Is she's with Jillianne?
I stood up at naglakad palapit sakanya sakanya.
I was so close to her na, but someone hold my wrist and it's stopped me.
'Sir, ano pong ginagawa niyo dito.'
It's Ms. Reyes again.
I removed her hold and i look around.
Pasakay na ng sasakyan Si Red.
'Red! ' i shouted.
And she looked at once pero inalis rin yung tingin.
It's Clearly she's Red.
After a second nagmadali siyang sumakay ng sasakyan niya.
Wait.
Paalis na siya.
I ran to stopped her but I'm too late.
Tumakbo nalang ako papunta sa sasakyan ko at sumakay.
'Sir Sama.'
Sumakay siya ng sasakyan ko.
I do not have time to scold her.
I just let her be with me and i drive na.
I was trying to follow the Car i saw na sinakyan ni Red but suddenly i lost it.
I got distracted because of her noise.
'Dahan dahan naman po kayo mag drive sir."
Sino po bang hinahanap niyo?
'Can you shut up?' i said to her.
Ang ingay niya.
She's super annoying.
Sana hindi ko nalang siya hinired.
I continue drive and i try to look at that car again.
A minutes passed at hindi ko parin nakikita.
Sir sino ba yun?
Heto nanaman kami sa kadaldalan niya.
Malay mo sir makita mo ulit yun bukas.
After 5 years, ngayon ko nalang siya nakita, She heard and saw me but she just ignored me.
They avoiding me.
Hell.
Ang lapit ko na sakanya kanina, pero anong nangyare?!
Sir, may next time pa naman para makita yun.
Hayaan mo i'll help you.
My eyebrows crossed.
I stared her.
'This is your fault, if you didn't stopped me sana naabutan ko siya, sana nakausap ko na siya about her ate.
Pwede bang sa susunod huwag kang makisawsaw?!
Strop trying to be in my personal life problems.
You're job is just a secretary, who provides behind-the-scenes work for my office.
And We're not in my office, Ms. Reyes.' i said to her.
Natahimik siya bigla.
Her expression changed.
'Sorry sir, it wouldn't happen again.' she said at tumingin nalang sa bintana.
Dapat lang.
I lost that chance to know what's happening to Jillianne because of her being pakialamera.
Ano pa bang magagawa ko nangyari na.
All i can do is to wait again na makita sila.
But it's impossible to happen again.
Bumalik na ako sa office and she's still with me.
Kanina pa tahimik.
What she's trying to show? Na nagtatampo siya?
I didn't said anything bad, I just said what she did.
Franzine's Pov.
I got hurt by what he said, kasalanan ko rin naman.
Were in his Office at katahimikan lang ang nagaganap.
I just get my phone and Open social media accounts.
I got 1 message from ig.
It's from @vincentmacoy
He dm'd me but he didn't follow me.
Sayang naman, akala ko finafollow na ako ng pinakacute sakanila.
Pero hindi eh, dapat follow muna bago dm.
Hintayin ko munang i follow niya ako bago ko siya iseen.
Ay wag na, baka iremove niya pa message niya
"So what happened last night Ms. Secretary?"
abah ang dumi ata ng isip.
I Just chuckled.
Naaalala ko tuloy yung kasadboi-yan ni Sir Sandro.
Love, please stay HAHAHAHAHA
'Why are you laughing?' Sir Sandro said.
'Hm? Who's laughing?' i said habang nagpipigil ng tawa.
He didn't answer me na, he just get his phone at nagcheck siguro ng mga emails.
"He show his self being a sadboy."
I replied.
Pagtripan ko kaya si Sir P.
'The sunset still reminding me of you.'
I whispered.
I simply look at him, hindi naman ata niya naaalala yung mga pinsagsasabi niya.
Isa pa.
'Thank you for coming back, love.' i whispered.
I slowly look at him and i saw him looking at me pala.
Inalis ko agad yung tingin ko sakanya at tumalikod.
Ano bang naisip kong gawin.
'Who are you talking with?' he said.
'Wala po sir.' i said.
Ninenerbyos tuloy akong humarap sakanya.
'Why you slept in my Room?' he said.
Parang tanga to.
'Sir, you asked me to stay there.' i said.
