Now Na

Sabi nila mahirap daw balansehin ang love at career.

Well, I guess it's true.

Mula nang maging kami ni Jake, nabawasan ang time ko sa work. Medyo demanding kasi si Jake. He wants us to see each other everyday. Wala naman akong reklamo kasi gusto ko rin namang nagkikita kami araw-araw. Di rin ako mapakali kung hindi ko siya nakikita bago ako umuwi ng bahay at the end of the day.

Probably, that's the reason why I didn't noticed that our bag entry was stolen the night before it was transported to the the location of the contest. Hinayaan ko lang si Minnie na gawin ang final checking na dapat ay ako ang gumawa.

Silly me.

It's no use to cry over spilt milk.

What happened is already a history.

What I need to do now is be more cautious next time and apologize to my boss for disappointing him.

"I'm really sorry Dennis."

I'm very upset sa result ng competition. Dahil nawala ang official bag entry namin. Iyong gawa nina Micah ang ginamit sa contest. Pero di rin nanalo.

"Ganon talaga sa competition." He said. Trying to console me here in his office kasi pinatawag niya ako. "Maybe it's not yet time for Elegance to win again." He said in a serious tone.

"Nahihiya ako sa iyo Dennis. You hired me for this purpose and yet I did not deliver."

"Well. you're right. Pero tapos na iyong contest and we should move forward and prepare for next year's battle. That's the best we can do."

Ang hirap i-absorb ng sinabi niya when all I can do is to blame myself for loosing.

"May balita na ba kung anong nangyari at kung nasaan na iyong nawawalang bag?"

"It is still under investigation. Pero may lead na raw sila, ayaw pa nga lang i-disclose."

"Keep me posted about that."

"Definitely."

"On the other hand, may idi-discuss sana ako sa iyo."

"I thought it's about the competition result. May iba pa pala. Ano ba iyon?"

"I'm not sure if this will be a good or a bad news for you. But I want you to think about it."

"Kinakabahan naman ako sa entrada mo. Ano ba talaga iyon?"

"Well, Elegance has this long time partnership proposal sa Infinity in Europe. It was highly confidential. Mostly, higher ups lang ang may alam. Ilang taon na ring nililigawan ng Elegance ang Infinity para matuloy na ang partnership and luckily, this year natuloy na."

"Wow! That's good news. I had my internship sa Infinity London. I could say that it is a very good move for Elegance to have partnership with them."

"Tama ka d'yan. Lalaki ang market ng Elegance if our bags will be labeled under Infinity pagdating sa global market. With that, we need to establish our office there right away. I need people to represent our company sa London."

Uh-uh! Parang nahihimigan ko na ang gustong sabihin ni Dennis. I hope I'm wrong.

Nagpatuloy ako sa pakikinig, His voice was full of enthusiasm. "I want you to be a part of the team."

Sinasabi ko na nga ba!

"You had your internship at Infinity at may edge ka na dahil nakatrabaho mo na sila."
