Brielle Aiko's POV
Inayos ko ang sukbit ng bag ko habang hawak-hawak naman sa isang kamay ang folder na may lamang documents about sakin. I have actually gone to 3 company buildings already but it was so hassle. Marahas na lamang ang pinakawalan kong paghinga. I sat down at the bench while remembering what they have said.
“We can't hire you, Ms. McGrey. You're a Princess.”
“Please, accept my apology, Princess. A woman like you should not apply to this kind of work. You deserve more.”
“I'm afraid that you might not get to used in this kind of work.”
Napairap na lamang ako sa kawalan at inis na pinagkrus ang braso ko. It's damn frustrating. I'm so stress. Just because I am a daughter of a King, I'm not able to do a low work. Worst, I shouldn't be working. Tsk!
“Wala pa nga akong napapatunayan, deserve ko na agad ang mas higit pa? Tss.” inis ko na lamang na sambit.
Sometimes, it's hard to be in this kind of position. Masyado nilang ginagalang at kinatatakutan ang titulong meron ako. Kung bakit ba naman kasi nakilala akong ganito? I should be living in a normal life.. kung hindi ko lang nalaman na ang ama ko ay isang hari pala. Tsk.
Napangiwi na lamang ako hanggang sa magring ang cellphone ko kaya naman kinuha ko yun sa bag ko at tinignan ang caller. Bahagya pa akong natigilan nang si Theo yun. Nagdalawang-isip pa ako kung sasagutin ko o hindi pero sa huli ay sinagot ko pa rin.
“H-Hello...” sabi ko.
“Hi, Brielle. Kamusta ang araw mo ngayon? Ano, may tumanggap na ba sayong company?” he asked.
Natiim ko na lamang ang labi ko. “Unfortunately, wala pa. I wish I don't have a title.” sabi ko at napasandal na lamang sa kinauupuan ko. “They wouldn't hire me just because I am a Princess.” I said.
“You're so lucky because you're a Princess, you know? They are praising you that's why and I praise you, too.” sabi niya.
Dahil dun ay napairap na lamang ako sa kawalan. “What I am to be praised? I'm not goddess.” I said.
There I heard him chuckled. “I like that kind of yours, Brielle. But anyways, I will ask Dad to put some slot for you. You know, Brielle, you can apply to our company. Come on?”
“Ayaw ko.” agad kong sagot. “I'm sure you will give me a special treatment. I don't want that. I want to be fair. Ngayon pa lang ako nag-eexplore sa buhay ko so I'll find a work where no one will give me a special treatment, alright?” I said.
He sighed. “Hays. After nating grumaduate, naging independent ka na. You won't even let me fetch you. I can't even court you like I always do. Anyways, babawi ako sayo. Babawi ako.” sabi niya.
“O-Okay...” sabi ko at pilit na lamang na ngumiti. “Babye na, Theo. I still need to look for job.” I said.
“Okay. Take care. Update me, okay?” he said at the phone call.
“I will. Bye..”
Matapos yun ay binaba ko na ang tawag. Napabuntong hininga na lamang ako. Theo won't stop courting me. I have to tell him that I can't answer him. I can't be his girlfriend. But how will I tell him? Parang umaatras ang dila ko.
Tumayo na lamang ako at nagtungo kung saan nakapark ang sasakyan ko. Sumakay ako at nagbyahe patungo sa AudTea Lines. It's past 12 in the afternoon already and I haven't eaten yet. Nang makarating ay bumaba na ako at pumasok sa loob ng shop. Nagtungo ako sa counter at umorder ng milktea and fries. Ate Audrey and Ate Nashi are not here. Syempre, may anak at pamilya na sila. Saming lahat na magkakaibigan, ako na lang ang single. Siyempre, ako din naman ang pinakabata. Hindi naman pati ako nagmamadali sa pag-ibig.
