Silent Chase (Cita Tucana Series #1)

It's nice to meet you again."

My eyes pierced through hers. I heard some hushing sounds behind us, siguro ay pinag-uusapan na kami. We were still staring at each other, mukhang ayaw niya na ring magsalita.

"So, shall we start?" Natauhan lang ako ng biglang tumikhim si Sir Velasco kaya napaupo na rin kaming dalawa.

"Let's discuss the full presentation about the proposal designs for the MVEX hospital." Nauna nang tumayo si Juliette para sa powerpoint. Tahimik naman akong nakaupo, pero sa gilid ng mata ko napansin kong panay ang titig sa'kin ni Twinkle.

"Let's start with the factors to consider for the design and the construction," She started. "Well of course, hospitals provide a wide range of services and it is also made up of many functional units, I must say that they are the most complex of building types. I do believe that creating a homelike or an attractive environment can be considered as marketing tool and and it can enhace the public image of the MVEX itself."

"We'll first discuss the aesthetic considerations," Ipinakita niya sa buong audience iyong mga napili niyang designs. "After my topic, we can now share suggestions and discuss the whole idea for the firm and lastly, we'll disperse afterwards."

"The generic room sizes as well as plans follow a modular concept of space planning," She started walking in pace, back and forth. "The instance positioning and the accesibility of medical facilities are accessed in a wide array in different way."

"What's the use of it when the location of support spaces can be in minimizing distance?" Biglang tanong ng isa sa mga audience. "I mean, we're talking about the MVEX building here. It's not like it can still run for the top ranking for the biggest hopsital chain, we're not yet even for the construction. Can you make sure it will beat its competitors?"

"It should have well-planned directions for future expansions, if you're worrying about the additional enhancement in the future." Seryosong sagot ni Juliette. "But we're merely talking about patient care and the efficiency for the staffs and the whole medical management. Business can be set aside, but the life and the improvement for serving one's need is my point here."

"I agree to Miss Plavina, we should stick to our mission and that is to give them proper service and a therapeutical environment," Humilig sa upuan si Miss Carelle. "Hindi naman pwedeng unahin natin yung objective na mapasama lang tayo doon sa rankings. The best we can start with is a good layout design itself."

"Clever and elegant type, nice catch." Biglang bulong sa'kin ni Sir Velasco at napatango naman ako habang tumataas pa ang kilay. Napangisi siya sa'kin bago napailing.

"There will be attention to the proportions, scale as well as the details. But, the increase use of natural light and texture will be more efficient than dull tones." She pointed out the whole plan. "A bright, open and home-like patient rooms can also be suitable for kids. The compatibility of exterior design with its physical surroundings would be as its finest."

"What can you possibly create to the extent of providing a more easy access in regards to its intented detailed functions?" Biglaang nagtaas ng kamay 'yung isa sa financial head. "We badly need to hear an efficient hospital lay-out. Don't you think, President Milan?"

Napansin naming nakatulala lang si Twinkle. Nang sikuhin siya ng kaniyang katabi ay tsaka lang siya napakurap bago tumikhim.

"A-ahm, yes. I do a-agree." Sabi niya bago lumingon sa'kin. Mabuti na lang at mabilis akong tumingin sa mismong projector screen.
