''SAIS!'' she shouted my name, and I don't know what to do. This is really my death. My love is giving birth to our youngest child, and I don't know how to take the pain from her. I don't want to see her in pain, but...

''Mahal, umire ka lang'' sabi ko sa kanya habang nakahawak ng mahigpit sa kamay niya.

She's holding me so tight, na parang mababali na ang buto ko dahil sa higpit.

''Push it more, Gianna. I can see the baby from here'' sabi ni Savannah. She's my wife's obstetrician. Buti at siya ang nakuha ng Lauro'ng 'yon. Malaki ang tiwala ko kay Savannah.

''Bwiset ka, Sais! Halos mawalan na ako ng ulirat nang ipinanganak ko iyang kambal mo tapos eto pa ngayon! Tanginamo!'' sigaw niya sa akin habang umiire.

I made a face. I don't know how to react.

Hindi ko naman kasalanan eh. Kasalanan ko bang sobrang sarap niya? Dapat ang sisihin niya ang mga magulang niya.

''Why me? Kasalanan ko bang masarap ka? It's your Parents faul---'' Pintuol niya kaagad ako.

''Tumahimik ka kung ayaw mong layasan kita pagkatapos nito!'' sigaw niya pa ulit.

''Ay joke'' Ang high blood naman kasi eh.

''Push a little bit harder, Gianna. Isang ire nalang'' Savannah said, and Gianna obliged.

''AHHHHHH!'' she shouted in full force, and I know how hard it is. Shouting your lungs out.

I'm so proud of having her and loving her so much. She caught my attention the first time she came to my office.

''Boss, the next is on her way''

I was playing with my pen. I am going to interview someone for the secretary position today, and I expect her or him to be a hardworking person. I don't like a person who's very lame. They annoy me.

I heard my sliding door open, and when I glanced at the sliding door area, I saw a gorgeous woman in front of me. Walking towards me.

Fuck! May fiancée na ako, but this woman is a goddess! She sat down in front of me.

''I will ask you directly'' I said. I don't know what I am feeling right now, but I feel so amused. ''Why are you applying for this job? Are you fit for this job? Are you deserving to be my secretary?''

My eye narrowed when I saw her think about what she was going to say. I bet this is her first job. I saw her application, and this is her first job, and damn. Parang ayaw ko na siyang pakawalan.

Damn this womanizer side of me. I need to focus on Diane, as I promised her brother.

''I'm not sure if I deserve this, Sir'' My eyebrow went up. What is she saying? Gusto niya bang hindi matanggap sa trabaho? ''But I do know that I need this, and I believe that if you need anything, you'll do everything to deserve it.''

That was impressive. Ngayon lang ako nakarinig ng ganyang sagot. I hired her immediately, kahit kulang ang sagot niya.

She had been my secretary for three years. As the years go by, pakiramdam ko ay nag-iiba na ako. I can't even drink alcohol because of her. Pinagbawalan niya ako at agad naman akong sumunod. I don't know why or how she did that.

''Boss, these are all the reports for this. month. Mr. Santini wants to set up a meeting with you. He wants to expand his land with your help.'' I looked at her. She's a goddess, and I can't stop my heart from beating so fast.

Damn it, Ms. Molina! You're making me Insane. I said in my thoughts

''Hey, Gianna'' Tawag ko nang makabalik ako sa huwisyo. Nagtama ang mga kilay ko nang makita ko ang pagtutok niya sa akin.
