Midas' Touch [COMPLETED]

Chapter 4

"Hmm, what about those in the cartolinas? Let us see them too, Miss Montecristo," Mr. Reyes.

Tumango si Kalonice at kinuha ang limang cartolina. Bago lamang ang mga ito dahil ginawa niya ito sa New York. Ilang buwan ang inabot niya sa paggawa ng mga ito. Four out of the five cartolinas have a pair of symbols. Meaning to say, magkadugsong ito. That makes the total of projects three.

"WOW!" Ang tanging lumabas sa bibig nila Mr. Reyes at Larry nang buklatin niya mula sa pagkakarolyo ang cartolina.

"This is..."

Halos lumuwa na din ang mga mata ni Midas sa sobrang pagkamangha. Their jaws are on the floor. Now he admits, his father was right. Kalonice is really better than him when it comes to draughting! He could not imagine that there will be a person who could think such images and draw it. A mixture of elegance, modernity and uniqueness ending to be extraordinary. They are out of words. Kalonice is on a different level.

Larry is so blessed that he got to know her. Like Kalonice, her talent and mind are gems!

Larry rolled them again and hugged the cartolinas, "I'm hiding these. Miss Kalonice, you should relax. We will put your works in an auction this weekend so you must prepare. I will discuss more things about your internship to you later. For now, let's finish what we have left earlier," sabi niya at malapad na ngumiti. Para bang inaangkin na nito ang mga cartolina at ayaw na niyang bitawan. He will keep them.

Inirapan siya ni Midas. They moved on from the shock and recovered themselves safely at ipinagpatuloy ang usapan nila kanina with Mr. Reyes. It took them half an hour before they finalized everything.

Midas is now in the computer with Kalonice's draft to make a blueprint of it. Kalonice then, on the other hand, is talking to Larry.

"Miss Montecristo, didiretsuhin na kita. Since you are graduating already soon, are you willing to work here?" Seryosong sabi ni Larry.

Walang pagdadalawang isip at hesitasyong tumango si Kalonice. "Yes, Sir." Larry smiled.

"Then, you will continue your internship with us and once you graduated and have your lincense, I will make you my employee officially."

"Yes, Sir. I understand." Malapad ang ngiti ang ipinaskil ni Kalonice sa kaniyang mga labi.

"I guess Midas told you about the income partition? That the 60% will be yours and the 40% will be ours? You don't have any objections about that, I suppose."

"Yes, Sir."

"Once your drafts are bought, and the building began, you will get a 15% bonus once the draft bought from you was established and finished."

Napasinghap si Kalonice. "T-Talaga po!?"

"Yes, Miss. All our architects get paid the same as long as their works are erected."

"M-Maraming salamat po!" May tuwang sabi ni Kalonice. Nag-uumpaw ang tuwa niya. Hindi niya lubos akalain na makakatanggap siya ng ganitong uri ng grasya. Napakaswerte niya at nakilala ni Larry Zeno Yzaguirre ang kaniyang mga gawa at nagustuhan ng sobra. At ngayon, nandito na siya. Ito na ang simula ng magandang pamumuhay nila ng kaniyang mga kapatid. Giginhawa na din ang buhay nila. Sa wakas.

Naging mapayapa na din ang kumpanya sa wakas. Napaabot na kasi nila sa mga tao na magkaka-auction para sa lahat ng mga gawa ni Kalonice at lahat ay welcome. Marami na ang nagpalista at nagpareserba ng upuan. Larry already settled everything and they will held it in New York. They will go there through their private plane with Kalonice ngayong darating na Sabado. And of course, once her works are bought ay diretsong kontratahan na kaagad.
