After an hour, nafamiliarize ko na ang sarili ko sa lahat ng laman ng envelope. Sinimulan ko na rin ang pinapagawa niyang document nang bigla siyang nagmessage.
Warren: Ready to go?
Denisse: Just a few minute more to shut down the computer.
Warren: Ok. I'll wait.
Nacoconscious na naman ako siguradong nakatingin na naman siya sa akin. Lumipas na kaya ang kasungitan niya? Maggagabi na pala. Baka kaya siya bumabait dahil hapon na.
Denisse: Ready.
Warren: I really hope you are ready.
Denisse: To go?
Warren: For me.
Breathe in. Breath out.
Denisse: What?
Warren: I really hope you are ready for me to drive you home.
Kung pwede lang sana balibagin ng cellphone ang lalaking ito ginawa ko na.
Denisse: Ok.
Warren: So? Stand up already.
Denisse: Fine!
Di ko alam na nasa harapan ko na pala siya. Masyado akong pre-occupied sa mga pantasya ko na hindi ko namalayan. Pagtayo ko ay muntikan na akong matumba sa pagkagulat. He steadied me at nagtama ang aming mga mata. I saw his mesmerizing blue eyes again. Time stopped when he dipped his head and kissed my cheeks.
"Thank you for being patient with me Denisse."
"Huh? What?"
"You passed my test."
"What test?"
Nakakahypnotize ang tingin niya sa akin. Nakaka-high.
"Nothing. Come on."
Naguguluhan man ako, hindi na ako tumutol nang kinuha niya ang mga kamay ko at tuluyan na kaming lumabas ng opisina. Magkahawak pa rin kami ng kamay pagbaba ng elevator.
"This is my fiancee by the way. Make sure she uses the private lift tomorrow and no one should bother her." Bilin ni Warren sa guard na natulala lang at napatitig sa amin.
Hanggang makarating sa bahay ay hindi niya binitiwan ang kamay ko. Hindi man kami nag-uusap, ramdam kong may bumabagabag sa kaniya. Gayun din naman sa akin. Hindi ko na kasi maintindihan ang nangyayari. Kung pagpapanggap lang lahat ng ito, bakit iba ang nararamdaman ko?
"I haven't shown you the rest of the house yet or introduced you to the household."
May pinindot siyang isang device. Makalipas ang ilang minuto, naglabasan ang apat na babaeng nakauniform at isang babae na medyo may edad na parang siya ang supervisor ng mga ito. Mayroon ring dalawang lalaki na nakayuko lamang at hindi tumingin sa amin.
"This is Denisse. My fiancee. She will be your boss in this household from now on. Follow everything she says and do everything she wants."
"Yes Sir."
"Warren, can you tell me their names?" Binulungan ko si Warren.
"You can talk to them tomorrow. I'll give you one like this. This is connected to their rooms. I'll teach you how to use this over dinner."
