1 week…
MEDYO magaan ang pakiramdam ni Patience pagkarating niya sa trabaho. After their little start over a week ago, sabay silang bumalik sa site and finished their work. He insisted na ihatid siya pauwi, but she refused. They are civil for a while. They haven't seen each other since then, mas lalong naging busy ito. But today is another day and she feels good. Maybe because they'll see each other again.
"Good Morning sunshine," bati ni Luke sa likod niya.
"Good Morning." She answered and smiled.
"It looks like, maganda ang gising natin ngayon," he stated.
"A little," matipid niyang sagot.
"So, Patience. Um… Can I take you to lunch later?" He said and smiled slyly.
They have been working together for a week. He is very attentive to her. He is a nice guy, a little flirt and now he is already asking her out. Somehow Patience felt a little bit weird. She thought, that this could be her payment, dahil binantayan siya nito noong nasa clinic siya. "Sure," she answered.
Lumiwanag ang mukha nito. "Good. Tara let's start."
Sabay sila pumasok sa conference, andoon na ang team niya. They started working, giving out ideas. Si Luke ay labas pasok sa conference, giving orders dahil nagsisimula na ang construction. Sinusunod na nila ang design niya. She finished it a little early than the given deadline. Sa secretary ni Blaze niya ito ibinigay at kinabukasan, she gave a nod to start, according to him.
This past few days was peaceful for her. Feeling niya, matatapos ng maaga ang project na 'to "Patience, mag-break muna kami sandali" paalam ni Joy. One of her team.
She looked at her wrist watch. 10:00 am. "Sige, 15 minutes lang," sagot niya. Naiwan siyang mag-isa sa loob when someone knocked."It's open."
She didn't bother to look kung sino man iyon. Then may naglapag sa harapan niya ng mini-carousel. It was Blaze. "Hi," bati nito.
Napatayo siya bigla. "Hi, ano 'yan?"
"Mini Carousel," he answered.
She rolled her eyes. "Alam ko kung ano iyan. I mean, para saan 'yan?"
"Pasalubong ko. I was on a business trip for a week. Then nakita ko ito. I don't know why, pero naalala kita. Plus, I saw your mini carousel necklace And peace offering ko na rin," he explained.
"I love carousel. Thank you," she glanced down and took the mini carousel in the table.
"Where is everybody?" anito habang nakatingin sa paligid.
"On a break." Nilagay niya sa paper bag ang hawak.
"So, since we are on a truce and friends…"
"You are my boss," she cut him off.
"… A boss and his employee can be friends. Sabay na tayo maglunch" it doesn't sound like a request but more on a command.
"I'm sorry, I can't, kasabay ko na si Luke eh. Next time?" she apologized.
His expression changed, para hindi nagustuhan ang narinig. "You and Luke, huh?"
Dumating na ang team niya, kasama si Luke bago pa man siya nakasagot. "Sir, long time no see," ani Paul.
"Pare, dumating ka na pala," bati ni Luke at ibinigay ang dalang juice in can kay Patience at tinanggap naman ito. "Thank you."
