RUINED HEART(Company series#3)

C H A P T E R 10

The next day I acted differently, I shouldn't make myself friends with them, I'm not belong to them...

But I can't, I can't help myself for being nice to them. They are fun to be with.

"May dala akong meryenda! Tara na pag saluhan natin!" Saad ni Jorie, yung bakla na kasama namin noong naka raan.

"Ako rin meron!" Saad naman nung iba.

"Tara na Faith! Break time na oh!" Nag sitayuan na sila ngunit nanatili akong naka upo.

"Hoy babae! Huwag kana mag inarte diyan!"

"Wala akong dala, should I order some?"  I asked shyly.

"Hindi na kailangan! Marami ito, pag hahatian natin ito!"

"Nakaka hiya naman kung wala akong ambag," tumayo ako.

"Ganito nalang, wait for me. I'll buy some foods outside!"

"Hindi na nga! Ang kulit!" Hinila ako ni Jorie papunta sa mini kitchen namin dito sa floor.

Aedrix is in a meeting, I said my head is aching that's why I couldn't go with him.

And my colleagues said they are all new here in the company, they didn't even know that I'm one of their bosses.

They knew me as  a normal employee and Aedrix's secretary, and that's all.

Kumain kami ng mga dala nila at nahihiya talaga ako dahil wala manlang akong ambag, maybe I should treat them in lunch? Yeah, that what I'll do.

Nag tatawanan kami habang nag meryenda nang pumasok si Aedrix at nahuli ang eksena namin.

He walks slowly while his eyes glued on me. I shake my head and looked away.

He's very intimidating, even he looks so exhausted.

"E-engineer..." Natahimik kami at hinintay na maka lapit siya.

"Can I join you?" Tanong niya bago bumaling sa akin.

"Maayos na ba ang pakiramdam mo?" He asked huskily before he sat beside me.

"Bakit? May sakit ka?!" Gulat na tanong ni Irish.

I bit my lower lips, that's just my alibi so we can't have a time to spend with each other.

I smiled fakely and I slightly bowed my head.

"Y-yeah... Anyway, how's the meeting?" Pag iiba ko sa usapan, hindi ko alam kung bakit gusto ko siyang iwasan.

Mariin niya akong tinitigan, na tila ba ay binabasa ako bago huminga ng malalim at sinagot ako.

"Fine..." He said without looking at me because my workmates started to gave him a food.

Sa umagang iyun ay wala kaming ginawa kundi ang mag trabaho, ginagawa ko ang lahat para maiwasan siya.

"Faith..." Napa pitlag ako nang marinig ko ang boses niya sa intercom.

"Engineer..."

"I need you to the meeting later," narinig ko siyang bumuntong hininga, na tila ba ay may malaking problemang kinakaharap.