Nag please ka pa nga.
'Tell me what you did to me last night.' he said.
Ano? Nagbibiro ba to.
Tingin ata niya ni-rape ko siya.
I slowly turned around and i looked at him.
Seryoso naman yung mukha niya.
'Wala Sir, promise mamatay man kayo ' i said.
I tried to make him laugh by that pero wala naman siyang reaction.
Kunot pa rin yung noo niya.
'Did i drunk talk to you?' he said.
Hala heto na ipapahiya ko na siya sa sarili niya.
'Opo sir , ang sabi niyo I can't lo-'
'shh, stop ok i knew it.' mabilisan niyang sagot.
Kala ata niya mapipigilan niya ako sa kadaldalan ko sakanya.
Huh no way, aasarin muna kita.
'Sir ang sabi nyo I can't lose you again.' i said at ginaya yung mukha niyang umiiyak.
Naka steady at naka Fierce face lang siya.
Wag na nga, baka mafired pa ako ng wala sa Oras.
Tanong ko nalang kaya kung anong meaning ng See you on the other side of the Moon.
Ay hindi be, baka masabihan nanaman akong pakialamera pag nalaman niyang nabasa ko yung sa letter na nasa room niya.
Confused ako eh, bahala na.
"Sir, pwede magtanong?' i said.
Hindi lang niya ako pinansin.
Hindi mo ako mapipigilang magtanong Sandro bahala ka.
Sir, ano pong meaning ng See you on the other side of the moon?' i said.
Napatingin naman siya sakin ng nakatiger look nanaman.
'Did you read the letter in my room?' he said with his crossed eyebrows.
anong isasagot ko.
Magdahilan ka nalang Franzine, ginusto mong magtanong eh.
'Yung kaibigan ko po kase, chinat ako ng Ganyan.' dahilan ko sakanya.
'What do you think?' he said.
'Sir kaya nga po nagtatanong ako because i have no idea.' i said.
'If i said what it means, you will leave my office.'
'Now, you want me to say it or not?' he said.
Nakakainis naman to.
'Ah sir walang ibang choices?' i said.
'Just yes or no, Ms. Reyes.' he said.
Sige na nga.
'Or po sir.' i said.
'What ever.' he said and umirap.
Nagfocus na ulit siya sa Phone niya.
Gusto ko talagang malaman ibig sabihin eh, malay mo magamit ko pa sa lovelife yung words na yon.
'Yes na sir.' i said.
He looked at me and drop his phone on his desk.
'It's a good bye.' he said.
No.
Yun lang?
Ang haba ng words tapos Good bye lang?
"No possibility to meet or see that person again." He added.
He get his phone at may tinext ata.
Kaya naman pala uminom si Kuya mo Sandro.
Grabe naman pala yung meaning.
A kala ko nakalimutan na niya yung sinabi niya, hindi pa pala.
'Now leave.' he said.
'say Goodbye muna.' i said.
At ayun na nga, tumingin nanaman siya sakin ng naka tiger look.
Joke lang, hindi mabiro.
I stood up and get my things.
Nakalabas na ako at sasara ko na dapat yung door ng office niya pero kailangan maasar ko muna siya.
'Sir.' i said.
But he just ignored me.
"Stay sadboy." I said at sinara agad yung pinto.
Sandro's Pov.
She's so weird, kanina lang nagtatampo siya because i scolded her tapos bigla biglang nag iba yung mood niya.
My phone Rings
It's Mavrick.
I answered him and i just let him speak.
'Sir, we saw her Sister kanina sa Batac.' he said.
'I knew it first before you, did you see the plate number of the Car?' i said.
'No sir.' he said.
I suddenly ended the call.
They are useless.
Nakakainis.
Anong saysay ng nakita lang nila.
So dumb.
The day passed, at gabi nanaman.
9pm
I'm already here sa Bahay at nakakulong sa Kwarto.
I was about to sleep na but suddenly my phone vibrated.
Someone texted me.
It was from Ms. Reyes.
"Sir, sure ka? Sakin na tong polo mo?"
I just seen it at hindi siya nireplayan.
Baka pag nag reply lang ako mag ingay siya kahit sa text.
I go to my Facebook and tried to find her Acc but i think she doesn't have one.
