"Hija, I'm not insulting you, I'm merely advising you since I'm older than you. Please don't take it the wrong way." Bawi ni Tito Miguel.

"Well then, Thank you Tito Miguel but next time save your advices. I don't need them." Sagot ko sabay labas ng cellphone ko at nagkunwaring busy na. Napakamot na lang ng ulo si Tito Miguel at nanahimik na din pero halata ko ang inis niya ng nagdadabog itong lumabas ng elevator. My mood instantly soured with that encounter.

"Clyde, in my office. Now." Aniko ang makarating na kami sa floor namin, Ramdam ko na lang ang pagsunod ni Clyde sa akin papasok ng opisina, pati na din ang pagsunod ng tingin sa amin ni Aria ay 'di nakaligtas sa akin. Pagkasara ng pinto ay hinarap ko siya kaagad.

"What do you know about the rumors circling around our employees? I know they are talking about us! I feel everybody's stupid glances." I said as I sat on my table and cross my legs. I saw his eyes dipped down and followed the movement of my legs and get stuck there, ogling my bare legs. The high slit almost baring my whole thigh. I rolled my eyes.

"Hey! Eyes up here!" Puna ko sa kanya, good thing he's so far from me. I saw his face reddened as his adam's apple bobbed.

"Maybe they already know." Maikling pahayag niya sabay lingon palayo sa glass window.

"Know what?" Inis na tanong ko. Everybody must not know about our secret marriage!

Nagkibit-balilat si Clyde na para bang balewala sa kanya kung pagtsimisan man siya ng lahat ng empleyado.

"Either they think we are lovers or they know we are married. Iyon lang naman ang iisipin nila. Does it bothers you?" Balik tanong niya sabay matamang tumitig siya sa akin na animo'y importante ang magiging sagot ko sa tanong niya.

Does it bothers me?! Hell yes!

Napabuntong-hininga ako. I might know my answer but it doesn't mean I have to share my thoughts with Clyde. Umikot ako para maupo sa swivel chair ko. Sinundan naman ako ni Clyde na para bang gusto niyang sagutin ko ang tanong niya.

"Does it?" Tanong niyang muli.

"It's unimportant, I won't confirm anything anyway. They are not worth my validation. Bring me my coffee." Aniko sabay buklat ng mga dokumeto sa aking harapan.

But deep down I know I'm disturbed with the idea that my employees are gossiping behind my back! Ayokong malaman nila na pinatulan ko ang sekretarya ko, for heavensakes!

"Yes ma'am!" Sarkastikong sagot ni Clyde. Napatingin ako sa pabalang na sagot niya pero kinunutan niya ako ng noo sabay irap at mabilis na naglakad palabas ng opisina ko. I sneered at his blatant display of annoyance.

"Hey! Did you just scowl at me?!" Sita ko sa lalaki pero hindi niya ako pinansin at tuloy pa ring lumabas ng opisina ko at malakas na sinara ang pinto. Napahilot ako ng noo ko.

Mukhang lumalaki na ang ulo ng secretary ko!

Clyde was filing documents in my cabinet when I get the chance to observed him. I admit,  he is a little bit handsome, just a little... incy-wincy.. tiny bit. And when you took off the eyeglasses and baduy clothes and that too much gel in his hair, he might look more than okay. But the thing that I'm curious about is why my heart beats a little extra whenever he's near. That bothers me a lot.

I mean...look at him?! Besides his sexy body, what is there to like? He's poor, no social standing, no class, no sense in fashion and for fvcksakes! he is a fvcking nerd!
