Maybe, One Day (The Six Ladies Series #1)

Kabanata 43

The next day, medyo maaga na ako. Nakakahiya na talaga sa buong department at natatakot ako baka mahalata nila ang kinikilos namin ni Ares.

I really want to avoid issues.

Good thing at wala akong Ares na nakita ngayong araw. I peacefully went straight into my floor at napansin na medyo konti pa lang ang tao doon. I guess, napaaga talaga ako.

"Good morning, ma'am." I smiled as I saw Emily. She's wearing her usual pencil skirt at shirt na may logo ng V.A Games.

"Kumusta 'yong date niyo ni sir?" bulong nito sa akin. Halos lumaki ang mata ko sa tanong nito.

"Date? We didn't--" I didn't finish my sentence because she cutted me off.

"Ide-deny mo pa si sir? Siya na nga mismo nagsabi sa'kin." she giggled. I gulped as I heard her remark. I can't believe na kahapon lang ako nagtrabaho dito at may nakakaalam na sa amin ni Ares.

We don't have a thing naman but that is so awkward, baka sabihin pa nila ang bias ni Ares which is actually true naman but I just want to become a normal employee.

I need to talk to him after my work.

Then, his words flashbacked into my mind. He told me na liligawan niya ako. He literally told that in front of me at hindi ako makapaniwala. I think he is really serious about me--about us.

"Aba, ngumingiti na. Nag kiss kayo no?" mausisang tanong ni Emily.

I almost forgot about her presence just by thinking Ares!

"No pero shh ka lang, okay?" I told Emily with matching hand gestures pa.

Emily giggled and gave me a thumbs up. After that nag proceed na ako sa trabaho since, we have our advance proposals gumawa kami ng iba't ibang assassin characters.

I spent almost 3 hours dahil sa isang character lang. We need to have atleast 5 characters na ise-send kay Emily and I am doing my best on every character that I make.

Since today is Friday gusto ko nang taposin ang ginagawa ko because I don't want to miss our sleepover sa bahay nina Patrice, minsan lang magyaya 'yon e.

It was 2 o'clock in the afternoon, a lot of employees skipped their lunch para hindi mag over time mamaya at isa na ako doon. I was working on my last character when I my phone vibrated.

I don't want somebody to interrupt my work kaya hindi ko na muna binasa ang message. I am hungry na din kaya I need to finish this as soon as possible.

"Yes!" I almost shouted when I finished my last character. Napalingon din ang iba sa'kin kaya I quickly apologized for disturbing them.
