I was with him..."
She gave me a laugh. "Parang alam ko na yata ang dahilan mo."
Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay.
"Nagselos ka kay Rocco, right? Cuz your dad gave him so much praises for small things but when it comes to you..."
