Take My Side (Book II)

New Beginning

I'm eating a burger while driving..
Tanghali na rin pala at medyo madami ng sasakyan sa kalsada.

After few more minutes of driving nakarating na ako sa Office ni Daddy.
Dumiretso ako sa receptionist..

"Hi, where's president office here?" tanong ko sa babaeng andon..

"At the 36th floor. Do you have any appointment Ma'am?" magalang na tanong nya..

"Well.. I'm just her daughter. Hehe" i smiled sweetly to her at pinakita ang ID ko.

"Ma'am Jillian! Welcome po.." yumuyuko pa siyang nahingi ng sorry sakin..

"It's okay.. No worries!" nakangiting sagot ko sa kanya. Nakita ko naman ang sign of relief sa muka nya.

"I'll go ahead! See you around." paalam ko dito at nagtungo na sa office ni Daddy.

"Ow! My Crazy Lazy Daughter! Finally.." sarcastic na bati sakin ni Daddy..

"Hi Dad! I miss you!!" masayang bati ko sa kanya and gave him a warmth hug.

"I miss you too.." halos maluhang ani nya kaya tinapik ko siya sa braso.

"Bakit iiyak?!"

"I'm just happy to see you here."  i give Daddy an accusing look.

Alam ko naman bakit nya ako pinatawag. We have a deal. Pinagbigyan nya na ako sa gusto ko and now payback time.

Napamana niya na kasi kay Ate ang construction company namin that's why he's asking me to hold our hotels and resorts.

Okay naman sa akin yun, mas gusto ko yun kaysa sa maalikabok na construction. Hehe

"You're just happy because mapapasa mo na sakin ang trabaho mo.." pairap kong sagot sa kanya..

"Hahaha! I think mas matutuwa ka kaysa sakin." he gave me a playful smile..

I raised my eye brow..

We heard a soft knock sa door ni Daddy.

"Come in!" sagot ni Daddy..

Narinig ko naman na bumukas ang pinto.. Maybe his secretary.

"You're just in time.." masayang bati ni Daddy dito.

I lazily look at my watch.. Mag tatanghali na din pala.

"So, Jelay.. Meet your boss!" saad ni Daddy.

"Boss?!" gulat na tanong ko sa kanya..

"Why? Are you expecting to be a boss instantly? You need to be trained first. And here she is! You're boss. Tingin ko magkakasundo kayo." nilingon ko ang tinuro ni Daddy sa likod ko..

Halos lumuwa at malaglag ako sa kinakaupuan ko.

Fuck!!

*dub *dub *dub *dub

"Bakit siya?!" gulat na tanong ko kay Daddy.

"She's maybe young but she's doing excellent as a New President of their company. And we merged our company to them so she's the perfect boss for you.." nakangiting saad ni Daddy.

Pinaningkitan ko naman siya ng mata. Wala sa usapan namin ito!

Sabi nya, do what ever i want after i graduated but after a year i need to handle our business. He didn't mentioned na itra-trained ako ng ex ko!!

Not technically Ex pero shit!
Kung one week earlier ito nangyari baka nagtatalon pa ako sa tuwa but not now.

She has her family na. Di naman ako ganon ka-desperada para maghabol pa rin. Yes, She.
