Wakas

Wakas

I sighed and rested my neck at the headrest of the sofa. It's already 3 am and I'm still reading different documents about our company. I'm still in the office. Wala na si Papa dahil pinauwi na ni Mama kaya mag-isa na lang ako ngayon.

Teenagers on my age should be partying, and not like this. Kung wala lang ang mga dokumentong nasa harapan, siguradong nasa club na ako at umiinom. I drink alcohols not to get drunk, but to have fun.

My brother is not the one who will handle our business. Ayaw niya at sa ilang beses niyang pagtanggi, imposibleng hahayaan niya ang sarili na ma-involve sa ganitong negosyo.

He wants to pursue medicine and he's too hard headed for my father to control him. Kaya sa huli, kahit labag sa loob, hinahayaan na lang. It's also not a waste because he's too competitive in the field he chose.

It's very much different to me. I can't see any path for myself. The only thing I want to do is all about pleasure... clubbing and women. If my brother is ambitious, I'm not.

At dahil wala naman akong patutunguhan, sa akin na pinaplanong ipasa ang buong kompanya. I can't think of anything that I'm passionate about. I can't fight my father in giving me his company, just like my brother, because in the first place, I don't have dreams. I was mostly clouded with worldly things.

I have my share on my father's company. Pero dahil sa pagtanggi ng kapatid ko, sa akin na ibibigay lahat. I don't see it as a fortune, I can see it more as a burden and a responsibility to succeed in this certain field, just like my father.

At a very young age, I was immediately taught about the different sides of our company. And it's funny to know that when I started to grow older and I got more mature, I can see that I'm already passionate about what I'm doing.

Our business is only about airlines, but when I started handling our business, I was able to build multiple private airports under my name.

With those achievements, people sees me as a competitive person. Pero kung alam lang nila kung ano ako noon, siguradong hindi nila maiisip iyon.

"You have a new girlfriend?!" Sophie said aggressively.

It's already 10 pm and I'm still in my office. May plano na akong umuwi pero nagpapahinga lang saglit.

I slightly lifted my head and opened my eyes to look at her. Nadatnan ko siyang nasa harapan ng aking lamesa, nakatukod ang dalawang kamay at galit na nakatingin sa akin. I sighed and lazily goes back to my original position.

Every time I hooked up with girls, Sophie would always pop out of nowhere like an obsessive beast. Alas-dyis na pero nakaya niya pang sumugod dito.

"I don't do girlfriends," simpleng sabi ko.

I can only see her as a friend, an acquaintance specifically, even when she confessed that she likes me. I didn't accept her feelings. But still, she's demanding for a relationship. Iyon ang hindi ko maibibigay. I don't do relationships and I don't have plans to settle.

If she wants to be cuddled after being fucked, I can't give her that. Hindi ako ang taong hinahanap niya. That's disgusting.

"You never had a girlfriend for the past two weeks, I thought you're committed to me!"

She seduced and offered herself to me for multiple times that I can't even count. Pero kahit isang beses, hindi ko pinapatulan.

Not until, I was called by Dean on their hacienda. May plano siyang ipagawang bahay kaya pinapapapunta ako. He's not lucky to be my main priority. I also have plans in building a private airport there. But still, he needs to pay me triple for my service, of course.
