Cleopatra
Muli siyang napabuntong hininga. I guess he can't really take my naughtiness.
Siguro kung ibang tao lang ako, matagal na niya akong pinatalsik. Pero dahil sa anak ako ng family friend nila at ni-recommend ako ng Papa niya, he let me be. But if he really wanted to fire me, he can do whatever he wants because he have the full authority. He can defy his father since he's already the CEO of the company.
"Answer me correctly, Ms. Larraza."
Ms. Larraza na naman! Ang paasa talaga nitong si Odyssey. Matapos akong tawaging Cleo, hindi na muling inulit pa.
Masakit kaya!
I can't help but heave a sigh, too.
"Okay. I took this job because I want to. Nothing else." I said the lie like nothing.
Odyssey's not dumb. Malamang may idea na siya kung bakit ako nandito. But he have no choice. I'm sticking up here no matter what. Until the culprit has been caught. Until he's finally safe.
Hinilot niya ang kanyang sentido like he's too stressed.
"Okay. If you say so. By the way, Prepare for a one week trip in Palawan. We're going to meet our investor there and to regard some problems with the hotel branch."
Napaawang ang labi ko.
OMG! Sa wakas, may good news din. Yes! I'm going to see some ocean and fine sands again! I'm going to see the sun in its glorious state and the golden ember of sunset, the palm trees dancing by the beach!
Iniisip ko pa lang, gusto ko na agad sumayaw sa saya!
But..
"Palawan? Kakagaling ko lang doon, eh. Pwede bang boracay na lang muna? Next time na lang ang Palawan." I even have the guts to give him a peace sign.
He gave me a pointed look.
"Oo na!" nais kong mapanguso. "How about Monique? Ako ang sasama sa'yo sa meeting mo roon?"
"Yes, you will. And Monique can't come. She's pregnant. And sooner or later, you'll take her position so you better condition yourself."
Uy, ang haba ng sinabi, buti na lang naka-on ang recorder na dala ko.
Iginalaw niya ang swivel chair niya habang nakahawak sa ballpen niya. He looked sexy doing that. Parang gusto kong kumandong sa kanya sa upuan na 'yan.
I wonder how it would feel.
"And.. we'll go this after lunch by the way."
My eyes widened. Gusto kong mapanganga!
"Ano! Ba't 'di mo sinabi!"
He raised his other brow at me.
"Oo nga, sinasabi mo na ngayon. Pero sana tinext mo na lang para nakapaghanda ako ng mga dadalhin! Ilang araw ba tayo ro'n?"
"A week."
"O, a week pala! Anong gustong mong gawin ko roon? Maghubad the whole week?" Iningusan ko siya.
I saw how his lips made a slight smirk. He's hot doing that.
"You can't stay nude. Their are stores there." He said matter of factly.
"Wala akong pera." Ingos ko.
"I'll pay for you."
"Weh?"