I checked sa Ig at sinearch yung name niya.
Oh she have Ig acc.
4k followers, weak.
I'm a Marcos, and im her boss but she's not even following me.
Sabagay, i'll not followback her rin naman.
Nakaprivate pa kala mo naman sobrang sikat.
What should i do kaya para mahirapan siya sa Trabaho.
Napatawa nalang ako sa naisip ko.
"Ms. Reyes, go to my Office and get my ballpen, bring it here in our house.
." I texted her.
And there's no a seconds pa pero nagreply na agad siya.
"Sir, are you serious?"
I just seen it.
At hindi siya nireplayan para pumunta nalang siya mismo dito sa bahay.
A seconds passed and she called me.
I answered the call at pinatay ko rin agad.
Bahala siya, inaasar nyako kanina eh.
A minutes passed, Vinny's calling me sa baba.
I leave my room at pumunta sa sala with them.
'Why?' i said.
'Here's the ballpen, Franze message me to give it to you.' he said and he held the ballpen.
Why they are text mates?
'Stop calling her Franze, her name is Franzine.' i said to him and get the ballpen.
I drop it sa trashcan.
Paakyat na ako sa hagdan and Vinny shouted.
'Sorry kuya!'
I just ignored him at nagkulong na sa Kwarto.
Call me sensitive but Hearing her name from the other people makes me sad.
I just lay in my bed and trying to sleep .
Ugh I can't sleep.
Franzine's Pov.
"I said get my ballpen in my office and bring it here in my Room, I'm waiting Ms. Reyes."
A message again from him.
Ballpen lang jusko napakamapili pa.
"Isiseen mo lang ako? You want me to fired you? Bring it here!"
Heto na Boss P.
Ano pa bang choice ko kung hindi pumunta sa Office niya at kumuha ng BALLPEN.
I changed my pajamas into pants at naghanap na agad ng Taxi.
It's already 8:20pm, may sira din pala tong Si Sandro.
A minutes passed at nakarating na ako sa office.
I get the Ballpen, kinuha ko na lahat ng ballpen niya baka kasi sabihin niya kulang at pabalikin pa 'ko.
Pinaghintay ko lang yung taxi driver sa labas para sasakyan niya nalang ulit yung sakyan ko.
I got the ballpens at nakarating kami sa bahay nila ng 8:40pm.
Sir.. katok ko sa gate nila.
After a second, someone opened the Gate na.
Yaya ata nila to.
Secretary po ni Sir Sandro to. I said.
She let me in at sinamahan ako sa Loob .
Nasa sala lahat sila maliban kay Sandro.
Simon Caught me.
'Oh why you're here?' he said and approached me.
He gave me a fist bump at ganun rin sila Vinny and their Fam.
'Hello po, Pinakuha lang po ni sir Sandro sakin yung Ballpen niya sa Office.' i said to them at pinakita yung ballpen.
Bbm just chuckled.
'We have a lot of pens here.' he said.
Tumawa nalang din ako.
'Yung anak nyo po kasi loko loko.' i said to him.
'Pagpasensyahan mo na, may pinagdadaanan lang yan matagal na.'
He said at tumango lang ako.
Pinapunta nila ako dito sa taas at im in front of Sir Sandro's Room na.
I knocked but his not answering me.
So pumasok nalang ako.
I saw him crying.
Nakapatong lang yung braso niya sa mata niya habang umiiyak.
He's not making any noise.
But i know, crying in silence is much hurts.
'Sir, san ko po lalagay to?' i said.
'Closed my door.' sagot niya.
'Sir, lalabas na din po ba ako?' tanong ko.
He just ignored me.
So sinara ko nalang yung pintuan at umupo sa couch niya.
'Sir, ok ka lang?' tanong ko sakanya.
'Stop asking when you already know the answer.' he said.
Ka-asar, buti nga tinanong ko pa.
'Sir, san ko lalagay yung ballpen niyo?' tanong ko sakanya.
'I don't need it anymore.' he said.
Napaka
Hmmm! nagtitimpi lang talaga ako.
I put it on his desk at umalis na sa Room niya.
Bumaba na ako ng hagdan at nagpaalam na sa Marcos Fam.
