Mistake Turned Into A Blessing (ON-HOLD)

Kabanata 2

" This part will be the front part and 700 meters away will be the........ "

Engr. Vergara is talking to Mr.Lee who just been arrived a while ago about the lot and the measurements of the the mall in front of me.

I was a bit shock when I saw him getting out of his car a while ago, he's wearing a white polo long-sleeve fold at his elbow with his black coat and black jeans. Makikita mo talaga sa mga mukha niya may lahi siya, katatamtamang singit ang kanyang mga mata, matatangos ang ilong at sakto lamang ang pagkaka hulma ng kanyang panga. Maganda din ang pagkakahubog ng kanyang katawan kaya masasabi mong marami ring babaeng nagkakandarapa sa kanya.

All I thought he's a business man aged forty to forty-five but I was wrong he's so damn young to be a business man who build his own mall at the aged of twenty-nine! Dalawang taon lang ang tanda niya sa akin. This is my first time seeing him since ang nakakausap ko lang naman palagi ay yung sekretarya niya.

I just stay at the back  while following them to give them space to talk. My mind is flying to the thought of my son while looking to Kyle who's busy explaining the flow of contraction to Mr. Lee. He's still handsome even though his serious.  He's just exactly looks like him, my son. Kanina nang dumating ako at naabutan ko siya ay sinalubong niya lang ako nang malalamig niyang mga mata,nagbati-an lang kami pagkatapos ay umalis na siya upang e check and contraction site, parang wala lang sa kanya yung nangyari noong sabado ng gabi.

" Ms. Juarez? ... " my thoughts were distracted by the voice of Mr.Lee

Hindi ko namalayan na malayo na pala ang nililipad ng isip ko at bahagya na akong naiwan sa kanila, hindi ko na napapansin na kanina pa pala nila ako tinatawag. I looked at them and noticed that they're already looking at my direction.

" Are you listening Architect Juarez? " the voice of Kyle slapt me to come back to my senses. I immediately stand straight and smile at them to hide my embarrassment.

" I'm sorry Mr. Lee" I bow a little and look at him

" It's okay Ms. Juarez, By the way cut the formalities just call me Liam. " he said and give me a sweet smile before offering his hand. I quickly accepts his hand.

" Katherine Juarez..." pagpapakilala ko habang nakikipagkamay kamay sa kanya

" Katherine....beautiful name, just like you. Can I call you Kath then?  "

" Sure, No problem Liam " I answered him that made him smile

I heard a small cough beside us so i immediately take back my hand and gave Liam a smile.

" As I was saying, I want to change the entrance of the building, instead of having one door every entrance and exit, i want to make it two but for Senior Citizen's and PWD only. We can have it in both sides, what do you think Kath? " he faced me while explaining

" Yes, it's a good idea. Mas mabuti narin yon para hindi sila mahirapan once they enter and exit "

I just smiled and nodded on what he's saying. Napansin kong tahimik lang si Kyle habang kinakausap ako ni Liam, binalewala ko nalang ito at tinuon ko ang attensyon sa kausap ko.

" So I guess, till we met again Kath. May meeting pa pala kasi ako kaya hindi na ako magtatagal. Kayo na bahala ni Engineer dito. " paalam niya sa amin.

" Thank you for trusting Mr. Lee " Kyle said bago namin hinatid si Liam sa sasakyan niya.

Sabay kaming bumalik sa site ni Kyle, tahimik lang kami habang naglalakad nang bigla siyang magsalita.

" Next time Architect Juarez, I hope you'll step aside flirting while doing your job " humarap siya habang nakalagay ang mga kamay sa kanyang bulsa.
