Chapter 11

#MSeries2

"I'll be home in an hour, dad. I haven't check it for a while. Alright, bye."

He put down his phone as soon as the call ended. Nakahilig na ako sa aking bintana habang naghihintay sa kanya na matapos. In my peripheral vision, he leaned over and touch something behind my seat.

"I'll adjust your seat so you can sleep."bulong niya sa gilid ko.

I felt my back slowly bent down making me half laying on my seat. Then, he drove the car again.

Being with him inside my car made me realized some things. This is how it feels like to be taken care of. To be noticed and somehow appreciated even just the shortest period of time. I may not know him nor he knows me but he was there. Virtually.

All my life I never asked for any of those things. Atensyon ni daddy, supurta ni daddy o kung ano pa. All I want is for him to see and realise that I am his only daughter. That he needs to atleast appreciate the things I've done for him. To satisfy him and honor him because his my dad. Pero tingin ko, kahit hingin ko man ang mga bagay na iyon ay hindi niya maibibigay. Dahil kung kaya niya, sana noong una palang ginawa niya na. But it's okay. I understand. I just hope I can accept and understand whatever reason he has to say.

I may understand everything for now but I know for myself that this patience I have has limitations. Sana lang huwag umabot sa punto na masagad ako bago pa ang eksplinasyon.

I've been holding my laughter. I had lunch with Mikaela in her condo earlier. Nasa couches niya na kami ngayon habang may sinusulat siya sa kanyang planner at discussion niya sa ship-in na kasunduan namin.

"I don't need your tactics, Mikaela..."putol ko sa kanya.

She rolled her eyes on me. "Ang arte mo! Tinutulungan kana nga,e!"

"We could just do the natural way so we won't look desperates in front of him."giit ko.

"Paano? Hindi nga kayo nag uusap. Try to strike a conversation whenever he's at your building."

"Nag uusap kami..."

"Talaga? Saan? Sa panaginip mo?"natatawa niyang saad dahil hindi makapaniwala.

I sighed. "We talked casually. Isang araw, nagkita kami sa party ni Tita Karel..."

"Deads! Tapos..."

I need to tell her what happened so she will stop doing that ship. Besides, joke lang naman para sa akin ang hamon ko sa kanya noon. All of those are just joke for me. And I wouldn't take the risks of her tactics cuz what if it's not effective? Ibang iba pa naman iyong si Carlos. Sobrang iba.

"Okay. Kung nag uusap naman pala kayo try to make it a little interesting..."she put a small place in between her index finger and thumb,"Try to say some flirty words..."

Napairap ako. "That's not gonna happen."

Napailing naman siya at nasapo ang noo."Ewan ko sayo, dear! Sa lahat ng shi-nip ko ikaw lang yata ang puro reklamo. Makisabay ka naman!"

I chuckled and it made her more annoyed. "I'll flirt him on my own. I won't be needing your tactics."bago siya iniwan roon na nakanganga sa narinig.

Galing ako sa isang meeting at nang makabalik ay inatupag agad ang pending na paperworks. I haven't noticed the time again. Nagpa order nalang rin ako kay Jackie ng snacks dahil  tinatamad akong bumaba sa café.

"Miss?"dungaw niya sa pintuan ko.

"Yes?"sagot ko habang nakatuon ang mga mata sa computer.

"Diba po nagpaschedule kayo sa spa? Ngayon na po 'yon."