A minutes passed at nakauwi na ulit ako.
Vinny's Pov.
Franzine is Nice, maybe my kuya would like her soon.
She has a similarities with Jillianne.
If my kuya become her suitor hindi na ako magtataka.
But I don't want Jillianne to replace by someone in my kuya's heart.
Gusto ko si Jillianne for my Kuya, I don't want anyone else.
Sandro's Pov.
I fell asleep while im crying last night, maga tuloy yung mata ko ng konti.
I washed my face at nag ayos.
It's already 10am.
Naligo na ako and i went in to my office.
My Secretary's not here yet, she's late.
Babawasan ko sweldo niya.
'Sir.' someone said at kumatok.
'Come in.' i said.
It's Trixie, my assistant.
'Yes?' i said.
'Grand opening po ng Sandbox mamaya sa pagudpud.' she said
I almost forget it, oo nga pala.
'Can we go first there na naman diba?'
I ask.
I want to see it na.
'Yeah sir, it's up to you.' she said.
'Then let's go.' i said.
Were here na sa labas ng Office and were waiting nalang sa Driver ko na bumaba.
A second passed at nakababa na siya.
Were in the Van and Trixie was about to close the door but there's someone who pulled it.
'Sir, Sama.'
It was Ms. Reyes.
Nakapasok na siya at sinara na niya yung pinto.
'Move there.' i said to her.
Pinapalipat ko siya sa tabi ng driver.
Di naman kami close para tumabi sakin.
'Mamaya nalang pag pabalik, sir. nakasakay na ako oh' she said.
'I said move there.' i said with my not so loud voice.
'Oh eto na.' she whispered at bumaba ng sasakyan.
Sinara niya ng malakas yung pintuan.
And finally, she moved there.
Trixie is beside me and Ms Reyes is beside the driver.
'Sir San punta?' she said.
And i just ignored her.
Pag sinagot ko lang siya, magtatanong ulit yan hanggang sa dumaldal na siya.
'Ma'am, San tayo pupunta?' she whispered to Trixie.
Sinagot naman siya Ni Trixie ng "pagudpud."
A minutes passed and we arrived here.
Kumain muna kami with the other officials at nakipagkwentuhan.
'Congrats for this Project.' Kons Saul Lazo Said.
I just smiled.
This achievement is not just for me, it's for Jillianne.
All i did is because of her.
'Sir, anong project?' my Secretary said.
'Use your eyes.' i said and she looked around.
Ang dami na ngang nakalagay na Sandbox flags tapos hindi niya pa alam.
A minutes passed at ang dami ng taong nagsisipuntahan.
We started the opening and we try to use the gadgets there.
Maganda, maayos.
An hour passed at bumalik na rin agad ako sa Office.
It's already 3pm.
Someone messaged me.
Magcelebrate daw kami.
Hindi ko na tinanggihan, inuman yun eh.
'Sir, san tayo pupunta?' Ms. Reyes said.
'You don't have to go with me, you can go home.' i said at umalis na ng office.
'Kuya, let's go.' i said to my Driver.
Baka hindi na ako makapagdrive mamaya dahil lasing na ko kaya i called him to drive.
After a minutes, nakarating na kami.
Naupo muna ako dito sa tabi nila and they announced na advance bday celebration ko na din pala to.
(Next month pa bday ni Sandro dito, walang kokontra.)
Pinagsalita na din nila ako at nagpasalamat na din ako dahil sa maagang celebration.
4:30pm na and the celebration starts pero hindi parin kami nag iinuman.
'You're getting older at balita ko you still don't have girlfriend.' my seatmate said.
He's one of the officials rin dito, he's Mr. Mark. He look like Senior citizen.
'Opo, still waiting for the one.' i said.
'May papakilala ako sayo mamaya, akong bahala sayo.' he said.
I just chuckled.
Hindi naman talaga ako naghihintay ng iba, im still waiting for the one who i know na malabo ng bumalik.
A minutes passed at tumayo muna si Sir Mark, may pinuntahan ata sa labas.
Finally! They served the beers.
I get one beer sa isang case and pinabukas ko na.
I was about to drink it but i heard a familiar voice and word.
'Sir?'
Yes, she's the only girl who always annoy me.
