There were already a lot of people when Sejun and his team arrived, mostly familiar faces from the different offices.
"There they are, kala ko di na sila dadating"
They heard Vester so they headed to his direction. He is smiling, excited to let them meet the new Marketing Head.
Someone very familiar to him stands beside Vester. Tall, pale, and handsome. Sejun must admit, he missed Justin and couldn't help but smile. It's as if the grudge he has for Justin for forgetting about him after that night is gone.
"And Sej, this is Justin de Dios, the new Marketing Head and yeah the only son of Mr. Alejandro de Dios."
Justin de Dios. Son of Alejandro de Dios.
His smile quickly faded, like he is meeting a stranger in a very bad light. Sejun suddenly remembers everything he went through by saving the life of this man in front of him. The wounds he had seemed aching again.
Justin de Dios. He felt dumb hearing the name, he was a fool risking his own life saving the man who might be the one who killed his parents. "How the f*ck did this happen?" he cursed at himself.
If the eyes could kill, then Justin might have died right there and then. Justin noticed a change in Sejun's expression hearing his full name. He was even waiting for a handshake but it didn't happen. He thought of Jillian and remembers how this Sejun and his stepmother cheated with his Dad. But by the way Sejun looks at him with that judging, piercing eyes, he feels the other way around. "Ano to? Ba't parang ako ang may kasalanan?" Justin thought.
"Uhm guys? I think you both know each other. Tama ba?" Vester couldn't help but interrupt.
"Hindi po sir Vester, kamukha lang po pala." Sejun faked a smile this time. "Sir Justin, nice meeting you po" He extended his hand to Justin.
Justin was confused for a moment but still accepted the other's cold handshake.
"N-nice meeting you din, Mr. Nase"
" Sejun na lang po sir"
"Sige S-sejun"
"All right" Vester talked loudly so the crowd could hear him. "Let's eat na guys, back to work tayo at 2 pm"
The crowd cheered for that extended lunch break.
