Sais' Fiery Romance (4th Gen #9)

Chapter 29

She hissed when she can not contact Sais. Isang linggo na rin niya itong hindi maabot-abot. She understand that he's busy, hindi na rin bago sa kanila na hindi sila mapag-abot ng ilang linggo dahil sa kanya-kanyang trabaho but this time she's bothered knowing that they're not okay the last time they saw each other.

"Have you asked Dirk?" Tanong niya kay Kriz.

Tumango ang sekretarya.

"He's currently on abroad, Dirk wasn't clear on his words but he said that Mr. Benjamin is handling branches out there, hindi rin daw makakauwi agad-agad dahil may pupuntahan pang ibang mga bansa si Mr. Benjamin."

She sighed and removed her glasses. Hinilot niya ang sintido niya dahil ilang gabi na rin siyang walang masyadong tulog.

"Ma'am, kumain po ba kayo ng lunch?" Nag-aalalang tanong ni Kriz.

She forgot, pati breakfast ay nakaligtaan niyang kumain.

"I'm fine, just bring me coffee here." Utos niya.

Nakita niya ang pag-aalangan ni Kriz pero sumunod rin naman ito.

Nagpatuloy siya sa trabaho niya para maalis sa utak niya si Sais. She need distraction and being busy with work is an effective move.

"Have you seen, Maegan?---uh, sorry for the informal approach, Miss." Renzo asked hurriedly as he abruptly open the door.

"Bakit? Anong nangyari?" Nagtatakang tanong niya.

"It's been a week, I can't find her." Namomroblemang saad nito.

"She's on leave," imporma niya rito.

"Do you know where's she right now?" Tanong nito.

Alam niya, Maegan told her. But it seems that her friend was hiding from Renzo.

"I don't know." Sagot niya at napahilot sa sintido ng biglang nandilim ang paningin niya.

"Miss, are you okay?" Nagtatakang tanong nito at nilapitan siya.

"Yeah..wala lang akong kain pa." Sagot niya.

Shoot, she even forgot her dinner last night.

"I'll bring you to the clinic,"

Lumapit ito sa kanya at hinawakan siya sa balikat sakto namang bumukas ang pinto.

"Crosette---"

They all froze when Sais entered her office. Ang kaninang puno ng pag-aalalang mukha ng binata ay napalitan ng lamig ng makita ang kamay ni Renzo sa balikat niya. Agad namang lumayo ang lalaki.

"Maam, pinatawag ko po si Mr. Benjamin kasi nag-aalala ako sa 'yo." Kagat-labing singit ni Kriz.

Tumiim ang bagang ng binata at mapaklang natawa.

"Seems that she's fine, Kriz. I'll be on my office." Mapaklang saad ng binata at umalis.

Damn it. Why does they're always on the situation where he can misinterpret what's happening?

"Uh, I think he's jealous." Opinion ni Renzo.

She sighed and massaged her temple, nawala nga ang hilo niya sa gutom, napalitan naman 'yun ng konsumisyon.

Tumayo siya at tinungo ang opisina ng binata. She saw him on his swivel chair, closed eyes while his finger is pinching his nose bridge.

"Sais..." She called him.

Dumilat ang mata ng binata at lumingon sa kanya. Naroon pa rin ang lungkot at lamig doon.

"Ah, earlier, that was just----"
